I generally go by "You shall know them by their fruits"

In my experience the Mormon tree has produced good fruit.

Harry Reid notwithstanding.

In mine it has not. I imagine that you haven’t seen what happens when “priesthood” superiority is challenged.

I would also wager that you have never gotten really close to a Mormon; there tends to be a certain distance established between Mormons and those outside the One True Church.

At the same I would appreciate your comments on your experiences - really.

Sexual abuse rates very high in Utah. Affinity fraud just from 2009-2012 among Mormons in the billions...(have exact links if you want 'em)

As for perceived "good fruit"...God looks at the motivation. And, if the motivation is auditioning for godhood, I have it on good authority that an anti-idolatrous God doesn't appreciate "competition."

Good fruit.

What exactly do you mean?

Harry Reid is an exceptionally faithful and true Mormon, how can you dismiss him when the leaders of the church declare him exceptional?
