To remain a devout Mormon, or merely a Christian, requires a sense of reasoning that excludes rational thought.

I agree, but there are those who will dispute what "rational thought" is.

It's weird... But a prime example is the fact that there are people who think golf is a good spoiled!! Is that rational or irrational?

I assume you meant, "...a good walk spoiled...?"

And that's clearly irrational.
If you need to ask me why, you're also clearly irrational!

Mormon reason is whatever the cult defines it as being.

A TBM who follows and obeys the rules of the cult has his world and his reason entirely defined for him. The indoctrination a TBM receives in the cult is seen in behavior control, information control, thought control. and emotional control. He is only a puppet on a string.

You're mixing up your mormonism and your other stories, fables and paths.

Ironic a mormon-curious person is an 'investigator'?

So are you simply sharing an observation?
