“WHAT ‘sucessful lifestyle’??!?”
Compared to the kinds of lifestyle the NYT approves of I’d say the majority of Mormons are vastly successful at raising families. They are NOT perfect and I know plenty of ex-Mormons in our church and would NEVER advise anyone to become a Mormon. That said, compare them to what the NYT approves of and the Mormons are, by far, successful.
That doesn’t mean they are sucessful. My point is that there is a lot of abuse, prescription drug abuse, lying, taking fathers away from families in order to fill their church jobs (Bishop is a 40 hour job in addition to their day jobs every week so the families are neglected), depression, etc.
The propaganda they send out is that they have good families, good values, etc. Only once you get in the middle of it do you see that it is all a lie. I believed they had successful and good family values UNTIL I joined and became one of them and saw what really went on in these so called ‘perfect’ families.
It is sad and it is angering that people fall for the lies the Morg tell.
You actually do not know any mormons do you?
