Wow, this feels like BYU-UNLV 2004 all over again.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.

Since there isn't a solid conservative candidate available (and despite my temporary defection, I remain a conservative, as does Christopher), I'm going with the guy I perceive will be the best leader.

But thanks for the heads up on your view of post-adolescent mind changes. I was thinking of bagging the LDS Church, too, and joining your Wiccan, Philosophies of Men, Appletini-sipping cult, but now I'll stick with the Church after all. I wouldn't want to lose your respect.
One more thing. I don't drink appletinis.
