Hi, I am 15 and a mormon. I love the church with all my heart and knows it makes me a better person at the end. Although sometimes I wish I could wear certain dresses and what not and accidently cuss every so often, I know my standards will make me a better me.
PRO
Family environment
Connect with the lessons
CON
Dress restrictions
Where is my freedom of speech?

I am leaning towards Atheist and I don't really know how to to or want to tell my family because they are all Mormons and very religious and Judgmental. I feel as if I am betraying people because I have been raised mormon all of my life and I am 15 now and just starting to believe god isn't really there...
PRO
umm...
CON
very very judgemental

hey, im a mormon teenager, we are allowed to do a lot of stuff but we are also not allowed to do a lot of stuff.
personally i know a lot of teen mormons who believe in everything but still rebel and stuff.
i have freedoms, i go to parties, and go hang out with friends, i dont drink or smoke, i rarely swear. i have struggled with my religion, but i know its true.
id say im a pretty average teen..

I'm LDS

PRO: great friends, nice people, the Spirit, the Book of Mormon and other Scriptures to lead you on your way, external marriage/families, knowledge, the priesthood, eternal happiness, and many more!
CON: because of your knowledge, you are to be righteous.
Wheres the truth?
I found a woman who is an ex mormon but did some research. She wanted to know the truth and wanted her true love so she tried. But she also has reasons for leaving the church, and they sound reasonable. take a listen!

nonmember
Mormons seem friendly and welcome new guests, but I feel very pressured (I have gone to the church meetings sometimes) it seems like to much time within one day. Many of my friends go to a morning class called seminary and they seem exhausted by the time they get to school. It must be really rough. One of my friends has juvenile fibromyalgia and has a hard time falling asleep let alone waking up... it's a side affect! But she has had several days where she has fallen asleep in many classes in school, sometimes even several times a day.
PRO:
the lessons seem detailed and motivational
They are very welcoming
CON:
with a lot of high school work already, and puberty, teens don't need more on their plate
Sleep amount
No caffeine
No tea

My opinions are more questions like: if our body is a temple why can girls get piercings and boys can't if we are created equal? And why did Joseph Smith hide his 33 wives from his wife Emma? aren't we suppose to be true and faithful to our spouse's? And why did mormons follow the racist trends and not allow blacks to hold the priesthood? I love the family environment but I'm questioning if the actual religion and teachings are true, or its all just a big fat con-manned lie?

I hate that I am scolded for having non member friends. and that I have to float around around all of the rest of the mormon girls. There so clicking, so they don't accept me anyways. It's also weird that I'm allowed to hang out with mormon boys my age, but not boys that aren't mormon. Seriously!? They are still teenage boys! A religion can't change there teenage views!

I am currently 14 years old and can think for myself. I have been raised as a Mormon since I was only a couple months old. My parents are converts but they have a strong conviction in the church. But I have a strong conviction against it.
CON:
Make you feel guilty if leaving or even questioning

I'm a Mormon, sadly. They think their the perfect religion and that their the ONLY
perfect religion. Do you realize that almost EVERY religion says that, what makes
This one so special? Cuz dude, Others and mormonism itself try to tell you their
Side and their reason for perfection. To be honest, I don't even trust the English
Languaged Bible,since its basically a translation on a translation on a translation.
And not all sentences come out the same, you have to rearrange words and
Sometimes replace them when translated. So it's never the same as the original
and is now errorred. Think what you want, that's just from my perspective.

it's amazing having something to help you in tight problems
PROS:
I feel that I'm not on my own and that others are there for me like a family
Food is always a plus
The comfort of the holy ghost
The girls make a lot of the right choices
Mostly all of the marriages are REAL love and compassion
CONS:
Not a lot of activities with the girls (come on!)
A lot of the volunteered teachers

It's a rough world when your not even in it.
PRO:
I feel safe
People tend to keep an eye on you
CON:
people tend to keep an eye on you
Lessons never click with me (always taught the same way )
No dateing till 16
No shorts or tank tops
No bikinis
Feel like I'm not part of the modern world
People at school consider us by the old mormon roots
Some people don't even consider us christians

breathe
Things happen for a reason, and it doesn't have to make sense to us. Or its just very unusual. But everyone goes through a rough stage in their life. When they feel they are alone, neglected, or emotionally, or physically abused. Your not alone. Trust me. Some challenges that people face are easier than others, and some just push people to the last string, their last breathe. Not even joking. Think, believe, and trust in yourself. Give yourself reasonable goals, and punishments that won't hurt you.
