When David Archuleta came out, his mom told him she loved him but loved God more. One year later she walked away from the Mormon church and told him if he was going to hell they were all going with him.

      TW SUICIDE/religious abuse When my grandmother found out I was suicidal and attempted to comfort me, she told me that “she loved me but loves God more” she told me that people who commit were doomed to hell for eternity. This broke my heart as she was the only family I had fr that wasn’t physically abusive. We’ve gotten better since then but it still hurts at times

      I went from: “oh thank goodness my Mormon mom isn’t that bad” to “oh… sucks my Mormon mom would never say something so cool.”

      If my mom told me that I’d cut her off immediately. Thankfully I will forever stay in the closet to avoid uncomfortable truths and living life to the fullest

    4. I remember hearing something about this before, and it is still such a wonderful sign of growth and at least love, real love, not the indoctrinated fear that says it’s ‘about God’, but then results in people, acting cruelly.

      And I’m glad that he has that support.
