But let me repeat a point I made on another thread. Because I enjoy learning about other religions, I have frequently visited book stores of many faiths: Baptist, Catholic, Mormon, Jewish, Buddhist, etc. Only in the bookstores of fundamentalist Christians will one find a whole section of books on the “cults,” which attack other religions. There is that section of Christianity that will spend hours upon hours pouring through the literature on other religions trying to find things that will embarrass them. I find a certain amount of aggression among the fundamentalists that wants to attack and destroy rather reach out with respect or go about their own business.
That's funny because most of the Anti-Mormon literature is the old Mormon literature. Books like Bruce McConkie's Mormon Doctrine are a great source for quotes about the Mormons that Mormons run from.
Jerald and Sandra Tanner basically did nothing more than reprint a bunch of old Mormon literature and the Mormon Church went banannas. Now that it is all out there on the internet, you guys have to come to grips with it, but back in the 1960's and 1970's the Mormon church did its level best to suppress all that information.
Why don't you show us a good book on Mormon Doctrine written by a Mormon Apostle or Prophet that will clear up all these issues about what you guys believe or don't believe. It seems that everytime one of your apostles writes a book, it gets pulled from the shelves by the same guys who ordered it published.
[it is my opinion that the anti literature is shallow, distorting, repetitive, and doesn’t compare to the extent, the depth, and the scholarship on the Mormon side.]
he said as he quotes absolute blue sky.
Come now BB, I’ve quoted everything under the sun to you apologists, and the standard reply is to whine that everything from the anti side is a lie. Besides, you are lost to reason, my reply was meant for someone who still had an outside view that is forming. You are a bubble-boy who will never accept anything from outside the mothership.
