[. . .How is it, exactly, that you can get mad when people you regard as apostates consider you to be ... apostate? How does that work?]
It seems to me that anyone who is solidly grounded in their Faith will not have the time or inclination to obsess about what other churches are teaching or practicing.

Yes, absolutely- the height of Christian maturity is 24/7 navel-gazing. "I got mine, screw everyone else!" I think that's in the Bible, anyway...
On the other hand, if you look at the authentic Christian Gospel as the only cure for a fatal disease, then you have a sense of urgency to speak of this cure to people suffering from this disease; even people that wrongly think they have another cure. To keep knowledge of this cure to yourself becomes shameful.

You have uttered the most brilliant statement I have seen on FR for a couple of years. Seriously.
"Mormons" and Christians" alike should take heed and attend to the really pressing issues that face us all as individuals and as a Nation....
