  1. Can't say I really have experience with other Christians, at least that I know of. The ones I have encountered have seemed sincerely concerned for my welfare. Well, at least in California. I grew up in Pleasant Grove, Ut and though some 80-90% were members and though not all were active, there was no real problem that I could say, aside from peer pressure. Though, when I went to college and lived in SCL, I was actually afraid of other Christians. So many seemed so angry that those of us who were Mormon, were Mormons. I've been to General Conference and until I reached the Conference center grounds, I was afraid of who I'd run into and what hateful things they'd be screaming and getting into peoples face about. It was really scary and they always seemed to be at least one, you had to avoid around downtown SLC. I did have one or two friends in my Jr. and Sr. High School years and they were as nice as anybody else. Other than that I'm sure I've had encounters with other Christians, I just don't know who they were. Mostly, nice people being nice.
  2. As I've read this thread, the thought keeps running through my mind. "God won't do for us, what we can do for ourselves." I've heard this many times. Heavenly Father sent you the missionaries once, maybe now it's your turn to call them and invite them back into your home. Thus showing Heavenly Father, your serious, you want to know and your willing to make the effort to really know. I know Heavenly Father answers all our prayers. Many times though we have to get up off our knees and go do, for us to get those answers. Have you ever thought, that you being drawn to the church is a sign? Is your answer? Some times we have to do as Alma suggested and just believe. Plant that seed, stop doubting just because your not sure and really try and believe what your reading is true. God can not tell a lie and Satan always does. Why would Satan try and kill Joseph Smith Jr. before he could have the first vision? If he in fact was the one bring out the work. Satan can't bring you happiness and peace. He can't help you feel good. Only God can! So, if you feel good at all and your drawn to the church as you say. Then what do you have to lose by going for it? If nothing you'll show Heavenly Father your really seeking for him and want to do his will. I have a testimony of our Heavenly Father, He's really there and really listening. I know this is his church and he is at it's head. It's a feeling, I can't deny, just have you have a feeling of being drawn to the church. He loves you and I hope you can feel his love and Him personally guiding you. =) Take Care.
