Just stopped by on the 15th anniversary of my departing LDS, Inc. to let you know all is well. Since leaving the Church life has never been better! Perhaps most gratifying is the freedom to think and believe whatever I choose and to act freely on those beliefs. In retrospect, I would say that "freedom" from dogma, doctrine, false beliefs and the dictates of narrow-minded General Authorities has been liberating.
One of my most astonishing "revelations" after having left the Church was the realization that the priesthood is meaningless. Priesthood leaders (bishops, GA's, the Prophet) only have authority inasmuch as people are willing to give it to them. They are just ordinary men in a man-made institution dispensing myths and magic wrapped in important sounding words.
Well, I've already written more than I originally intended so I'll sign off. My best wishes to one and all! And to the Admin, keep up the good work.
