I saw a sign in Salina, UT, that said, "Quitting is hard, but it's worth it." It's for addiction counseling, but I like to think it's about Mormonism. But maybe the church qualifies as an addiction.

I think it does become an addiction. I really like some of the people in my ward and I'll miss their freindship once I leave for good. The social aspect of mormonism makes it very appealing - if it were just another church it would be great.

But all the temple BS, the coprolites in SLC, the constant pressure to tithe and support other church functions makes it unbearable. And then there's the history of its founding...too much for a rational person to accept, you know what I mean?

I just re-read my post - sounds like a junkie:

I really like the way the drugs make me feel, but it's hell paying the price to get them on the street...

I would add one adjective to this statement, which I agree applies to addictions and the Mormoney church equally.....

Quitting is DAM hard, but it's worth it.
