My brother a recent former bishop sent me a conference talk which said "I encourage you to recall, especially in times of crisis, when you felt the Spirit and your testimony was strong; remember the spiritual foundations you have built." In response I sent him my reasons for leaving the church which outlined the facts that made it impossible for me to ever believe in it again. His response was to shame me that my "pure heritage is being a Mormon boy"..."Family is everything." There was no concern or discussion about the troubling church facts. Somehow facts did not matter.
It caused me too ask myself what is more important facts or family. Or, should there be a choice?
