Where the growth in their missions is says a great deal about where their focus is.

When I was training to be an LDS missionary we were told to focus on those going through ‘transitions’ and the poorer neighborhoods because they were more likely to accept.

Now, that doesn’t mean that there weren’t missionaries in wealthy areas, but we were told the missions were where people were more likely to join.

Vendome quoted LDS sources and used good reason in his post. Based upon my experience, I see it as entirely possible and not ‘made up at all’.

BTW, Mormons are not Christians, by their doctrines.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Nonsense! It isn’t that way for our church. We put a **LOT** of effort into Europe and have very few converts.

Unbelievable!

Please re-read my post. I didn’t say they were.
