That's me in the corner, that's me in the spotlight. . .
Lately I've been feeling like a bad Mormon. And, no, I am not referring to the fact that I sipped every alcoholic drink that passed in front of me on Friday night, I feel not even the slightest bit of guilt over that. I really enjoy the service part, believe it or not. I like visiting teaching, and I like doing my calling. It's just that pesky going to classes part. For two Sundays in a row now, I've sat through Sacrament meeting bored out of my mind, only to hear people comment on how awesome and spiritual those particular meetings were. I also don't care for Relief Society, and I skip Sunday School entirely. I want to read scriptures on my own, but I never do. And I never go to the temple. It's weird cause I have a testimony that the church is true, and I have no intention of leaving it at all, but I really don't feel like I'm getting all that much from being there. Most people at church would say that you only get out of it what you put into it, and that's probably true, but I'm lazy. Now, don't you people all start Mormon bashing here, it's not open forum on Mormon hating. I've just had this on my mind, and I keep this blog to get stuff off my mind, so there you go. Good day to you.

Maybe your spirit is like an unadorned iron rod, it doesn't need frippery cause it's already solid. Maybe you're a rock of solitary spiritualism that doesn't need the thinly veiled peer pressure of constant church going and activities to remain vigilant. Or, maybe you're just smarter than the people giving the lessons and it's dull. Your choice, or mix and match. :)
I'm pretty sure it's that last one. lol. I can't count the days when I was sitting there wishing the teacher had an IQ higher than a child's so I could get some decent info.
ok here's the drinking. man you mormons make all the other religions look lazy.
We sure do. We gots willpower out the wazoo. It goes to show, I must really think this religion is the true church of God, cause if I didn't, I'd be so outta there. In a second. Cause I'd much rather be having fun. And sex. And liquor. And no guilt when I do something wrong. And did I mention sex and liquor?
