Just because many people tell me that it could be possible that humans could become gods, that doesn't make it the truth.
But the thing that I found most upsetting, was the fact that my missionaries denied this whole belief in multiple gods before I was baptised, even though I specifically asked them, and only told me after I had paid some of my yearly 10%.
I'm not anti-mormon. I'm still in contact with some church members, I don't courage people to leave the church.

You are quite young and I suspect that, regardless, there are years of prayerful study prior to understanding the basic doctrines of the Gospel. By the way, nobody is angry at you for not understanding this doctrinal principle.
In your lexicon, what does the word "god" means to you? What does it implies? You should start there since, it appears to me that thus far semantics are getting in the way of you comprehending this issue.
