A couple of problems with your answer.
First of all, let's see what you are referring to...

Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou 
camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a 
prophet unto the nations.

First of all, God was addressing Jeremiah, and how he would make HIM a 
prophet, not you or anyone else.
Why do you assume this refers to YOU when it clearly doresn'tdoesn't.
Secondly, where does it say that you GOT TO CHOOSE or pick your religion in 
all of this?
Try harder next time.

Anyway, while we are here, have you ever read the King Follet Discourses?
Could you explain to me why you believe that God has always been God as the 
bible claims and why your main prophet believes otherwise as outlined in the 
discourses?
The only reason I ask this is that as I understand it, it's a complete 
mind-fuck for most Mormons like yourself.
