great story, mine is a bit more complex, I'll post in in full here one day.

I told my parents I didn't want to go to church anymore at age 17. I never did buy into the bs, but it took that long to begin to be openly defiant.

I got married at 19, moved away & got the occasional letter saying where the nearest church was which I ignored.

We had a couple of kids, bought a home, & suddenly I was being called for relief society meetings. I said I was not interested & kept hanging up.

Next, the bishop, with minion in tow, showed up at the front door, demanding that I begin showing up to church. I told him directly to his face I was not interested in any part of church, slammed the door in his face, & he proceeded to pound on it, & the minion reached over to pound on the living room window next to the front porch, both of them yelling at me! My husband came out of his bath & threatened him with the police to get off our property.

Then I got letters to show up to a kangaroo court with witnesses to state why I should remain a member. Naturally I didn't respond, & the ''court'' date went by.

Next I get a letter stating I had been excommunicated.....therefore, I shouldn't be on the books.

I am now 71, had 3 kids, been married 52 years, & I have not been struck down with any wrath.
