Hi, I'm Dahlia. I've been lurking for a month or so and getting some really good info on Mormonism here. I'll go over to another forum to ask my questions about the religion, but I thought I'd stop here and say 'hi.'

I'm a middle-aged person who is pretty happy with things, but also think things could be better. I don't belong to a religious community here and have been thinking something is missing from my life for awhile. I've been (and am) reading about Mormonism for awhile and trying to learn as much as I can. I like this site because even though it is pro-Mormon, it seems that people aren't afraid to state some problems that they've had as well. Very balanced, I'd say. I also like the convert posts.

I found out an old friend of mine (with a similar religious background) had converted to LDS, so I've been even more intrigued about this church.

So, 'hi' everybody.

Welcome. There is a tension today between the secular and the religious, or perhaps the objective and the subjective, that is quite intense. I think the vocabulary we use helps to muddy the issue.

Faith, belief, objective, evidence, proof -- these all have meanings that have changed drastically over the decades and even centuries.

I try to be conversant, if not knowledgeable, in both the scientific and the mystical/mythic traditions of man.

Enjoy the forums!
