You are picking at nits here, DU.

Maybe so, but if we are talking about right to speak, you have no right to say what I believe, you may talk about what the church teaches, your experience, and your beliefs, but what is in my heart is specifically something only Jesus can know. This goes to the heart of saying that Mormons are not Christian. You can’t know that. You can say that we don’t teach XXX or that you believe that on order to be Christian YYY but leave my heart out of your discussion.

This specifically is what NNN and I had a nuclear reaction over, he tried to tell me I believed something I found to be pornographic about Mary who I hold to be holy. I undoubtedly overreacted, and for that I am sorry, I still hold that his statement was out of line.

As to the "mormons believe" thing. I will try to state the "mormon church", which is probably more concise.

I believe it will be less inflammatory too.
