Hi Bkuebird,

I have been lurking on these boards with my own questions and concerns for a month or so now and haven’t gotten around to writing my own introduction, but I had to respond to your post and welcome you here and let you know that you are not alone. My most cherished calling was when I was a Laurel advisor. Laurels are at an age that they are trying to figure out who they are and what they believe. Despite some Mormon culture to the contrary, we, as Mormons are not expected to never question. Here is a link to a CES fireside by President Uchtdorf that was comforting to me.

It alludes to there being information on the Internet that may be confusing and disconcerting. He lets us know that it is okay to question, ponder, study and seek out truth. I don’t know what my truth is yet, but I do feel that God is not angry at me or you or anyone for seeking out truth and understanding, indeed, it is our responsibility to do so.
