Becky! Hello friend. We definitely have too much past. You should know, I'm a very nice person who never hates. I believe that we all must follow our own journeys, and I would never dream of depriving someone else the same privilege I have had of following mine. I wouldn't do that by conditioning our friendship, or our relationship on it either.
As for singing, thanks for the

So... does it mean that you just don't like the church or does this include the members of this faith? After all, the members of the LDS faith do believe it's

I'm 64 now. I was raised in the Church, did my Mission, graduated from BYU, was married in the Temple and did all this simply because it was expected of me. I knew during my Mission that there was no such thing as a True Church. Obviously for social reasons I remained an active Mormon. But finally it all became too tedious. I've been "hard core inactive" since about 1977.

I'm sorry to hear you were basically forced into resigning, especially if it's not what you would have chosen to do anyway. I don't see anything in your writing that's unreasonable, but apparently voices of reason constitute apostasy these days.

Congrats, Brent. I haven't followed your blog for a few months, but this should be a happy time for you. You are FREE, man. FREE to discover whatever you want, to believe whatever you want. Free to think more, without guilt. Live it up! Play some music, read the ExMO blogs, explore, travel, shake off the old nonsense. Get on with your new life...

Darned integrity. :D

This blog post demonstrates what I have seen again and again, that for some people, a personal sense of integrity can lead to rejection of long held beliefs. Some people react to ideas that are different than theirs as though they have been personally attacked. I hope you do not loose many friends. Good luck. I look forward to visiting with you.

You are welcome Tom. Thanks for the book: Under the Banner of Heaven. I love it.

I'm half way through. Quite Thrilling!

It is a sad day when you feel you need to resign because you have been threatened by a church leader. I do understand how difficult this journey has been for you and your family. Thank you for having the courage and integrity to share your experiences with us. Again, thank you Brent, you are a wonderful example and a good friend.
