I believe that your reply is the classic example of an attempt at "building a straw man", [Why are there these repeated posts attacking Mormons on FR? Aren't Mormons Americans? Do you doubt that they believe their doctrine? Do you believe the share their religious beliefs out of hate?]. There is NO evidence confirming your suppositions regarding anyone questioning their "Americanism", their "belief of doctrine", "sharing beliefs out of "hate"....and there is AMPLE evidence of mormons doing the personal attacking of Christians.

IMO, there is a major difference between the teaching of the love of Christ to Christian children and this article which teaches of so-called "persecution" FOR beliefs. There is nothing in the tale of Smith's tarring and feathering that teaches of love OR of Christ and IMO is highly unsuitable for children of the age of eight.

I can't believe that any educated Christian could believe that attacking someone is a way to bring them to Christ.

Well then, do you approve of 52,000 mormon missionaries going out every day, 24/7 and informing Christians that THEIR faith is wrong and the ONLY way to salvation is to become baptized and confirmed as members of the mormon church and then becomoing "worthy" enough to enter the restricted temples to perform arcane rituals that are supposed to "bind" God to the will of the mormon church?

The problem is that when these missionaries knock on the door, they don't provide the truth of Jesus Christ...nor the truth of mormon belief AND the restrictions therein.

Quoting you: "I can't believe that any educated Christian could believe that attacking someone is a way to bring them to Christ"....I can't believe that any educated PERSON could believe that lying to someone is a way to bring them to Christ. I can't believe that any educated PERSON could believe that sin consists of drinking a cup of tea or coffee, having a glass of the beverage favored by Christ--wine, not wearing the "required underwear", even smoking a cigar...along with not paying a full ten percent of one's income to the church which does not account for it, and that these "sins" will keep one from becoming saved and being "eligible" to join God and The Savior in Heaven.

Quoting you again, "I can't believe that any educated Christian could believe that attacking someone is a way to bring them to Christ."

Provide proof that I attack a "someone". Attacking the cultish beliefs and actions of the institute of mormonism is NOT attacking someone personally and the history of mormon leaders attacking Christianity shows that it is just fine with them.

Watch the following clips for more.

I'm sure you must be right. Could you give me an example of a FReeper Mormon attacking Christianity?
