I think it was John Wesley who said that if he was drowning, he wouldn't care if the lifeguard was a good Christian......just that he was a good lifeguard.....

Nuff said.

Thanks for the attempt to make sanity reign here on this issue.

Lakeshark,

Apparently you have not read up on Wesley very much. His "attacks" on a theological level on Catholicism are legendary!

His published works contain many references to the incorrect theology and practices of Catholicism and I believe he responded in "letters to the editor" to several Newspapers as well.

I dare say if Mormonism were around during his day, his approach would have been the same.

Of course this is based on the Parable of the Good Samaritan. I do not accept that the LDS is theologically correct, but all of the members I have met are admirable people. (Love the Mormon Choir's Messiah, too)
