Hi there! This community is intended to be welcoming and positive. Here are some guidelines to keep it that way:

1. Give people basic respect. Follow the general Lemmy.world community guidelines.

2. Post on topic. Posts here are intended to relate to LDS religious life and practice.

3. General positivity towards being part of the LDS community. Some challenging questions and heterodoxy are allowed, and moderators aren't judges of your "faithfulness". But if the primary purpose of your post is to criticize the LDS movement, Joseph Smith, or LDS scripture, then this is the wrong forum for that!

4. Cite your sources! You can 🔗 hyperlink to talks, scriptures, and news sources to substantiate your opinions, like this: the idea for this community's name, we_lds, came from D&C 128:18.

Posts that are disrespectful, off-topic, anti-LDS, or unsubstantiated may be deleted, at moderators' discretion.
