Freetounged Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 A brief into to my life.I was raised mormon. Served a mission. Got married in the "faith." We both had questions about the mormon faith. We left due to lack of answers and being treated poorly for asking questions. We are now somewhat "political." Became "political" when finding out we didn't have a choice in some things dealing the law/government. Which made no sense to us since that implied we are owned. After my mormon mission I started listening to political talk shows. I listened to the following in order: Dough Wright, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Alex Jones, Bill Cooper, Micheal Perenti, Marc Stevens and currently to Stefan Molyneux. I would abandon the previous for the following person. My reasoning for jumping from one to the other is they didn't offer a solution or answers to my questions.I am here after a long hiatus from attempts with other libertarian websites that attacked/insulted me for asking questions that were seditious.
Kornflake Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 Welcome to the forums! I too grew up Mormon but left before my mission. It's funny how we each take a different path to get here. You are right that asking difficult questions can make things very uncomfortable in the church.
karin Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Hi! I'm an ex-mormon too! Did the temple marriage thing and after 30-some years as a mormon (parents converted) discovered the falsity of the book of mormon and that was the end. I'd been taught the church was true, and when i found out it wasn't quit.
