Is it only me or other people out here who suffered from nightmares after the sessions in the temple? I have had such heavy feeling after I did endownment and insted of feeling "blessed" as I guess I should have felt as a former mormon...I felt cursed and have had alot of nightmares during many years. Anyone else how has experienced this?

I need advice how to tell a mormon (close to me) about the errors of mormonism. I know alot about the religion since I have been member for over 2 decades, before I finally gave up the faith. This other person seems to have spiritual blindfold around the mind and seems impossible to talk about any "negative" issue about church and it´s history. I really need some advice in this

The "nice" parts from this book seems to be ok for church, but the "not-so-nice-parts" (and there is some of those...) seems to be a big problem for leaders in church...and I have been told many times when I was an active mormon that things that I questioned from Journal of discoures are antimormonism. How could it be, if it´s written in churchs own books? And Brigham Youn

knotheadusc: It is a good and very well written book. And it made me wonder if the highest leaders knows all this crap in lds history or just have choose to close their eyes to the dark past of mormonism and continue to live in the illusion?

Mindcontrol deluxe when someone tells you if you should have a beard or not in church. What has that to do with your relation with God? Do LDS leaders think that God will look at the members beard or shaved faces when He returns? This is so crazy that I don´t know what to say...

Brother of Jerry.I think the book is really scary in that way that Hans Mattson really wanted to help those members who were leaving church and understand questions that they had and that they never got answered.

I got a really bad depression after my endownment for some days and it got even worse later, cause I couldn´t talk with someone about it outside it. Some members said that It was my own fault, that I wasn´t ready to be there and so on. But I just knew in my heart after a short while during the session that the temple was not a place of God. And I just wanted to run out from there, but was paral
