which leads another to reply why the X-er’s left and when it was pointed out why most left, it was called being judgmental

One supposes to KNOW why others leave the mormon church, making accusations of "wanting to sin"...

well, I "wanted to sin" by drinking a glass of iced tea, a cup of coffee, a glass of wine with a meal, wanted to wear any darned underwear I chose to wear, pay my tithe to a church because I wanted to honor God and help my church, not because I was coerced into paying so that I could reach some MAN'S idea of "exaltation", wanted to be able to attend the geographical church of MY choice, not be forced into attending a certain one by church leaders, wanted my children to be able to have their friends and families attend their weddings according to THEIR desires, not be forced to leave some out of the wedding party because they were "unworthy". and if I chose to leave a church, as I have done since, just say goodbye to my pastor and ministers and have my records transferred to another, as MOST Christians feel free to do......Oh, yeah, I wanted to sin all right!

And I ENJOY all this "sinning"...having a cup of nice coffee right at this minute. Beats the heck out of that nasty Postum!
