Just got a call from one of my "old" friends, the current Stake President. I haven't seen him in 15 years. We started talking and he couldn't believe I had left the church (I was once a Bishop). He asked, what happened? I said I had a few bad experiences in the church that made me wonder. It led me to research the church in great detail. That research led me to the conclusion that the church was false and a giant fraud. He then asked me, to please come back. I said, how I could I, given what I know and what I believe. He said, give it another chance. I know you were offended. I said, yes, but that has nothing to do with me leaving--rather, it is my research of JS, BY, polygamy, etc. That is what caused me to leave--not because I was offended or anything else. It is false. He said again, I wish you would come back--we need you. I DON'T THINK HE EVER UNDERSTOOD WHAT I WAS SAYING.
