do NOT mention ADD, your knees, your faith, or any other non technical
related aspect of your life in a job interview.  Just a tip for future
reference.  They can't legally ask you about those kinds of things,
and it is a very, very good idea to keep them to yourself.

My only comment is that the LDS environment and teachings make it very
hard to separate the good done in a community environment with the skewed
one sided representation of the church history and doctrine.

If you really want to tweak your parents and satisfy your curiosity, read
about Dr. Michael Quinn, who was a history professor at BYU.  He was one
of the few who had access to the LDS archives, and was a leading researcher
on LDS history.
