   == Openness and honesty ==  Thanks for the note. I appreciate your perspective.  I am active LDS.  I love the church.  I teach Elder's quorum and serve on the stake athletics committee.  I read my scriptures, have family prayer, pay tithing, etc.  I do not hate the church.  I just believe in openness and honesty.  I believe in telling all sides of a story.  I believe in not hiding the truth, or alternative points of view.  I hope and pray you can learn to respect other points of view, and to love truthwherever it's found.
