(Dr.R.K.) Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints - Conversion Experience Survey

This is the survey that introduced me to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The Elders, that had passed this out to students at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis campus, said that of the 4 years that they had done this I was the only person to be baptized into the Church. I believe they had just started it that quarter when I received it.

In the survey below, I also put my responses and my comments in italics. At the time I would listen to Garner Ted Armstrong of the World Wide Church of God on the radio and read their magazine the "Plain Truth". I listed this as my religion at the time, and not Lutheran the religion I nominally grew up with. (Note: Garner Ted Armstrong was later excommunicated by his own father for adultery. I no longer hear much about them since they no longer have their charismatic speaker)
