Quote: On asking different questions, what would you suggest? I have asked, 'Is the BoM true?'.....Nothing. 'Is this church true?'.....Nothing. 'Do I need to be somewhere else besides this Church?.....YES!

You are actually asking great questions. In the Bible Dictionary it says that, "Prayer is a form of work." So along with your asking, are you doing? For example, you asked if the Book of Mormon is true, are you reading the Book of Mormon daily? If not, read it daily and pray daily about it. You asked if the church is true, maybe try attending church or sign up for seminary this next year if you haven't already. I could go on but you get the point. So pray and act. You could even ask what do I need to DO to receive answers to these questions, you may be guided to do some specific things to find your answers. In response to the last answer you received, maybe it isn't that you need to be out the church but maybe that you need to be somewhere in addition to the church...doing service, getting involved in something new...I don't know just a thought.

Lastly, here are a few really good talks that might help, they may seem kind of random but I felt impressed to share them:

And Nothing Shall Offend Them - Elder Bednar
LDS.org - Liahona Article - And Nothing Shall Offend Them

The Quest for Spiritual Knowledge - President Packer
LDS.org - Liahona Article - The Quest for Spiritual Knowledge

Beware of Pride - President Benson
LDS.org - Ensign Article - Beware of Pride

Let me know if you have any more questions, good luck with everything.
