Why does church feel like this to me...

This is for encouragement, ideas, and support for people going through a faith transition no matter where you hope to end up. This is also the place to laugh, cry, and love together.

I feel like going to one of these would be eerily like going to church or general conference. :lol:

That's a great analogy!

It's amazing how easily tribalism will overcome altruism and logic.

Well, it's round along the outside edge of the Antarctic ice wall. It's a flat disk otherwise.

Parody aside, If you encounter a true believer in the flat earth, they are not nearly as fun to engage as an LDS apologist. It's not a slam dunk in either case, but I always detect a hint of desperation whenever I speak with my LDS apologist friends.

Always been the good kid, but I wanted to know more, and to find and test truth.
