As I have posted many times before, the signal most angering thing about Mormonism for me is this. The "Born and Breed" "cradle to grave" Mormons that I know who apear to be so strong in their faith, and "Have no doubt that it is true" yet have never known anything else and have been indoctrinated in it since birth. When I tell them "You or so and so is a Mormon because yo were born into a Mormon family" or try to explain to them that people of different religions are just as convinced as them that their faith is the only right one, and some of them were not born, raised, and indoctrinated in it. I get this explanation, "A parents testimony will only take somone so far" or "There comes a point when everyone (including cradle to grave Mormons) have to gain their own testimonies." Did this ever bother anybody? Did you ever use this explantion for other people or yourself? I really do not buy this, I think it is just purly more bull shit cognitative dissonance! Am I right or wrong?
