I do know that any respect that I had for them -- they can find their own path to God as long as it doesn't hurt me -- is obviously over. I just can't tell who the good people are and the bad people are just from walking down the street, y'know?

Worse than that, for me (as I alluded to last night), I have some good friends who are good people AND Mormons ... and I'm gonna have a hard time telling their obviously good side from their obviously bad side during the future times of our relationships.
In any case, if I can get out of my previous obligation for this evening, I'd like to attend the rally to, yes, process some of my distressing feelings today. I'd certainly like to process them in a more healthy and releasing way than I have so far (which this morning involved a scalding hot shower of water and tears, and a razor blade when the soap was not enough to wash away the disgusting filth I felt.)
Hmmm, maybe I need psychotherapy instead.
And of course, I'm mindful of LPSE and Tom's story last night of meeting the day after their 2004 crushing election defeat and falling in love.
Yes, hmmm, rally in WeHo.
