I've done it! I'm free.

I will go into 'inactive" status first, and then pull the records out after that.

I'm done researching the history. My mind is made up! I want to stop this endless rationalizing and start accepting the facts that the LDS church is an absolute fraud.

It's really not the people that are at fault. They are good people of the community. They don't realise that they have been bamboozled!

The top few executives of this cult are the ones to blame, for hiding and covering up the discrepancies. This is indeed a very sophisticated CULT.

Here are my main reasons:
- Temple covenants are actually Masonic covenants. I didn't sign up for this! Mormon logic: If it looks, smells and sounds like a dog, it is a cat! Pray until you receive this answer.
- Joe Smith's life is not becoming of a prophet. I can accept imperfections as a human being, but doctrinal-wise = he didn't live up to his "calling". Same goes for all other prophets and apostles - Deny Deny Deny?

I think that is good enough. Don't get me started on Brigham Young.

My accomplishments in the MORG:
- Mission
- BYU
- HP Group leader

Goodbye to my donations too. I'm ecstatic about my 10% raise now! The windows of heavens have finally opened.

I can't blame myself as I was deceived. My "testimony" was based on what I was taught. If I reevaluate it today, I know this church is NOT true.

Interesting event yesterday: I had an inspiring music in my head. I "felt the spirit"...aka the warm, fuzzy feeling. To test this, I quickly put a thought of a demonic face and whispered "Oh Devil" a few times. Guess what! The good feeling did NOT go away. Yet the mormon Holy Ghost flees the room when somebody farts.
It's all subjective folks!
I still want to believe in God, Jesus and the real Holy Ghost. This will be the "faith" aspect of my life, to anchor my morals to. But I now have a theory that inspirations from God more likely comes to the MIND, rather than just the heart. Think about how many diseases that science has cured compared to the witch doctors!

I told my wife that if I have to come back to the church, I MUST accept other wives in heaven, and I must also honor the freemasonry religion. That's the only way I can reconcile.

So, please welcome me to the Former Mormon fold! I will write up my exit story soon.

Good decision, one based on sound research and logic.

Welcome!

Congratulations.

When I finally made up my mind to walk away and got released from all callings, I couldn't wipe the grin off my face for a couple of weeks.

Welcome to freedom. If you are like me, your life will just get better and better from here.

Good on ya!

I was a convert for only 1 1/2 years. I read about the garments, but I knew I would NEVER wear them. I tried not to think much about that little tradition, it was too ludicrous.

I'm not sure about any relegion alternative but it seems to make sense this statement.

christians catch the fish first and christ cleans them.
Mormons clean the fish first and the devil catches them.

The horse before the cart, only leads to arrogance, false humility, judging self-rightousness that exists among this sophisticted glorified money hungury tight ass adopted jewish gentile cult..

larry.

"Yet the mormon Holy Ghost flees the room when somebody farts."

(Larry-the-Cable-Guy voice...)- I don't care who you are...that's funny right thar....



LOL

+1

That made me LOL real-time.

Welcome to the freedom of being a former-Mormon, mostcorrectedbook. Here's hoping your journey is smooth, but TSCC is a big, fat lie, even in the not-so-smooth moments. We are here to celebrate your happy moments with you and be a sounding board if/when challenging moments arise. Looking forward to reading your exit story and congratulations!

p.s. Love your clever board name.

hehe. I got that farting story from here:

http://exmormon.org/phorum/read.php?2,522596

That story is hilarious! I'll never think of farting and the HG the same.

From that link...

"Many times I have heard leaders say that the spirit has fled because of this outburst or that disordered lesson, or cluttered homes of faithful and spiritual members."

Holy shit!!!....REALLY???????


God will "leave" a devout member for what was mentioned above...and they actually TEACH this??????



How the fvck does anyone STAY mormon?????

But, the spirit doesn't flee when Mittens takes his boat out on the water on the Sabbath and laughs loudly...

If this spirit thing could just be consistent for one minute...

Woot! Good for you for figuring it out. You will be amazed of the next bit as the evidence gets more and more and more obvious and clear.

You are right. Every piece of evidence and fact is now making complete sense.
This serves an important lesson for all. Remember not to be gullible to love-bombs and faith-promoting stories.
Con-men don't look like "dodos"! They are charmers and will carefully hide the truths.
Interestingly, the word "occult" derives from "hidden".

Yay! Welcome to a big wide world of real underwear! ;-)

Congratulations, mostcorrectedbook!

Excellent moniker, btw.

Thanks! I especially LOVE buying underwear for my wife now. She looks so awesome in it.
We got married in the temple...chaste, virgin and all white. Now she looks more attractive then ever. Bikini and tanktops - how marvelous and wonderful! I would have never known before!

Sorry for the rant. My freedom is such a positive buzz now.

Welcome!

I ditched mine a couple years ago. So liberating!

Man it feels good to be a gangsta....j/k Congrats!

YEAH!! Good for you mostcorrectedbook! Not only are you free to live your life, but you will find that you now finally feel like an adult. Congratulations!!

That Was funny mostcorrectedbook!

I think that every Exmo guy should use that same logic on his TBM wife like where you said: "I told my wife that if I have to come back to the church, I MUST accept other wives in heaven, and I must also honor the freemasonry religion. That's the only way I can reconcile." ...classic :)

Thanks everyone for your support!

BTW, my wife is leaving too. She is a wonderful partner who will support me all the way. She just needs some time to peel off all the deep layers as she is from a multi-generational TBM family.

She has even broke the news to my oldest daughter that daddy has uncovered some bad things about the church. My daughter vowed that she will follow me. I am so glad about this because I don't want her to continue the YW indoctrination. Hopefully my other younger kids will forget their Primary indoctrination sessions.

I told them that they can TRUST me for now. I will lead this exodus, and will truly stand blameless before God for my actions.

I feel more "presiding patriarch" than ever!

Congratulations!

Enjoy everything this wonderful world has to offer and try not to let the cult and its members stress you out.

PaleAle

I was on a business trip in May.

After work, all I did was research FREEMASONRY. I was addicted to it. I was so hurt and shocked at the similarities, I took off my garments and didn't put them back on for 3 days.

This is awesome news! Congratulations for both you and your wife, and the generations that you are liberating by leaving TSCC!

Now you have a "real" testimony and know what is a lie. Congratulations. It is a wonderful feeling. I tell by your euphoric feeling in your post. I'm so happy for you!!!

I'm inspired! I was so down on myself about going to church on Sunday when I promised myself I wouldn't. In my heart I'm out. . . I just need to BE out. No more callings. No church this Sunday. Than inactive. I just don't want to lose my husband.

Congrats and those are two good reasons to say ENOUGH.You can keep the real Jesus of Christianity in your mind or heart or both. You can find a place to practice your spirituality in your own time. Once you know the LDS faith is a fraud you probably need some space from all religion for just a bit. Sorting things out slowly is the best way to go once all the Mormon crap is gone. I wish you well and enjoy your raise.

Congrats!
You're gonna love not having to wear those over-priced / under-comfortable things any more!!!

I love happy stories like this, I actually "felt the spirit" when I read your story. Just goes to show...
It's nice that your wife is leaving with you, I wish you all the best in your new life together. :)

If only I were as lucky as you.

Thanks everyone. I hope we can be friends and support each other.

Since this board doesn't have any personal messaging, I was wondering if I could collect a list of all of you as my dear friends.
I want to do it the old fashioned way - email! FB is stalked by the FBI and the MORG CIA (my conspiracy theory).

You can click on my "mostcorectedbook" nickname and get my email address.

Please email me at johnrmask-mostcorrectedbook AT yahoo DOT com

Congratulations my friend. Wishing you the best
