If you want to be temple worthy member of the flock - you do what you are told which includes regularly paying tithing on all gross income including investment income, maintaining positive daily behaviors to wards other church members, avoiding alcohol and some forms of caffeine, and accepting all callings to church positions.

There are two truths the LDS church doesn't want anyone to know. 1. there are more ex-Mormons than Mormons and 2. the Mormon church owns more real estate, shopping malls, and condos than any other church.
