prayer
Prayer in Mormonism is taught as direct communication with God, but many members struggle when prayers seem unanswered or when they don't receive expected spiritual confirmations. The church teaches specific prayer formulas and that answers come through feelings, which critics argue is indistinguishable from normal emotions. When members' sincere prayers lead them away from the church, leaders dismiss their experiences as deception.
