Your #768: Basically, to evangelize for Mormonism, right?

That is the oft-repeated charge, as though it is okay for everyone else but not for me. How many times have I seen a post that claimed what I posted was soul-destroying, that I was going to hell and taking many others with me, not because of any behavior on my part, but simply because they disagreed with my faith and had drawn a circle attempting to exclude it from Christianity.

I used the word "witness". Is it bad if I witness, but okay if others witness?

>> As stated your goal is not discussion with those who post, but to influence those who lurk.

My point was that even though it appears that my posts fall on deaf ears and are therefore useless and futile, there are many, many lurkers.

I take that as a "yes."

***simply because they disagreed with my faith and had drawn a circle attempting to exclude it from Christianity.***

[1] Remember the First Vision, you know the abomination thing said of the creeds of Joseph's day.

[2] Remember the restored church and priesthood thing where only LDS priests can perform the ordinances?

It is your leaders/founders that drew the circle excluding all other creeds as abominations and others as hypocrites. It is your church's doctrine of the "restoration" of Christianity that breaks will everyone else viewing them as having lesser revelation and absent any true priesthood.

Question: Do you believe your leaders or not? If you do, are you not guilty of the very thing you accuse others?
