ParticipantThanks. What you said about the sacrament makes a lot of sense. mormonmom
ParticipantThanks… mormonmom
ParticipantI agree with what Ray said… I hate thinking about what other people think of me because I am afraid it’s not good.

ParticipantI have been dying to know for a while.. what does TBM stand for? Does it have more than one meaning. I think it meant The Book of Mormon once and then I thought maybe it was To Be Mormon.. well there are lots of things I can guess but I don’t know.

ParticipantThat is a great post. It really has me thinking about a lot of things. mormonmom
ParticipantHello, Wow a bishop at 26 that is really crazy! I can’t imagine a bishop that young.
I have never been to Utah but that doesn’t sound good what you described. I did come across a blog post not too long ago somehow on a google search and there was a picture and the person was talking about a store that was called sexy modest or something like that and then wrote only in Utah.
A few things you said have got my mind running wild. I am very curious but anyway I guess I might have an idea.
Thanks.

ParticipantHello, It must be so hard not being able to even talk to your wife about the church. I don’t know for sure but it sounds like she doesn’t understand your decisions or how you feel. It sounds very hard. Even the elephant in the room sounds uncomfortable.
(a lost friend, a wounded marriage, and children that don’t understand)
I sometimes wonder if my husband would even stay married to me if say I joined and became a member of the catholic faith. I would like to believe family should love you or your spouse no matter what.

ParticipantThat is great. I hope you are able to do this. It’s not easy for everyone. mormonmom
ParticipantWow thanks for all your replies. I really like what Tom said
“Leaving won’t make any difference. The same old problematic teachings will continue whether I am there to be rubbed wrong by them or whether I am far away. Leaving is nothing more than a coping mechanism for myself. If I have to leave to feel lighthearted and feel peace, I probably should leave. But as far as I can handle being there in all my heretical glory, happily and peacefully, I probably should cope while staying. That’s where quiet books, nursery service, picking up trash, cleaning the bathrooms, and sitting in on primary classes (maybe not always good coping) come in handy.
I think I am going to write that down in a book and take it with me to church and read it. It is very true!

ParticipantHello, I really like when you said that
“The most important thing is my wife and kids, and Im willing to go to church for them even if it is not true.”
I really think that is admirable. My husband has always wanted me to go to church for him and that is really nice you will go to church for them.
