The 13 Articles of Faith is an excellent beginning. I would also suggest reading the Book of Mormon, keeping the 10 Commandments, and praying daily. But if you are looking for some good instruction about LDS doctrine, I would look to the Gospel Principles manual. Here is a link. https://www.lds.org/manual/gospel-principles?lang=eng

I’m still looking. I found in you article: “But the point is that with the merit badges, we have the correct principles outlined by the rules and bylaws of the Boy Scout program. But then we are allowed to govern ourselves in selecting our own path to the Eagle Scout award.” … where can an attempting LDS student find the ‘correct principles outlined’ like they do in the Boy scout program? Are they as simple as the 13 articles of faith?
