What do you hate most about the LDS religion?

That it's not true.

That they won't let all family and loved ones attend your temple wedding.

I'm picking more than one. It's my thread, so it's okay.

GARMENTS

(((HUGS)))

By the unwarranted flattery heaped upon all member and even children younger than 8 that they are already righteous, chosen, choice, children of God, who only need to enhance that righteousness to move forward and follow the path set before them. It not only hinders true spiritual progress it stops it dead in its tracks. God CANNOT open to and receive anyone who stands at the door and knocks when they have given to themselves or received it from the preaching of others that BEFORE they ever came unto Christ, however earnestly, they assumed some degree of righteous worthiness. This is hypocrisy and the same hypocrisy that crucified Jesus Christ. Never shall he open to hypocrisy.

Those who are more determined beat themselves to spiritual death trying to advance against a sealed door. I see the carnage of it everywhere. Horrific abomination unmatched in all time that has been before. How I hate their blind, ignorant, inexperienced, and incompetent arrogance.

The Hebrews knew better even in the old testament when the High Priest Eli implored his sons to no more be the children of Belial and come to know the Lord. They refused. Somehow the wisdom of the Hebrews knew better than to tell their children that they are already good before the come to know God. (Of course i do not mean just learning about God but getting the mighty change of heart from God that the Ancient Hebrews called having circumcised the foreskin of their hearts that God might put his love upon them. Making them a new man as was King Saul. Same gospel as all the Book of Mormon teaches.

Have I made my point? Do you see it? Am I right?

I am tired and busy and distracted when ever I'm "here" and reading your posts. I need what you say spelled out with out emotion, in short sentences and paragraphs (like bullet points) I sense what you say, it brushes me and flits away along with a feeling that I understanding and am in agreement, but I'm not sure. Have I made sense?

I never cared for the invasiveness of the church regarding matters that I felt were deeply personal. It really just rubbed me the wrong way to have to sit in an interview with a priesthood leader and tell him about how often I prayed, how often I read my scriptures, and even whether I was dating anyone. I kind of felt like that stuff was between me and deity, and not the 22-year-old Elder's Quorum Second Counselor du jour.
