| The Book of Mormon was written for Mormons by John Smith. It’s not relevant outside of Mormonism. No other Christian religion follows it. It was nothing to do with the framework of Christianity. It was written in the 19th century. Much of it borrows from the King James Version of the Bible, but som... |

| As TwilightPrincess has said, the term Christian is an umbrella term for any Christian denomination, including Catholicism & Protestantism. . Duhhhhhh.... Thats my point.

| Does anyone really want to read a whole bunch of what you just copied/pasted? I mean, summarizing is a thing. I have adhd personally so wouldn't even bother with all of that unless I was researching it formally. |

| ^ There was a rivalry between The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints (formerly known as the Church of Christ) & other traditional Christian churches who saw them as threat to their own Christian denominations, in the early days of it being established. My old buddy was a Latter Day Saint. |

| I read parts of the Book of Mormon . It was hilarious. I’ve read some of the Qu’ran - not funny IMO. Of course, maybe I just wasn’t in the right frame of mind. I also thought the Book of Mormon was silly in some parts. As I think the bible is, also, in parts. But the framework of morality for Chris... |

I consider myself a Christian.
I don't go to church however, and I am not part of any Christian community.
I have an internal dialogue with God. |

Oh, I missed the 'not strong enough' part of your initial post. I didn't see that for some reason. |

^ Wasn't your ex the bold and egotistical dude, though?
A lot of men are shy, or autistic, or both. |

I used to dislike it too. And it happened slowly over time.
Certain people seem destined to drift out of one's life, and if you are autistic, like people have said, there seems to be an undercurrent of hatred towards autistic folk. |
