主题：【文摘】打包出售信仰 -- 遛猫的老鼠

Up for sale is my Faith and membership in the LDS (Mormon) church.

Attention eBay Trust & Safety, there is a physical item for sale, the book pictured are the "Scriptures" that the Buyer will be receiving upon auction end.

I was born and raised LDS (Mormon) and over the years have had conflicts with the teachings. However, with their latest interjection on the political scene regarding the rights of Americans to marry whom they please (California's Proposition 8), I can no longer stand by and give my tacet support. Therefore I am putting up for auction my faith.

To the winner of this auction goes my scriptures (Quadruple combination book containing: The Holy Bible, Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants and The Pearl of Great Price), a copy of a notarized letter requesting my name be stricken from the LDS records, a full year of attendance / public support of the church, synagogue, temple or political place of your choosing, and 10% of the proceeds from this auction will to go to said organization.

Once I send you the book, which is in used but Like-New condition with select passages highlighted, I will attend services or meetings publicly or privately on a regular basis on a schedule which the winner shall choose, however, I will attend at a maximum 1 event per week. Venues must be within 15 miles of my home or transportation costs must be included.

*This is not an attempt to slander or defame in any way the LDS Church or its members' I believe them to be a worthwhile group with good intentions, nevertheless, their views standards and goals no longer match or reflect mine. There really is no animosity on my side, just a difference of opinion*
