Maybe it is just time for you to seek God outside of a structured religion for a while.
That's a kind suggestion but been there done that. I've never had a "god" to feel attached to and I never found him/her/it...whatever this thing is supposed to be.
You're right though, logically, the folly of mormonism does not imply the folly of theism in general. But that was not my process in the beginning. I kind of started in both directions. Becoming a mormon apologist on one end of the candle and becoming skeptical of theism in relation to the Abrahamic religions on the other side of the candle. You could say I got burnt out. haha.
