I am glad I am not a Mormon, and I do not want any control from them in my life.
By the way, I don't believe in eternal damnation, tho I believe in an afterlife right after death.
You'll find a full explanation in the Wikipedia. I just came from there and then back here, and can hold just so much in my head.
As I said, the claims, teachings and rules of the Mormon church, and its control of the lives of its members* I want no part of. Nor do I want any church that practices excommunication to suppress and control its members, in my life.
* Mormons are, I understand, made to believe that they have spirit children awaiting birth ,and are thus encouraged to have more children than they would normally want. A PBS documentary on Mormonism wrapped up with the study of a case where a woman, convinced by the church that she still had a spirit son awaiting birth, disregarded the urgent advice of her doctor NOT to have any more children - her pregnancies had complications and the last one almost killed her- and got pregnant again. A baby WAS born, but she died soon after giving birth, tho the doctors did all they could to save her life.
