Why can't we leave it alone?

I would love nothing more than to "leave it alone." However, my wife still wants to attend. She also wants our children to attend and to be taught all the doctrine and to engage in all the rituals and rites of passage. (Baptism, priesthood, etc.)

I do so wish I could walk away and leave it alone. But it will continue to be an integral part of my life, whether I like it or not.

It's difficult to not become bitter towards an organization that misrepresents itself. It's hard to not resent the methods the church uses to retain members to the point where even when they learn the truth, they still want to be involved with it.
