rayww,
You wrote,[...have you ever read the book of Mormon?...].
No, I have not read the book of Mormon, yet. I am not a member of any affiliation with religious groups, not that any of those groups would not be nice to be a member of. But I have a problem, in a sense, joining a religious affiliation because I feel that I would have to adopt all of their dogmata and not be able to think for myself. I feel that there are many like myself and that their religious affilliation is secondary to their genuine belief. For when I was in the City of Peace, I asked the Rider, who is the Word of God in my experiance,"How can one know a group to be a member of? He answered me and said, " He that is a true believer is one that is a true believer, inwardly. And he that bares good fruit is from a good tree and he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither. Thearfore, by their fruits shall you know them."
