Lindsay Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

Mormon church leaders council that research is not the answer, but that stance only works for so long. Once the floodgates of true information open, there’s no turning back. Lindsay found that once she had the information, the only conclusion that makes any sense. She has this poignant epiphany that the church simply isn’t true. …

Michael Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

The critical thinking skills that flourish in logic and science must be ignored in Mormonism. Once Michael applied the same critical thinking, his belief in the church couldn’t hold water. “I’ve always been a fan of logic, science, and critical thinking. I just finally got around to applying logic and reason to matters of faith …

Zac Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

In his quest to find himself, Zac realized he was done living for everyone else’s comfort. He really began to find himself and face his own sexuality.

Gretchen Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

Gretchen spells out the insanity in what Joseph Smith did and got away with for a number of years. It does not compute that a prophet of God would do this, or that a good God would command a prophet to do this. Also, that we can’t talk about these problems or think critically about …

Plonx Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

The CES Letter reaches far and wide and everywhere it unwinds the lies the church tells. Plonx from the Philippines deconstructed his faith and found more happiness after leaving the mormon church. “I started searching about the mormon church. I learned about the CES Letter, the salamander letter, the case of Mark Hoffman, the Book …

Denise Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

The CES Letter exposes many of the church’s coverups and helps readers see through the correlated bologna. Denise accidentally found the CES letter but didn’t accidentally leave the church. “I stumbled on the Post Mormon facebook pages, learned about the CES letter, and all of the lies of the church. I resigned my membership in …

Mark Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

The Gospel Topic Essays are damaging to testimonies in that they skirt around issues that we’ve always been taught to ignore. To be authentic the only route was for Mark to leave the church. “I discovered the Gospel Topic Essays on the church website. They aren’t easy to find, and I found the content to …

Michele Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

Learning and better understanding how mormon polygamy started was the end for Michele in the church. Polygamy could not come from a loving God. “This all started with a search on polygamy. After becoming increasingly uncomfortable with the sorry state of families I see in polygamy in my workplace, I had to know about the …

Laura Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

Laura enjoys finding and living the truth and moves forward in peace. This is why she left. We can’t both live truth and be mormon. It doesn’t work. “I enjoy singing, being outside, my beautiful husband and family, finding and living truth, and moving forward in peace. I was a mormon. I am finally free.” …

Francis Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

The mormon church has hidden the truth and misrepresented church leaders like Joseph Smith while also pressuring members to promise allegiances to the church in the temple. Francis saw leaving the church as a repentant course correction towards a more authentic life! “Throughout the half century of my church membership, officers of the Corporation of …

Barton Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

Barton found the discrepancies in the church’s version of things and in reality after reading the CES letter and all things church history. The church is more interested in protecting its own interests than in teaching truth or being truthful. “I stumbled upon the CES letter and “letter for my wife” by accident. Once I …

Rebecca Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

The church was more a corporate business than a church for Rebecca. The church teachings did not reflect God or Love, rather they were shallow and manipulative. “I have come to realize so much about the construct of the Church and how it was designed for misery and compliance- it was designed as a business, …

Continue reading “Rebecca Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight”

Debbie Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

Debbie could no longer teach her primary children as well as her own children the things that she herself did not believe. She refused to be a part of the mormon brain-washing culture. “I found myself correcting my child’s church lessons to what I wanted her to learn. I.e. you are not chewed gum or …

Alan Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

Alan found it impossible to reconcile the truth and science with the church and all the anti-truth he found there. “I was born and raised in the church. I was taught from a young age to value truth over all other considerations. Truth was more important than feelings, authority, or friends. As I grew up …

Austin Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

As a member of the church and also a gay person, the November policy of exclusion in 2015 was the last straw for Austin. “I had my name removed from the records in 2015 when the Policy of Exclusion was leaked. That was the straw that broke the camel’s back. By that point, I had …

Jim Was a Mormon, an Exmormon Profile Spotlight

Jim methodically studies each truth claim of the church and found them all lacking. Each pillar truth claim the church makes is demonstrably false. The church keeps proclaiming these “truths”, in effect pulling the wool over everyone’s eyes. He was then able to write a whole series of books detailing many of his findings! “Day …
