None of us "Mormons," with one misguided exception, has attacked you and your beliefs.

No, but a whole pack of your compatriots has sought to have us all banned for asking any questions about your religion or your leaders.

"No, but a whole pack of your compatriots has sought to have us all banned for asking any questions about your religion or your leaders. I honestly don't know anything about attempts to have anyone "banned" for "asking questions" or for any other reason.

I must observe, however, that I have witnessed a tremendous amount of inexplicable hate and falsehood spewed forth by many whenever anything related to "Mormons" appears on the FR.

Indeed, I have never attacked or even criticised or called into question anyone's faith, on the FR or elsewhere, and, as many Roman Catholic and other FReepers may have noticed, I (FWIW) have defended against the attacks of other FReepers both Roman Catholics and those of other faiths.

I also and have praised and even expressed personal thanks for the good works for the righteous works of the many priests, nuns, brothers, missionaries and others engaged in the Lord's work here on earth.

I have sought here to clarify misconceptions and refute outright and vicious lies. And I have rebuked some individuals, betimes too often and with too much force perhaps, those who have spewed venom and lies at or about the "Mormon" Church as well as those directed at Roman Catholicism, Judaism, "Born-Again" Christianity, Sikhism, and many others.

One last word and sincere suggestion to all who read this: if you would know the truth about a religious denomination or even an individual, speak to friends of same and do not expect to learn the truth from enemies thereof.

All the best, and I hope that you have or will find comfort, strength, edification, truth, faith, hope as you seek to develop your relationship with God on whatever path you choose.....
