Well, you caught us. We do not feel required to tell the truth; in fact, we are required not to tell the truth. Everything we say (including "Good morning!" and "How are you?") is propaganda.
It doesn't stop there. (After years of deception, it is a relief to get this off my chest.) Every week I exhort the members of my LDS ward to lie, cheat, and steal.

I know what your reply will be, that every church has the right and need to expell those who don’t believe their core tenets - and I certainly agree (just as the Catholics excommunicated Gallileo and Martin Luther). But with a little research, one will find that ever since Joseph Smith, Mormons have had to excommunicate at a ferocious pace in order to keep from falling apart.
Here is a question for you to spin, Who was the original God the Mother who produced all the Spirit Children? Did you put her out to pasture like a cow???
Good one Logo. Almost you had me convinced, but, knowing the twisted Mormon ways, I chose to believe the opposite of the opposite minus the truth squared, and came up with...
