At least leaving their church isn’t a violent beheading punishment experience, like islam. Does LDS punish them in any way? Other than keeping them on the tithe mailing list? Just asking... I’m a “recovering Methodist”. Heh.

Sigh...

Yet another person who plays the "...at least Mormonism is not ISLAM..." card.

My!

How the times have changed!


I do not feel threatened by it because I don’t think that they will be attempting to convert by the sword.
 

The gruesome be headings of some 40 Ute corpses in 1850, heads stacked in boxes,
and hung by their long hair from the eves of buildings at Fort Utah,
 has long been ignored, “You didn’t see the Indians beheading the Mormons.”
 
-- Historian Robert Carter

In LDS past history they had a practice called "blood atonement". Look it up.
