The Real Book of Mormon Challenge
Me.
WindySydney began as an online journal detailing my exit from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Since leaving the Mormon Church, I have come to the conclusion that religion does more harm than good. I have also become an atheist, looking for logic and reason instead of accepting things on faith.
I also blog about things going on in my life. I am learning photography, I have a severe addiction to diet coke, I am a proud vegetarian, and I have two of the cutest cats in the world. Life is officially an adventure without the magical fairy-tale ending. I plan on enjoying it.

i just wanted to say i appreciate your posts. i feel what you feel, i just have a hard time putting it into words. i visit your blog every so often and it is so reassuring knowing i'm not alone in this.
i appreciate the time you take to put your feelings and research out there.
sarah - a fellow exmormon (who has not had anything to do with the church for a year but is still having a hard time making the decision to officially resign for whatever reason - my temple recommend just expired yesterday...that seems pretty final as i know i'll never go back to get it renewed!)

Thank you for the comment anonymous. I really appreciate the comments, because it lets me know that I am actually doing some good. Sometimes I feel like I am just ranting and angry, but I *do* feel it's healthy to deal with the anger here instead of other ways.
I hope you keep reading, thanks again!

I had created this post http://aneverendingbattle.blogspot.com/2008/05/my-non-religious-self.html on may 4th but I still havent mailed the resignation forms. I decided I am doing it tomorrow. Thank you for all your great info, I look forward to checking your page everyday! And about those self checkout lines, I swear the rudest most impatient people are the only ones who use them, other than me of course, lol

Sydney your doing a fine job,
And you are not angry because you are a loving and forgiving person just like all of us former mormons.
It just show that you are a human being with feelings and emotions just like all the rest of us human beings.
Who sometimes need a way to vent.
And this is that way.
We all love you sydney.
