Frankly, even I agree with SeattleUte on this one. Mormon culture can be pointless and irrelevant at best, obnoxious and demeaning at worst. This is made all the more worse by the fact that it is supposed to elevate a man's spirit to celestial heights. Even faithful, active Mormons who think differently than other faithful, active Mormons often find themselves at the receiving end of significant amounts of hatred and bile-- exempli gratia, I give you this board. I also submit that any person who has left the church suffers tremendously as a result of treatment from the members.

Unlike SU, however, I see a sharp distinction between Mormon culture and the LDS religion.
