Martha Nibley Beck - Leaving The Saints: How I Lost The Mormons And Found My Faith

Pros: Well written, curiously funny at times considering the subject matter.
Cons: Some exaggerated details. Mormons might be offended.

“It is understandable that nearly all the standard exposes of Mormonism have been written by women” –Hugh Nibley It’s strangely ironic that Hugh Nibley, the late Mormon scholar and apologist would make the statement referenced ...

Pros:

We can see by history whenever people feel threatened in any way they lash out.

Cons:

A shame really. People will sell their souls for fame and money.

I understand Mrs. Becks hurt as to lash out at her father for abusing her but to attack a church for one persons demons eludes me. I can only see it as financial gain and getting back at her father. She says she loves her parents. Where's her new found faith's forgiveness? They say people leave the church but "can never leave it alone."

Such a learned woman doesn't see her unforgiveness and bitterness even from the fact she studied the human phsyce.

I know intelligent people aren't gullable enough to blame a whole church or God for that matter for an individual's actions. Let's face it none of us are perfect and of course "those who are can cast the first stone."
