I'm a nevermo who has met some crucial TBM Mormons and I think, "I can see this one being TBM til their last breath"
Then there are some close friends I have who are Mormons, but are kinda in the middle. Like, sure they wear their garments every day, went on a mission, don't drink coffee/tea, go to church every Sunday,etc. But also live in a much less-Mormon area/state and hate Utah, prefer to date non-mormons than other mormons, like to drink coke/other caffeine drinks, don't seem arrogant or judgmental at all, have admitted they have no friends in the church and hate everyone at church.
And to those, they are a little harder to figure out. Can we assume maybe they're in it, but don't believe? That maybe someday they will leave the church? Or perhaps they will always be LDS and continue to deny the things their religion deprives them of but obviously crave?
I know you can never be certain of what is going on in someone's head, but what have your experiences been with friends/relatives who are like this??
