Posted from earlier thread but it reminds us all of the marketing in hushed tones by the Mormon Church - things being too sacred (despite the hosanna shout and First Vision being shown to the corners of globe), rumors of revelations (gaslighting that there is more) and faith promoting folklore (GC talks, celebrity missionary stories, throw in status locale seeking temples in there) manufactured to make the church seem like something - really anything, than what it is - an impotent petty cash cow)

LowPriest you have discovered the secret of the Mormon Church - that there is no secret.
It keeps people running on a hamster wheel over the fear of loss when in actuality it is just creating faith-based mental illness.
It is you that chooses to seek help and in regards to your family you can love them and try to help where you can but it doesn't mean you should be required to live a life of mental illness too.
The world is a great place. There are good people all over.
It might surprise you who the real heroes are.
(PS they rarely are ever mentioned over a mormon pulpit that is reserved for praising mormon leadership only)
