If you do, why do you believe in God?

Insurance 'nightmare' unfolds for Florida homeowners after back-to-back hurricanes
Less than 10 days after Helene made landfall, Florida braces for another hurricane, potentially a Category 3
You're about to be raised as an undead by a necromancer. You have a choice what type of undead you come back as. What do you come back as?
You just got in a major car crash. What's the most ironic song you'd have playing.
what're some of your gaming hot takes? In regards to opinions about certain characters or plot points, etc.
What 90's movie or media trope would be great as a stranger things style show?
So, for the sake of this post isn't "I'm trying to convert you to my religion" I'm going to try and summarize our points of belief while more or less answering your question, and I'm not doing it out of a debate, but merely to answer you :)
It's not really "we think we're lucky or better than anyone else" hell we actually believe that God is a God of fairness that doesn't value one person over another. Ie. "We are all his children and he loves us equally" is a core belief we hold. And as apart of that belief, we firmly hold it true that God will ensure that all his children who lived or died without hearing his gospel will have the opportunity too. That's point 1
Point 2. Yes you can most certainly have spiritual experiences outside of the LDS faith or any faith for that matter. We tend to refer to that as "The light of Christ" but for a summarized explanation. We basically summarize that as, a testimony of truth wherever it may be found God will bare witness of it.
And I also tend to lean towards a lot of Buddhist tenants myself btw. The concept of a state of being called Nirvana, that life is suffering (Though I know that's not exactly what he said) and a few other ideas they hold I agree with.
