“The epitome of your ignorance and disrespect is your repeated reference to Mormon garments. I have explained how all religions use symbols and articles of clothing to remind them of sacred covenants with God. That is not superstition or harm to others.”

But of course you leave out the widespread believe that those garments are imbued with magical powers to thwart evil - which does make them an object of superstition. On this and so many other subjects, just telling the truth ends up being a form of mockery. Like the fact that Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon looking through an opaque peepstone into his hat (the gold tablets not even present), I mean, that kind of stuff mocks itself.

But even when I present documents detailing, for example, how Smith viewed himself as a tinpot general who brought much grief onto his own Mormons by inciting the Danites, well I am still called a liar, a bigot, etc. So remain in your bubble BB, you are a lost soul.

“The fact that you can mock others on such things tells the world about you, and it is not pretty.”

I feel pretty
Oh so pretty
I feel pretty and witty and gay
And I pity
Any girl who isn’t me today
I feel charming
Oh so charming
It’s alarming how charming I feel
And so pretty
That I hardly can believe I’m real

If it is that bad, why are you so obsessed with it. Don’t you have something more important to do? It seems you are the one that has lost your way.
