I honestly have a lot of trouble with Mormonism, not so much with the theology as with the authoritarian power structure and the minimal archeological evidence for the BoM.
Having said that, I also think it's incumbent on me to make those challenges in a civilized way without being a screeching, repetitive asshat.
You are quite welcome on FR as far as I am concerned.
Thanks!
your civilized response is...
Appreciated, surprising, and most of all conservative!!!!
JFTR, most organized religion can be called authoritarian by someone, I personally have never felt that way. The plethora of Ex-Mormons here proves that if you don’t like it... LEAVE!
God bless and keep you safe from those who will attack you for being polite to a Mormon.

EVERY mormon that is connected to the SLC power structure should have TROUBLE with their religion!!
It appears that they are DAMNED!!!
"Now if any of you will deny the plurality of wives, and continue to do so, I promise that you will be damned;
and I will go still further and say, take this revelation, or any other revelation that the Lord has given,
and deny it in your feelings, and I promise that you will be damned.

Right; DU??
