I was curious if the Mormon Church played any games with any of you to keep you from resigning or delaying the process?
After I sent in my first written resignation, they tried a few tactics to get me to "come in and talk about it" saying they couldn't process my resignation until I do. It took another more serious letter of resignation, a stern written warning to the local bishop to stop playing with me, and a mild threat of legal action to get them to finally acknowledge my resignation and to send me a paper stating that they really did remove me as a member.
I remember someone telling me once that only cults make it this difficult to leave. Is that true? I haven't really thought about the Mormon Church being a cult--just a very different religion.
