As an Episcopalian, the question of wine or grape juice is superfluous,

Well, I hate to kick a guy when he is down, but the Eucharist is a principle staple of Episcopalian ritual and I suspect that guys like Vicky Gene Robinson take the Eucharist at least every week and it does not appear that taking the Eucharist for him and for millions of other Episcopalians has been in any way effective in keeping him or his church from falling into the gravest of errors.

So when you start arguing that something like an Episcopalian Eucharist "offered by those in Apostolic Authority" might just turn a Mormon from the error of his ways, I have to laugh. Heck apparently a majority of those in your Church who carry with them this so-called "Apostolic Authority" have fallen into apostasy themselves. So how can we expect that those apostates can use their authroized eucharistic ritual to turn a budding Mormon from the error of his ways?

The fact of the matter is that despite the fact that your church gives the Eucharist to its members every week, your church is in just as much of a state of apostasy as the Mormons.

Gee! If the Episcopalians are doing it, it must be right!

NOT!

It’s hard to wield moral authority when the guy trying to do it is bunk buddies with your weird Uncle Butch.

If that's what you got from what I wrote, either I'm not being plain enough or you're reading too fast. The essence is, if the denomination from which Mormonism recruits Christians to Mormonism were feeding the body and blood of OUR Lord more appropriately, the weak Christians would not be wandering into Mormonism.
