It's also sad that he basically tells the young women to not get married if they don't meet a worthy lds man. Don't you think one can be a good Mormon regardless if they are sealed in this life or the next?

Do you know where i can find a copy of the extermination letter? Also I thought it was interesting that Joseph Prophesied that Gov boggs would die a violent death, after which he sent Porter Rockwell to assassinate him, failing in the assassination attempt.

I know mormons always say that the early church was persecuted, but im trying to learn more about governor boggs and the extermination order. The more i learn, the more i see the other side of the story. The governor probably looked at the mormons as dangerous because of statements their leaders said, with regards to the destruction of us cities, and the overthrow of their government. Do any o

What are things to say that are quick and to the point to cause cog dis to the sheeple. I need to add to this short list. Reasons Mormonism is false. They can not prove it, but there are many facts that disprove it. (Book of Mormon errors, dna testing, lack of archaeological evidence, etc) Believing in the church is based on feelings. Many people have claimed the spirit tells them the

I just spend some time looking at mission.net and a facebook group for mission alumni for the mission that i served in. It brought back a flood of memories, feelings, and emotions that i experienced while on a mission. It reminded me of the time when things were simple and i was ignorant. Its so hard to explain what it is like to actually be on a mission to somebody unless they have been the

so basically, one reason is because the church helps some people deal with bad life experiences, like somebody dying.

I believed in mormonism for 24 years. It took me that long to change my views. When kids are young in the church, they sing primary songs like "Follow the prophet" which reinforces the churches teaching onto them. They go up to the pulpit on F&T meetings and bear their testimony by saying exactly what their parents whisper into their ears. Kids believe what they are told by the

I think it might be smart to do a little more research on this. Im all about the church stopping their harrassment of people all over the world, but im pretty sure that some missions just changed borders, or maybe even split to form new missions. For example, i served in oregon, but before the oregon mission was formed, there was a northwest mission, which split into 4 different missions.
