I've never been an absolutist myself. But I don't begrudge the people whouse that language, if that is what they feel.
there's a fair number of people walking around with blinders on. both willfully and unknowingly. I think some let down the blinders when they have motivation to do so. So you want an open marriage? May be time to reconsider this Mormon thing.
Some. not all. my limited experience is that none of these looked for reasons to stay. they didn't talk to people who might have been able to speak to their concerns. they wanted out, and wanted to feel justified.
sometimes people come back. Life is messy. why shouldn't religion be the same?
you can have doubts and still engage in this faith.
