Kill them and leave the conversion details to God.

If they are menacing your neighbors, you may defend your neighbors.

like the old Quaker who, accosting a burglar, said “I would not hurt thee for the world but thou standest where I am about to shoot...”

I’ve been praying for shock, awe, and all around harshness, the better to bring about a speedier repentance!

When I give thanks at the table, I always ask for health by our eating this food, wisdom to make wise decisions and strength to carry them through

I think the way to pray is ask for wisdom to make a wise decision ... then strength to carry it through

I've already given you my answer as I hear God speak to me.

Besides, your “strong mind” WILL, not might, fail you at some point.

If God prepares a table for you in the presence of your enemies... that means you have enemies....

Yeah, because “religion” is about what men approve.

Once you find God actually answering you, then you realize religion is baloney. What do you need people to control your access to God?

I say we kill them first and then let the Mormons baptize them after they are dead.

Yes — we should pray for the defeat of the organization and for the conversion of its members.
