How do you currently feel about the church?
This is always a tricky one for ex-mormons. It took a long time and a lot of work on my end to heal and move past the anger. Now, I am fine coexisting with members of the church. I am always very honest with them, kind and respectful of how they choose to live. I think the people are usually very nice and want to do good for the world, but the doctrine and leadership of the church is where the harm lies.

I don't hate the church and I have nothing against the members. I'm still friends with all the same people in the church that I was friends with before I left. But I do have a natural mistrust toward the church now because I know it was a huge source of lies that controlled me for 32 years of my life.
I hate it, and I enjoy watching it bring itself down with its own hubris. It’s a church of lies, and it needs to go away. If the church is going to survive this hemorrhage of members, they will have to drastically downsize from a religious organization to a society, like the Masons or Shriners.
