Have you tried taking an extended vacation from religion? Try it for six months--no praying, no scripture reading, no obsessive worrying over whether God kills a kitten every time you masturbate, etc. Give it a try and see what happens.Mormon Suicide wrote:Any answers to the questions posed.

Surprise, surprise, there is no divine mandate for the Church to discuss and portray its history accurately.

There were and are Christian churches throughout the world ---- and ungodly organizations such as ISIS are doing their level best to eradicate all of them. Let's just say God has blessed the West in ways that few today seem to fathom ---- and people just throw the opportunities they have away.

How many Christian churches are there in North Korea? How many millions of North Koreans will go to hell because the tribal sky god of the ancient Hebrews forgot to put a few of his sacrificial blood shrines in North Korea?LittleNipper wrote:There were and are Christian churches throughout the world...
How many Iraqis and Syrians will go to hell because ISIS blew up all the sacrificial blood shrines and killed all the sky god cultists?littlenipper wrote:...and ungodly organizations such as ISIS are doing their level best to eradicate all of them.
If you really believed that, you'd be in North Korea spreading the cult of the sky god.littlenipper wrote:Let's just say God has blessed the West in ways that few today seem to fathom...
Or are you backing away from your earlier assertion that sky god cultists have greater human worth than non-sky god cultists?
Agreed. It's rather depressing when people devote their lives to the propagation of ancient superstition when they could instead study science, medicine, social work, or art.littlenipper wrote:...and people just throw the opportunities they have away.
Nipper, you had a golden opportunity to tell Mormon Suicide all about the sky god cult. Why did you let this golden opportunity slip through your fingers?littlenipper wrote::sad: Dear Mormon Suicide, I wish you might stay. God may ultimately have other plans for this thread that you began...

I'm planning on committing Mormon Spiritual Suicide in the Summer of 2015. This is a plea for help. Brief overview of my life. Open and honest.
I'm open to reading short material and listening to any material
MormonSuicide@gmail.com e-mail me to discuss privately
By what objective standard or measure does the LDS church use to determine if a scripture in the KJV is translated correctly or not?
What is Official Church doctrine? Only the standard works? or any publication that has the stamp of the church on the back?

What is the name of the God of Mormonism?

I feel ya. Kinda getting through that hump myself.
I know this might be insensitive, but I honestly think this would be a wonderful experiment, so bear with me here.
I recommend that for 6 months straight, you stop reading critical material about the Church and only read Daniel Peterson's blog, MADB, and the FairWiki. Return in 6 months and report. I'm willing to bet my toenail clippings and a chipped tooth I saved from when I was a kid that you'll be a whole new person, and more active in the Church than ever. Yes sirrreee, you'll be well on your way down that old familiar and reassuring road to salvation. That same, comforting road next to that iron rod; a road chalk full of polite chuckles at Uchtdorf airplane analogies and deep, teary eyed sympathy for another (imaginary or real? who knows!) human being who has died in an eloquent and variably intoned Monson talk.
I don't always troll, but when I do, I troll the trolls.

That's not going to work because he been in and already accepted the ideology's and thought processes of the new religion he's in.
So, this "Mormon Suicide" is just a gimmic to get followers on his new mission of being an "expert" against Mormonism. He already has his conclusions and new path and is simply "pretending" he wants to understand various things.
In other words, he commited "Mormon Suicide" a long time ago already. This is just a show.

Re: I'm Committing Mormon Suicide in 2015
Original Post has been updated with new videos / questions. Still awaiting at least an attempt to answer any of the questions using LDS sources.
