    Funny that I had convinced myself of this too (regarding Michael as Jesus), even though at the time that voice in my head was saying, "why would you know something now that God's organization did not? Does it really make sense that you're just waiting for them to catch up to you?"

    This is GREAT stuff, Tammy, thank you. I will keep this one in mind for future opportunities. You'll please forgive me if I do not give you credit, if at some point I say this to a loved one who is still in!

    Welcome. That was a great post. Amazing how you eyes opened as they did, when they did, after so many years. I still wait for my parents to have a similar experience.
