Religion: Ex-LDS, Happily Home in The Catholic Church
Default Re: If I Wanted to Start New Religion

^Funny fact- I researched the Universal Unitarian Church a LOT in my inactive LDS days. I really loved the appeal of it, but I just couldn't get behind the idea that God didn't make a set list of doctrine; that everything was up to you on a personal level. I guess even then I should have been looking into the Catholic Church

That is what I would do.
Texan, did you mean to be flippant or have I missed the message?
