Hi, I’m Marishia

Chino Blanco, August 19, 2010May 17, 2011

In this post, we’re chatting with the author of a mormon.org profile that caught our attention.

Chino,

I’m sad for people like you because you deny the fullness of the true Gospel of Jesus Christ. You choose to put down others like myself who have finally found peace and acceptance with their homosexuality. Rather than be happy for the few of us who are free from depression and suicidal thoughts, you and your friends choose to tear us apart, falsely accuse us and condemn us without ever even talking to us or knowing us. You will never understand the amazing witness I received from the Holy Spirit, if you never accept the Savior and his true gospel fully. I never underwent any Church treatment. I am not involved with any PR for Mufi Hannemann. You and your friends are wrong on everything you have tried to accuse me of.

I hope and pray that you will receive the special witness like I did because then you’ll know for yourself what others like me are talking about.

God bless you Chino.

Aloha,
Marishia.

April 23, 2011May 31, 2011

Many Mormons understand their orientation to be to their spouse. This is commendable, because it demonstrates dedication and fidelity. However, a spouse for Latter-day Saints means someone of the opposite gender. Homosexuality gets compartmentalized as an affliction that can lead to selfishness if not kept in check. This selfishness is…

    You didn’t miss much, Lisa. Marishia’s profile is back up.

    And to anyone else reading, please feel free to read my #48 and enjoy a chuckle at my expense. I earned it. 😉

    Marishia makes the news (or at least, a Salt Lake Tribune blog).
