Church Meetings and what they symbolize to me:
If I get the time I'd like to break down the Plan of Salvation and Nature of Godhead and other crucial belief-structures of the LDS Church, and also the various rituals (yes, I said rituals) that go on in Church Meetings. For now let me just remind people that the word 'Ward' is used for Mental Hospitals and Prisons, that Nephite sounds a lot like Neophyte, that Lamanite sounds a lot like Lame-man-ite, and that the Neophytes become like unto the Lamanites. I don't find it to much of a stretch to think of "Mormon" to be short for "More Money." At BYU I always remembered him by thinking, "Joseph Smith wanted more money so he invinted Mormon into his Book of Mormon." Let me also say something about the Sacrament which I decided after reading Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein. It seems to me that you symbollically eat Jesus Christ's flesh and blood, and you symbollically take his name upon you, and then you pass the sacrament on to the next person. That means that you cannabilize the person who passed you the sacrament and the person you pass it to does the same to you. I picture everyone biting each others shoulders and necks and blood dripping from their mouths as they return the cups to the tray. Consuming of another person's blood seems like a great way to keep members in Sacrament Meeting. The Jehovah Witnesses have a lot of interesting doctrines about blood that make some people queasy too and don't forget Brigham Young's Blood Atonement. I think Christianity would not have survived so well without Churches having Sacraments because of this. Sometimes I drink water from a drinking fountain and I pretend it represents someone's blood, but instead of taking Jesus Christ's name upon me so other people can drink my blood, I take my name upon myself and pretend I am drinking the blood of someone who has hurt me. Read the parable where Jesus feeds the multitude with 2 fishes and 7 loaves of bread. To me the 7 loaves of bread represent the seven types of sinners who follow Christ and the 7 baskets of broken bread represent how they spread themselves to thousands and then have nothing left. Thus I interpret it to mean that by spreading Christianity you destroy yourself but it will never stop spreading like a memetic machine. I think the Bible is the biggest pyramid scheme ever, where you not only invest money but your mind as well.

Church Beliefs and what they symbolize to me:
If I get the time I'd like to take the different lesson manuals and break down each lesson. But for now I'm just reminding myself to emphasize all the techniques by which Mormons are taught to ignore their suffering (by being just "the image of God", by life being just a "speck of eternity", by Jesus suffering "for them", etc, etc... many many more) and how those techniques end up blowing up in some people's faces like a bullet fired in the air that temporarily goes out of sight.
