Thank you for posting this and I suspect there are many more like you. I live in Utah and once considered joining the church. THANK GOD I DIDN'T!
That's why I hope these Mormon exposure thread s can continue.
At one time I was thinking on becoming a mormon, that was until I did some research on it. Coming to Free Republic saved me and my family from making a big mistake.

PRAISE GOD!! I used to bemoan my time in the LDS church, but now I can see that God has used my knowledge and experience of the LDS to reach and witness to others and I am humbly grateful for that. All Glory to Him!
I had a different experience. After finding out about Mormonism I decided I wanted to join. It was the best decision I ever made.
