In a church where we’re supposed to care about each other’s spiritual well-being, in the weeks since the stats about young women leaving came out I haven’t detected any official acknowledgment that there might be a problem. Pushback? Yes. Spin? Plenty. Curiosity? None. "There’s some real pain among the women of this church. There just is. Not all women, but any is too many within the body of Christ. I can’t think of a justification for arguing with others’ pain." —Susan

It’s a commonly stated idea that politics and religion don’t mix, but for many Latter-day Saints it seems there’s no separating the two. And this fuzzy boundary extends beyond the opinions and practices of individual members: While claiming neutrality regarding political parties and candidates, Church leadership sometimes officially “addresses issues it believes to have significant moral consequences.” In Episode 274, Cynthia and Susan dip a conversational toe in this charged topic—at last!—with political ju**ie (and ALSSI team member) Sarah Morse. Grab your popcorn and your ballot ... but also your curiosity, imagination, and personal authority. Let’s talk politics!

We lose so much richness when people like Mary feel that they have to closely guard their pearls (meaning: their ideas, their diversity, their whole selves).

Talk about a fraught topic! For more conversation about blessings, check the archives--episodes 60, 106, and 193. We barely scratched the surface with Laura on this week's episode.

On this week's episode, Dr. Riess explains that many people find it easier to leave the church today compared to the 70s and 80s, when a defector might be the only person they know making such a choice. What has been your experience with this "herd effect" over the years?

In recent years, young women have been told with increasing volume and frequency what they can't do with their bodies (get an abortion) and what they should do with their bodies (have more children, and do it sooner rather than later). This contributes to a widening political gap between young men and young women.
