>>When are you going to ask the hard questions? <<
Twenty five years ago.
We are discussing events of well over a century ago. There is no new information. Only new spin. I don't need to keep rehashing the Koran, Mein Kampf, or any of the writings of Karl Marx to "solidify" an already thouroughly researched opinion.
There is plenty of information to easily damn all of these works, as well as the BOM and D&C to anyone other than the True Believers. It is really that plain.
The sad thing about Mormonism is that when people DO leave, their first stop is agnosticism or atheism. Merely because of it's proximity to true Christianity it can turn them off to it - for a while. The good news is that many of them move on to the Jesus of the Bible. That is a good thing.

I see at least 10 new archealogical discoveries here a day. I think evidence is growing for my faith and the Book of Mormon and I think it is very plain to see.
I honestly believe I am worshiping the Jesus of the Bible. Do you think I am fooled? Come on, challenge me. I tend to know my stuff.
