How about this for an argument:

Dag Nabbit to Peace By JESUS : You can't accept the simple challenge of the Book of Mormon because you don't have the faith that God will actually answer your prayers....Once you have that kind of faith and humility, then settle once and for all whether the Book of Mormon is true by placing your faith in God to let you know if it is right or wrong...

That is absurd! Your very attempt at an argument appeals to the very tactic I reproved, that of making the objective subject to the subjective, and thus your means is actually an argument against being a Mormon.

The proof text LDS disciples invoke for your means of ascertaining Truth is that of the disciples of Christ expressing how their heart burned within them. However, what they leave out was that this was "while he opened to us the scriptures?" (Luke 24:32)

Which did not mean Truth was determined by a feeling, but that And "beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself." (Luke 24:27)

Thus the "witness to your soul the truthfulness of what you are reading" must conflate with what the Scripture actually says, vs. feelings themselves meaning such is true, for Muslims even claim to see Muhammad in Scripture...

Dag Nabbit to Peace By JESUS • 16 hours ago • edited: Peace by JESUS - You sound really angry. Please forgive my unsophistication. I do not know what you mean by "objective subject to the subjective", and I don't know to what you are referring...

And on it goes.
