Non religious people that arent stuck in nearly cult like micro communities probably wont really grasp how devastating it can be. Like scientologists, spme mormons literally stop contact with their immediate family.
Though its true there are good and bad in every good. The founding of mormonismis much like that of a cult created by someone who is permanently broken for excessive LSD use and now its become worldwide with the trips. Thats why i feel mormonism is itself a scam. Moreso than other religions. My family has a few as well back home. Come to think of it, not just the reading but the entire thing is much like a pyramid sheme. Missionaries instead of sales agents.
I actually know a couple of Mormons who left the faith, but theyâre still in contact with their Mormon friends and family members. I think it probably depends on just how uptight the community in question is.
I remember speed reading being a big thing in 1970s America. Lots of TV ads touting speed reading courses, etc. Curious kid that I was, I asked my dad about it. He said they were just skimming and not retaining much information at all. I havenât heard much about speed reading since the late 1970s.
