doubt
In Mormon culture, doubt is often treated as a moral failing rather than a natural part of inquiry. Members who express doubts are told to "doubt your doubts" or that they must have sinned. This creates an environment where honest questioning is suppressed and members feel shame for having legitimate concerns. Many who leave the church describe being unable to voice their doubts for years, fearing judgment from family and community.
