# Why I left More stories of 'Why I left' the Mormon church
After many years of on again off again going to church I checked out. Due to the indoctrination I always thought that the church could be true. The Missionaries asked me a couple years, what is different now that I don't go to church anymore? I told them life is just so much easier now. Recently I started my look into the Truth claims and history of the church. The first time I watched the Temple ceremony on YouTube I was actually afraid something bad was going to happen. Once I got over that, I was able to start deconstructing for real! I can see now that none if it is true. It was all made up. All the nonsense I was taught as a kid is literally just nonsense. The prophets don't walk around the temple talking to Jesus. I wasn't some special kid in heaven. God isn't coming back anytime soon. Joseph never translated anything! The worst part is that people in my family have wasted their whole lives on the church. It is truly sad that my mother has never enjoyed life.
