The church is perfectly perfect the way it is.

Our own Scripture says it's not meet for us to be commanded in all things.
I can't think of a single principle of the Gospel that is old fashioned. Certain guidelines do get updated from time to time. As an example, the General Authorities used to specifically condemn 'R' movies; today the counsel is to avoid any "inappropriate material." Obviously they thought that at least some 'PG-13' movies were bad, too, but decided to let each person come up with their own personal standard.
The only principle that is very politically incorrect is the belief that marriage should be reserved for heterosexual unions. I don't foresee a change on the Church's stance anytime soon.

Why do you have laws outside of God's word? And what makes people follow those laws? Passions are good if directed and used the right way! Think about this: If we devoted more to our relationship with God don't you think we could conduct our lives better without the man made laws within the Church's..We all have to change with the technologies of the age that surrounds and that goes without saying..

The Church does not change to follow the ways of the world. It follows the word of God. if he wants it to change, then he will tell the prophet until then, i will continue to follow the rules in place :)

Mat 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

Yes! You should adopt the Wiccan High Ritual (in which the clergyman or priestess has sex with members of the congregation) at the Midsummer Festival.

Law doesn't change. God doesn't change. What is right and wrong doesn't change. Therefore, nothing should change as far as the Church is concerned.

Might as well, most other churches have. You could, of course, follow Catholicism.... they won't turn from truth to suit the popular opinion.

I think it would be simpler for you to vote with your feet.
If you think they are out of touch with what God wants.
I'm Catholic, so I don't understand why Mormons exist.
We don't believe there can be any new revelation.
We do recognize private revelation to individuals.
But it's not mandatory that anyone else believe it.
