[P-Marlowe]

They say that if you throw a rock into a pack of dogs, the one that barks the loudest is the one that got hit.

When I was an LDS, I did not look upon those who were trying to show me the error of my ways as being evil, I just thought they were wrong. They did not hate me, in fact, I knew that they actually had my best interests at heart. I had their best interests at heart. We both had the same motives-- to show the other person the error of their ways. Turned out, I was the one that was wrong.

I can only thank God that my heart was not so hardened that I was unable to see the truth when God revealed it to me.

Thats what my pastor always says. Its true. I was lucky that my grandmothers breaking away from the LDS church is what caused my dad to raise us as jack-mormons. When I excepted the Lord, I thought I was a Mormon until I started reading the Bible. I had never been in any other church but the Mormon church, and no one had told me any thing about what church to join, or not join. My mothers, mother had taken us to Mormon church twice a week while we were growing up. I wasn't too interested in religion, but always loved the Lord and knew He was real. When I was 15, I had a wonderful born again experience. It was at a Christian rock concert. I came home, and couldn't get enough of reading the Bible. Before I ever went to a Bible Study, or Church I knew I was not a Mormon just from reading the Bible. I was lucky that my mind was not all clouded with mens religious garbage.

It was later on when I started studying my family history that I found out what Mormonism, and the Mormon doctrine was all about.
