Silly beliefs.

Stolen from The Thinking Atheist podcast, what is the most silly think you used to believe? I used to believe heavily in reincarnation from one human life to another.

I used to believe people were sane and generally good?

As a former Mormon, there are so many insane beliefs I could not list them all.
But for example

Bigfoot is the eternally cursed Cain son of Adam wandering the earth till Judgement day
Satan has power over water so swimming is a dangerous pass time for the devout
God lives on a planet orbiting the Star Kolob at the centre of the galaxy
There is a Mrs God
The Adam God Doctrine is both true and an abominable lie, depending on which prophet you believe, even though both are guided by God
That special underwear bought in the temple will not only protect your junk from Satan, but is bulletproof
Inter racial marriage should be punished by putting both partners to death
There is no such thing as homosexuality, just the choice to sin.

I shared many of these beliefs growing in a Mormon cult. It's amazing how crazy they are when you're out if it but seem so reasonable when you're in it.
