                    CHARACTER AND ENVIRONMENT--SECULAR VIEW
Best-selling secular author and expert in consumer behavior, Malcolm Gladwell, in his book, "The Tipping Point" comes to this conclusion:

Mormons believe that God used to be a man but was able to learn how to be a god, and all Mormon men are striving to become gods just like their heavenly
