The truth really scares Mormons. They keep harping on how they have ‘the Truth’ etc, but in reality, they would rather live a comfortable lie than deal with the harsh truth or entertain the notion that Mormonism, and thus their entire life, is a lie.
It really is scary for them, it was for me but I resolved that I wanted to know the truth, even if it meant giving up everything and so I pressed on. Most Mormons just put the doubts up on a shelf and ignore them rather than really investigate.
reaganaut, you had and have amazing courage.
Anytime you invalidate someone’s reality, they resent it.
The problem Mormons face is that the have been deceived into trading objective truth for subjective feelings. Feelings are all they have left now.
Feelings are intensely personal and hard to give up and admit you were wrong. I wish for the Mormons here that they would ask why Christianity is saturated in facts and Mormonism has only feelings? Has God changed?
