Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

Young Mormons claim to be LGTBQ+ at a percentage that is double digits higher than the national average?

If I were to use the kind of reasoning I was taught in church I could only come to one conclusion: Mormonism is the tool that Satan uses to turn kids gay and transgender.

Just listened to the Mormonland podcast about this. It was very informative.
