No, but I agree with not having sexual material in grade school. To censor the books that teenagers read is a crime. They can handle it.

The ownership class of the church buys a chunk of agricultural land. Then they give orders for the elite brethren to build a temple there. None of their money is used for the construction, but they give it a tiny piece of the land. Next they bribe local governments into changing the zoning law from agricultural to residential.

I raised a son, and he wasn't him for years. Like all of us, he's the product of genetics and environment. He didn't exist as a complete personality at first. The pre-life notion violates my understanding of life. The believers so desperately don't want to die that they deny death. The only thing that we're guaranteed, and they refuse to accept it.

I've been debating online with some Mormons lately. It's fun to poke at them. The thing they're telling me the most is that the church is quick to act on reports of abuse. But I've been Mormon, and I know their secrets. I tell them too. It occurred to me that the Mormon believer resembles the spouse of a cheater. Always the last to know.

34 years ago, my wife and I went on our honeymoon to Disneyland. We went to the airport dressed in sandals, shorts, and shirts. We each carried two carry-on bags and no other luggage. Then we walked directly to our gate and checked in.We breezed our way through the experience. When we arrived in LA, we just walked away.I wouldn't fly today for any reason.

My late Mormon father used his money to control his offspring. The stick was the church, and financial help was the carrot. I planted my own carrots.

I left at age twelve. It was the miserable members who drove me out. "This can't be good," I thought. "They let assholes like my father in." And his Mormon friends were like half-men, no personality.

I'm not recommending you do this, but I sent my father a last goodbye letter 12 years before his death. He kept trying to reach me, and I ripped up his letters and ignored his messages. The man was so obsessed by Mormonism that he lost children over it. I found my peace in his absence. My mother publicly disowned my brother and me. We were left nothing. But Mormonism is over in our bloodlines
