And the internet quickly locates an article explaining why quitmormon.com has run into headwinds from the church. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.the...ternet-seo-lds

My roomie the jack mormon had left Utah and maybe I can see why ?
Localy we got yer fairly hardcore christian fundamentalist types who originaly came from yurp, not mo mo's but they will also send round their "mafia" to rescue those who try to stray, to go skiing or climbing instead of to church so its not only family and friends trying to quit, it can effect your business opurtoonities in the small town, they do alot of business with one another and it is well known they will fuck each other over !!
we also have a small Mormon church which is unusual up here in canada eh, the guys will wander around town knock on a few doors and ask if you need any help, they helped my buddy move a bunch of top soil into his garden, I supose smithers aint a bad place to do a 2 yr missionLee Lau - xxx-er is the laziest Asian canuck I know

I had a ski bro who claimed we could become ministers by filling out a form in the Rolling Stone want adds which then would allow us ecclesiastical discounts or at least tax write offs on ski gear& ski vacations
which brings up the question what IS the difference between a church and a cult ??
how does one go about getting church status ?
what are the nuts and bolts of this scam (?)Lee Lau - xxx-er is the laziest Asian canuck I know

You posted a link in an attempt to make departure from the LDS look simple thx to the internet. I posted an article in which it was explained that the site is running into issues with no clear solution ahead.
This latest hurdle will necessitate an open call for notaries nationwide on r/exmormon. Naugle is not a notary, and even if he was, he would not be able to notarize requests for his own clients. Many people have volunteered to help him manage the site in the past: Evan Lloyd says he’s reached out and offered his services, and there are legions of Redditors ready to volunteer. But Naugle rarely deploys helpers.
“No one’s as reliable as yourself,” he says, “and this is very sensitive, confidential stuff, too, so I don’t really feel comfortable just sending an email to a random person that I met on the internet.”
The better alternative is for LDS to use their money and organizational power to set up a simple internet process that does not involve confronting your local pope/prophet/anointed father or whatever term is appropriate. I’m not holding my breath for that one.

Meanwhile, the tragic side of credulity:
Christianity is a religion built on an account of a physical resurrection. But it is rare to see 21st-century American Christians praying for the dead to be raised in real time. Since last weekend, however, a prominent megachurch in Northern California has been calling on its members and followers to “pray for a miracle of resurrection” for a 2-year-old girl who died last weekend.
Olive Alayne Heiligenthal stopped breathing early last Saturday, according to a statement from Bethel Church spokesperson Aaron Tesauro. The circumstances are unclear, but the family called 911, and medical professionals attempted to resuscitate her at the family’s home and at the hospital. She was pronounced dead, and the church said her body has been at the Shasta County Coroner’s office since Saturday. Soon afterward, her mother posted a desperate request on Instagram. “We are asking for bold, unified prayers from the global church to stand with us in belief that He will raise this little girl back to life,” Kalley Heiligenthal wrote on Instagram, accompanied by a photograph of Olive playing outside. “Her time here is not done.”

And my point is that despite ongoing issues the quitmormon route is still easier than dealing with the local leadership.
LDS.inc has no incentive to facilitate the process. They take every possible step to maintain membership. Again, not a cult. And the word you're looking for is Bishop.

Speaking of stupid Christians, did anybody watch CNN and see Chris Como shred the evangelical...pretty entertaining.
I agree it is a constitutional right for Americans to be assholes...its just too bad that so many take the opportunity...iscariot

According to a recent poll from the Public Religion Research Institute, 77% of white evangelical Protestants approve of the job Trump is doing in office, including half who strongly approve. And nearly all — 98% — of Republican white evangelical Protestants said they opposed Trump’s impeachment, the institute found.
