    Excuse me for saying so, but it sounds to me like you are bipolar. My second wife was bipolar so I know a bit about the disease. It is a chemical imbalance in the brain caused by emotions. On the one hand, the mania is caused by lust or greed which manifest sexually or by stealing, or some other behavior outside the accepted standards and then when the mania ends, fear sets in caused by guilt and then the crash. Since you mentioned the LGBT thing, I suspect your mania is something sexual. Setting that aside, Let me tell a little about myself. I am 75 years old and I m old enough to remember when America was great and the LDS church was a true church. Sad to say, the same group of people who tried to completely take over our government and replace the constitution, have taken over the LDS church. I grew up with Jesus. I was in the church bodily but my spirit was with Jesus. I kept the rules, I did not exactly agree with everything going on in the church. Following Jesus, He forgave me of my sins and after many trials, he sanctified me. After my sanctification, I notice things I had not noticed before about the leaders of the church, and when I confronted them about certain things, they excommunicated me. It wasn't for year later that I found out the church hade been taken over by a group of Catholic priests called the Jesuits. They have implemented what is called a theocratic dictatorship in the church, just like in the Catholic church. They make the rules and all you have to do for salvation is to keep their rules and give all your money to them. Just like the Catholic church is rich and powerful, and now that the Mormon church is a tributary of the Catholic church, the leadership of the church are also rich and powerful theocratic dictators. Salvations does not come by keeping their rules. It comes from having relationship with Jesus. By the way, theocratic dictatorship is the plan that Lucifer proposed before the war in heaven, and now that the devil's agent control the church, I do not blame you for how you live you life. God bless you sister to find Jesus. He is the way, the truth and the life. He lives. I have see his face, heard his voice and felt his touch. He saved me from my sins and he sanctified me. He loves you. You are special to the Lord. The devil knows how special you are to him and the devil wants you dead. Let me encourage you to get tok now Jesus. Be like Mary in the Bible who studied at the feet of Jesus, and forget about following the dictators of the church.

    Your whole philosophy is summed up in postmodernism. I find that most LDS people (active and former) subscribe to this view of reality. Before you follow any religion it would be wise to investigate where that faith came from… and what its history includes. Western Civilization has been largely shaped by Christianity. I hope you can find Truth one day. 😊😊😊

    • @SamaraBuildsABetterLife

    When my dad was killed in Viet Nam, they sent a very young soldier to the high school where my mom was teaching to tell her. She met the young soldier at the door of her class and the bell rang.
