Congrats on the new blog!I think you’ve got a point with the UUs. Though if Mormondum were to dispear, I think I would probably go to an extreme Naturalistic perspective. I would have to explain all the manifestations of God in my life. If Mormonism was fallacious, then there would have to be some underlying properties of biology and nature that would have to do the explaining.I would still recognize that religion is good for society and culture, but I think I might end out in a place like Camille Paglia or something.Oh, BTW, you need to enable non Blogger users to post comments.

I would definitely try to find something that has shorter meetings and fewer time obligations. My experiences at Episcopalian churches have been okay, but I don’t know that I would be able to take the plunge. I’d rather have a situation where I show up once a week, hear something out of the Bible, and then take off.

I’d probably go for something totally different and be a Muslim. Your blog looks like it will be interesting. And thanks for the link to our blog.

I think I’d be a Catholic because I like the liturgy and the sense of papal authority.But then again, Southern Baptist also appeals to me because of the free praise of the Savior.

Welcome JC!Does no-one here feel like starting their own religion? How about a Oneida community for the 21st century….

I am shocked (shocked!) that I guessed wrong. Guess he has too much of the Mormon or the Jedi in him.I am surprised that no-one has yet gone pagan (although, I suppose it is possible that I have).
