NOM

I love this thread and think it's a great idea to make it a "sticky thread". I was going to post some of my favorite books, but most of them have been named already....some excellent suggestions.

I'll go ahead and pin this thread.

Children began questioning and leaving the church (without my permission no less) and I was sure I could solve it and find the answers to their questions. One rabbit hole later I find myself confident it is all a facade. Wow, this is so familiar to me. I watched the PBS special "The Mormons" and he...

Hey, I was looking for the old forums where I posted of enduring my crisis of faith while being a missionary. This has always been a wonderful and caring community, so I hope to return some of the kindness I have received (: Welcome! Glad you found us. I too would love an update regarding how you'r...

Previously on the board I wrote extensively on the Mormon-Masonic connection. In addition, I promised at some time to share some of my research on the Masonic roots of the Book of Abraham. Sadly, other important tasks have largely superseded and I have never gotten a chance to post the information ...

I hope none of you will mind me adding a new thread to the New Order Mormon - Doctrinal Discussions group. I just received a message from one of the groups members alerting me to the recreation of the New Order Mormon site. George? Is it really you??? :D I saw your name as the newest registered mem...

Thanks for the warm welcomes. :) My husband is still a believer, but he rarely attends anymore. We had a few rough years (there were other issues already creating problems). He was sure that the devil made me do leave the church, thanks to bishop K. :roll: We are at a pretty good place now acceptin...

Finally found you all! I got a notification on Tapatalk of a chat going on. I scrolled up and saw I missed a ton of chatter, including the new address. I've missed NOM so much! I signed up a few days ago, waited for an activation email that never came, then found I was able to log in anyway. So hap...

All through this process, I discussed everything with my TBM DH. He was supportive of all of my questioning and searching until I found that I didn't believe. Then we could no longer talk reasonably about religion. There was never any threats of divorce over my leaving the church, but it definitely...

Thank you for writing that all out...I loved reading your story and getting to know you better. Glad you're here

Great idea

This would make a fascinating article for Dialog or the Mormon History Association (I'm looking at you, Allie!) or possibly a book: Restoration or Evolution? You know, one of the threads I'm still mourning the loss of from our dear old NOM forum is the thread on this topic. George Miller had posted...

It is true that his mom is now married to another woman. It's irrelevant to whether or not he would have been a good president, but true. Ok, I hadn't checked that part out. I agree with you that it's irrelevant. I immediately thought of the new policy when I heard these members discussing that, th...

This is evidenced by the fact that McMullen was in the lead until the white supremacist robocall accused him of being gay and same-sex marriage tolerant, at which point the votes immediately jumped over to Trump I heard a few whispers of this among some LDS friends. Yup. What I heard was from those...

Separation from gentiles, treasure seeking/"seeing" with magical objects, and polygamy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Israelites Gee, any surprise that Smith Sr and Cowdery Sr apparently were involved with this "sect" and later Joe Jr and Oliver Jr created a sect that would ultimately have thes...

I enjoyed your reading your entire intro, but what you wrote above made me laugh

Great to see you back, Zack!

1) No Foul or abusive language, name calling, bullying or personal attacks; Keep language PG and question/critique ideas not people. 2) No Over-the-top disrespect for the church and believing members; This is basically what separates us from the "angry anti-mormon" forums. 3) No openly mocking of th...

Thank you! I always enjoy your posts too

I'm not sure where this goes, but I decided it fits on this forum (considering the overall topic of it). This was on Reddit this morning & I am still laughing: https://www.reddit.com/r/exmormon/comments/5bs2yb/my_bishop_the_exorcist/ Oh Wow. I cannot even imagine.... I loved when the Bishop said th...
