It's been 19 years since I first mistakenly stumbled onto this board, the result being a wild ride down the rabbit hole of Mormonism. At that time I was seeking understand and answers to some difficult information I had run across on the F.A.I.R. Mormon website regarding Smith's marrying other men's wives better known as polyandry, a term that at that time was completely new to me.

A poster on this board suggested that I read B H Roberts "Studies of the Book of Mormon" I do not know who that poster was other than perhaps a Swedish lady, so I've never been able to fully thank her. Since that fateful day, my life has never been the same.

Despite not posting here any longer, I still hold this board and those who post here in great esteem.

Every year as the Wasatch Mountains turn once again to their fall colors, I'm reminded of just how important this board was to helping me escape Mormonism and live an authentic life based in reality instead of the pre-packaged, one size fits all, life I was born into.

As I'm reflecting on Recovery from Mormonism and life it helped free me of, I wanted to just give you all a shout out and let you know that Life is good. Cheers and take care until next time. Cr@ig

What is your personal life like now? I think I remember you had a believing wife like me? Thus Cr@ig versus Craig? Am I remembering right?

Yes you remember correctly. Wife still every bit a Believer but she’s come to accept me for me. Life is good. I live a completely non Mormon life.

Thanks for the reply. I've been married for 25 years to a believer. I was able to talk her out of church yesterday to go on a hike. It was wonderful. I'm glad you're doing well.

Greetings Cr@ig. Of course I remember you. Your moniker always stuck out. My attendance on this board follows a sinusoidal curve. Always glad to see the other old-timers.

Best Wishes,


HH =)

Rarely post anymore

MANY MORE important, interesting, FUN, and exciting things to do. I am a mormonomore. A real ufotofu, in fact.

I DON'T CARE about mormonizm - never did.
Just pop in from time and place and back in time again, to see what's new... And who's old, Bold, and cold, I mean Hot! And what not!

Business, Busyness, and Dizziness (probably from one of the first two) keep me away... plus, I PLAY, which sometimes takes me away. Know what I Say?

It always brings me back though...
And usually in one 'PEACE'.

American Pie ^ high in the sky (and so am I)~

P.S. ○ I do tongue in cheek (and sometimes bite my tongue, cheek, and/ or lip) sometimes, and wonder... they can't see if you're sticking your tongue - or your neck - out to do this. Besides, a rhyme ain't no crime. Not this time!

What's a creative transformer to do on a happy note? Have brunch?
