Mormons want the easy and less-time consuming way because they have their time and thoughts so tied up in the MormonInc. busy, busy world. Taking time to read books, even those on their okayed list, is not chosen by many active mormons. So when one of their beloved general authorities comes up with advice easily put to memory they grab onto it like candy, And, their thinking has been done for

I believe the MormonInc.'s days started on the downslide the day the internet was put into more and more hands. Sure, it will take countries and cultures who do not have the resources to finally get their hands on the internet like the U S of A, England, and a lot of European Countries, but I believe the tide will swing in that direction more and more. Information will bring the knowledge of w

Along with PapaKen's comments that I agree with 5,00%, is my own outrage that the WILLFUL LIES continue to roll out of the mouths of the 12 + 3 con-men who have chosen to continue the disgusting ruse started by Sleezy Ole Joe so that they can sit on their own velvet-lined pedestals. From their perches they can look down on the masses, call the shots, and eat, drink and live on easy-street. They

Sister missionaries left their mormon BUSINESS card on my doorstep when I was out about two months ago. There was a phone number where they could be reached. Very curious as to how they got my address as I have officially resigned.

I think I would have ran away from home if I had been required to sit through GC's. I remember attending a stake conf with a friend who had to attend. After approx. 30 minutes, I told her I would meet her later that day providing her parents let her out of the house on sunday.

In my opinion the Mormoney Church realized they had hit on a winning strategy when they came up with the slogan, "Every member a missionary." The word "every" makes you feel included and special, that you are important enough to be "an example", a "show-case for the Church," and that you must live your life accordingly. Notice the cult does not have a

I fell for lots of other mormoney lines, but I never uttered that one and cringed when others did. To me, it felt like a put-down from the uppity-ups to the downity-downs (me), and I just wanted to kick the person where it hurts when they said it.

When I had stopped attending church and some of my kids (darn) were still attending, they were sometimes drilled concerning their evil, inactive parents. I also had a friend tell me that somehow the church knew that my sister-in-law had left the Mormon Inc. and joined a different church (one of my children most likely gave out that info). However, when I was told later by this same friend that

Of course, in order to hire more employees for the Member Records Dept., the cult would have to admit they have an increase of resignations. Naw, they won't do that.

For me, it was the members and the church going behind my late husband and my back supposedly to rescue our teenager who was in trouble. So, with the bishop's blessing, we were not notified of the crisis and MormonInc.'s actions, all because we were inactive- temple-married-parents who in their eyes should not be allowed to exist (in my humble opinion) and certainly not be allowed to raise our O

ELDER ABUSE big time!!! MormonInc. is so disgusting and has no limits on how low they stoop. Makes me think of another way they bring in the money big time with their "charity" scam of Deseret Industries. People donate everything and then MormonInc. sells the items for more money than other similar establishments.

I so agree, and Say, Jeffrey Holland, remember that it is never too late to take the road that was never taken. You have shown much ability in the arena of public speaking---if only you would choose to speak, as has been suggested, the T R U T H, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God. So hope that you will give this a try.

Rebecca Musser is an amazing woman who defied the FLDS Church for herself, sister, and many others. She is bright and courageous and paints a vivid picture with her words describing what it was like to fight for her freedom from this cult.
