My friend was called to work in the Temple. A woman in the temple told her "the Lord may bless you with children" My friend laughed and said Im 58 so I don't think so! She never was able to conceive so I'm sure that was a personal and private subject.

Holiness is in the striving and the struggle to keep the commandments." Why is it struggle? Cog discuss maybe? I'm an exmormon and I don't struggle at all with my decisions. I'm still a kind loving moral woman and that's not a struggle.

Was looking at a friend's book by Gordon B. quotes. Was published when he was a profit. It's interesting that it says can't be copied and does not reflect teachings of the church. So I guess you can get a book for $14.95 of a prophet speaking as a man.

Ive been out for a year but yes Badass, I love my freedom, loving my nervermo boyfriend and just loving life. I had a nervous breakdown that led me to leave my TBM crazy husband and the church. When I told him I was no longer depressed he said I should have stayed, I would have got better. Umm no I would not have. Cog dis is hell. I can finally be myself and love myself without the guilt because

I got a call today from Rexburg ID for a work survey. At the end I asked if shes is LDS. "Yes" Have you read the essays? "Uhh I dont know, I think so" You should read them, very interesting. The Essays on LDS.org She sounded like a young girl. Maybe her self will crash. Most mormons dont even know about them. I didnt till I left and came here.

When I was TBM I often ponderized on why The Lord lead me to find his true church and no one else in my family had. I thought I must be smarter, more rightious in pre existance or something. TSCC plays on our ego like that. I cringe now about those thoughts. I was just more naive, small minded, needy

When I was married to an abusive TBM I thought about running away. I was TBM also. I saw a scenio of getting my records moved, old bishop contacted by new bishop. I was afraid old bishop would tell Ex where I was. Thought about just acting like a convert and getting rebaptized under an alias. I just left him and become inactive. I wonder if anyone else has been thru this?

TSCC prevents people from developing true friends because we reject nonmembers. A 70 year old guy I know, in the church his whole life. His wife has alhizemers. He is lonely but the only people that come over are assigned, Visiting and home teachers and mishes. So sad.

I knew a TBM woman that was ex Catholic. Was proud to tell people she hasnt had sex in years because its a sin if your not trying to have kids. An old Catholic holdover belief. Felt bad for her husband.

Muhammad went to a cave to pray and think on which religion was right. An angel appeared to him three times. Then he started his own religion. Sound familiar?

25. Prayer
Even as A TBM I never really believed in prayer. So, God will only help someone if you pray or someone prays for them? Don't he love all people the same? And why not help everyone that prays? I guess my critical thinking was kicking in even then.

So many mormons cant stand their spouse. So, forever? We will love each other then, they say, because we will be perfected. I never could buy that or find a TBM I could stay with even in this life.

Thanks for sharing. I understand your pain. Both of my parents were achocolics. Bad fights, child neglect. Dad died at 49 of cirrosis. Mom quit drinking and for next 30 years I had a sweet loving mom. I wrote my story and let a TBM read it. She said how could you say such nice things about her? I said because she changed and put love of Jesus in her life. She read that part put TBMs gonna hate an

Thanks all my friends here! I have a nevermo boyfriend that I live with. I feel no guilt so I think I was mentally out much longer than I realized. He is so much kinder, loving and authentic than my two ex TBM husbands were. I was so miserable with them both. The first was abusive, then found out was a child molester. Second was an asshole that liked porn more than a real live woman.
