I'm a little confused by your comment, "I've learned many things from SparkyGuru, but I haven't dug into everything enough for myself to really know to decide if she's worth my time." Could you clarify what you mean by this? Do mean you that you are trying to decide if she is worth you time by what you learn about Mormonism? Or that you are trying to do decide if Mormonism is true or worth joining for someone else?
Regardless, I HIGHLY recommend the following online sources to learn the real, TRUE, dirt on Mormonism.
http://home.teleport.com/~packham/tract.htmhttp://mormonthink.com/personalstories/A_Letter_to_a_CES_Director.pdfhttp://utlm.org/onlinebooks/changecontents.htmThe first link is a great overview for those who are not LDS. The second link is a great summary for all the reasons the church is not what it claims. It was written by a member of the LDS church who eventually lost his belief and wrote a letter explaining the main problems he came across in his research.
The last link is a link to a book that goes into more depth and detail of the problems in Mormon history/doctrine.
See if you can get your girlfriend to read the above. I would make an ultimatum with her. If she is not willing to research the issues which you have issues with, then she is not worthy of your time as a girlfriend and does not really care about your concerns. She doesn't have to change your views but she should at least be willing to study the issues with you.
BTW, if she doesn't de-convert, then its gonna suck being married to a Mormon girl. Others can attest to this.
