My question is why have you chosen to put your faith into Mormonism?

I would assume most Mormons are Mormons because their parents brought them up that way. The same goes for most religions.

Xhonzi may have said it in harsh way (on another thread), but I agree that children should be left alone until they are an age where they can reason for themselves. We are talking about about an age where kids are trusting enough to believe that an old guy lives on the North Pole and delivers gifts to all the children of the world in a single night in a sled pulled by flying reindeer.

70% of Mormons were not raised in the Church, though I'm sure this is more common outside the US.

Children should be left alone with regard to religion? What about dietary beliefs? What about morals? Should we leave them alone about everything until they can decide for themselves if it's right? Believe me, if a child does not want to believe in something, there will come a time when that child will have the opportunity to choose for him/herself.
