Hey guys what did I miss?

[_Mike Reed]

Pleased to see you back on the forum, LostinDC. Thanks for the update. Hopefully moving to a new ward will make your transition of faith easier. I rarely participate on the boards anymore, but if you ever need to talk, my email is mike_g_reed at yahoo dot com. And if you are ever in Northern California, look me up. I'd love to have lunch/dinner with you sometime.

After my fallout, sorting out my own "Mormon" identity has been an interesting process; a process that I still seem to be in. But as challenging as it may be at times, I am really enjoying the journey, and I am learning a lot about myself. Thankfully I have Sunstone, JWHA, and Restoration Studies conferences to help me feel at home, and remind me that "Mormonism" is a much larger umbrella than the self-anointed-guardians-of-LDS-"orthodoxy" may want us to believe.

.. I am a wolf in sheeps clothing.

Nah ... you're still just a pup.

Give it another year or so.

Have Runtu take you out on a hunt and show you the ropes.

Runtu is a master at it that is for sure.

I actually thought about being a wolf in sheeps clothing so I could help others out of church because I knew they hated going to church but they just keep going because they believe it is what it claims to be. I decided not to be a wolf in sheeps clothing because I could not handle sitting through church anymore listening to the BS.

I guess Runtu just has more charity then me and is much more knowledgeable about church history.

So true.

But Runtu represents the very unusual case of a vegetarian wolf.

He's not into the ambushing, rending of flesh, etc., but he does get off on watching others with blood and gore and guts and veins in their teeth.
