about a year ago I came on here after questioning my belief in the LDS church. I spent the last year or so reading this site and others and staying away from all things related to the LDS church. I even got my wife and kids to stop attending. The result? I prefer life in the church over what this last year has been. Do I believe everything 100%, no. But some faith is better than what I have found outside of it, so I will take a modified approach to my membership. No tithing, no calling, attend when I want to, and enjoy the social and spiritual side that at times exists within the church. Do I think it is the one true church, no. But I do believe that they have some good intentions, yes, and for those who are simple minded they may feel controlled or even scared to go against the grain, but for me and my family we will continue to love God and love our fellow man. Those are the commandments we will live by.
the reason I want to thank the board is that I would have left and stayed bitter if I hadn't had the chance to vent on here at times, and see just how unhappy so many of you still are after all the years of separation from the LDS church. Just showed me what I did not want for myself in the future. Good luck to each of you on your journey, and may you find some happiness in your life.
