So, I'm new here obviously and I'm sorry if this is in the wrong spot. I'm a 17 year old priest having some pretty strong intellectual questions go through my head about the church. I should say, I've only ever slightly grazed these topics with my mom and they were stopped, I wouldn't even try with my dad. But anyway, it's the time where I'm starting to really deeply think of everything for myself independently, and I just can't feel the spirit of the church. With so many members vehemently denying everything from evolution to homosexuality's place in society, I just have trouble accepting everything. I've seen the whole deal where someone will have a question and everyone says "talk to the bishop" but that's even a problem within itself. I don't understand how any time someone has a legitimate doubt about something in the Book of Mormon, they just aren't "spiritually partaking". Anyway, to stop rambling, any words or anything would be fantastic, I just wanted to get my thoughts out there to open minded people and have them talk back, so again, thank you.
