"I belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints!"

I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of latter-Day Saints AKA LDS, or The Mormons. As a latter day saint, I believe in God the eternal father and in His Son Jesus Christ and in the Holy Ghost.  I know that Jesus died and suffered for my sins and pains and not only for me but for everyone, and I am eternally grateful. I love The Lord; he is my constant guide through hard and good times. I will defend my religion and all my church leaders with my life. I love the gospel so much, and it truly makes me happy. Some people think that because I have so many rules I have no freedom but this is not true. I am actually freer because I have more options. My father is the bishop (pastor) of my ward (congregation). All of the leaders in my church do not get paid it is a service. All of the church tithes go to utilities/ building more temples and buildings. Along with the regular Sunday and Wednesday night meetings I also attend a early morning seminary (Bible study) this year we have been studying The Book of Mormon. And no it is not an addition to the Bible it’s another testament of Christ. As a Mormon we believe that the Lord will never leave any of his children without knowledge of him. This is why the book of moron was written. It’s just the record of the people in the Americas about the same time as The New Testament was written in Jerusalem area. OH and no I do not have more than one mom. In the past Mormons used polygamy to increase there numbers because so many of them were being murder and so quickly too. We need to be able to keep the gospel going. Not every man participated and not every woman either. We no longer take part in this practice and never will. It’s a thing of the past, I don’t know about you but some times the past is not the best thing about a person it’s who they are now.
I want you to understand though those in no way do I mean to offend in any way. And by no means am I trying to force my religion upon you. I just want to clarify a couple of misunderstandings. I respect all religions I just ask that you do the same.
