A former Mormon now Christian describes the secret rituals, temple marriage ceremony, and the work for the dead in the Mormon Church. Glossary of Mormon Terms. End Notes. This description may be from another edition of this product.
A quick background..My great-great-grandfather had 3 wives. He was also one of the founders of St. George, Utah. He also built the hand carts that the mormons used for their trek. I am not a mormon, my mother would not alllow it. My father was baptised mormon, but did not attend the church. Because there was no church where he grew up. I read the book and learned from it. I loaned it to the pastor of my church. His mother was dating a mormon. He said it was a very good book, and gave him a lot of insight to the church. I would read Judy Robertson's book, before I even concered becoming a mormon. Karen
Incredible Information

I highly recommend this book to all who have an interest in finding out the truth about the seamy side of Latter Day Saints, ie, Mormons. It is a real eye opener. I read it because, several years ago, my daughter became associated with a group of Mormon dancers/performers and was one of the few Christians involved. When I would talk to other parents, who were most kind and solicitous, and ask for details about their religion, they glowed and gushed but never gave me anything really definite, nothing with strength or "meat" to it. They did offer to sponsor me or help me find out more about joining the Mormon faith. In talking to them, I found that there were a large quantity of arguments presented to me as to why Christianity didn't work, but these were very pat and almost the same, word for word, from many mouths. There were offers to give me a copy of the Book of Mormon, which I did read. It seemed disjointed and not logical. I bought "No Regrets" by Judy Robertson, because I needed more information. It confirmed some uneasy suspicions that I had, plus added new knowledge, sometimes quite astounding and frightening, that allowed me to realize why no concrete principles had been laid before me by my Mormon friends. I believe what is written and will recommend this book to any who might ask.
Very informative

This book gave lots of insight as to what goes on inside the Mormon church and the beliefs that most people are unaware of. I have recommended it to many of my Christan friends to better understand what the Mormons at their front doors are really preaching.
Informative!

I was very close to joining the Mormon church when a friend gave me this book. How grateful I am! Judy writes from the heart and shares her views about the church as well as some very personal examples from her own life in the church. I would not recommend this book as the first to give to someone leaving the church, as it is not from the apologetic side. It is very blunt and brutally honest. I did give this book to a friend who had been struggling with his Mormon religion after he had read and studied about the church a bit and he was blown away. To anyone thinking of joining the church, please read this book first! It will open your eyes to the falsehood of the Mormon church. Thank you Judy Robertson for your honesty. It will change the lives of people forever!

I found this book to be an excellent source of information on Mormonism. I moved to Gilbert, AZ from the Midwest in 1990, not ever knowing what a Mormon was or that they had existed. My curiousity has drawn me to locate information on the Mormons to find out more about them. This book was one of the greater sources I have found.In my years of living in a highly populated Mormon neighborhood, and having Mormom friends and co-workers I have always wanted to know more about this group. I have found that trying to get any information just to educate myself is next to impossible without someone attempting to convert me, or critize my Christian beliefs. I was greeted openly by my Mormon neighbors, when I first moved here, until they wanted to know what ward I belonged to. Upon finding out that I was not Mormon, and not willing to be converted, I have received a very cold shoulder. My need for information and knowledge has been a goal for me, being new to the area, as I did not understand them or why I was getting a cold shoulder. I now understand more, and am very greatful to Judy Robertson in writing this book to help me understand. Living as one of the very few non-Mormons in my neighborhood, I can tell you that Judy Robertson was a very brave person to have written this book to tell the truth and still live in the area. I have always been a devout Christian, and sometimes my faith is challenged. I am very glad that my faith is strong and I found the resources to answer my questions! Thank you Judy Robertson for such a knowledgable book!
