That's the exact quote my sisters MIL said to me when she found out I resigned. She had her hand on my shoulder and was looking as sincere and deeply into my eyes as she could when she said it. I didn't know if I was supposed to be angry or if I was supposed to bust out laughing. So I kept my composure and just responded with, "well, if heaven is just going to be made up of stuffy, self righteous Mormons, I can't say I share in the sadness".
Kind of reminds me of that joke: A guy dies and gets to the pearly gates. St. Peter is there to meet him. He escorts him around, giving him the grand tour. The guy is pretty shocked to see Muslims, Hindu, evangelicals, Catholics, Buddhists, etc walking around. He was happy everyone made it. Everyone was freely walking around and having a great time. Then they walked by this huge walled city. The guy asked St. Peter who that was for. St. Peter simply said, "oh yeah, we made that for the Mormons. They think they're the only ones here". Haha
