After I left the Cult, I noticed the local Mormons across the street one day taking out a tree. I went over and helped, and told the Bishop that just because I had resigned did not mean they could not contact me to help my neighbors. He just smiled at me wryly.

They are in the know, not I. And because I'm not part of their Cult anymore, I am not privy to neighbors in need, particularly elderly ones and therefore, I am left out. Our neighborhood does not have a watch or gathering that is non religious to set this kind of thing up.

Course everywhere else that Mormons jump in to try and show how wonderful they are - they put on loud t-shirts that show the name of their Cult. And they get upset when members who are there to help refuse to wear them.

Mormons don't work well outside their own troop. They recruit only their own kind. They don't work well with other religions, and rarely call upon anyone who isn't part of their Cult. They prefer to be in the spotlight so that they can show the world that the Cult of Joseph Smith really isn't all that bad - and oh yeah, we're Christians, see?


*sigh* Some people don't need "grist" from others--they've got a 2 years supply! :lol:

WjExMo, I'm not sure what you want from your LDS neighbors? From your post, it's obvious how you feel about LDS; you think they don't pick up the negative vibes? They don't ask you to help since it's clear you are glad to be rid of them and you see them as selfish and self-serving--why would they want to inflict you with their odious presence?
