[Sigh] Why am I not surprised at your reluctance? I only wish I can find apostates who are honest and courageous. I can’t count the number who take one look at my books and scamper away. Look, if Mormonism is false, it should be ridiculously easy to prove it. My writings are right there for all the world to see - I don’t need to rely upon other writers to justify my faith in Mormonism - I’ve done the work myself and show my cards before hand. What more do you anti-Mormons want? Oh, that’s right - the preservation of the illusion we can’t support our church.
Well, when you muster up the courage to refute me, cite the specific chapter and prove me wrong. Otherwise, be incredibly fearful for your soul for squandering God’s greatest gift of exaltation that could’ve been yours if only you didn’t screw up and extricate yourself from the body of his Bride.
You can't count me in those numbers. I didn't look at your books....[grin]

How's this for ridiculously easy....
1. The person of Joseph Smith: He was into sorcery, the occult, money digging, and even was a polygamist. He married women that were already married to other men and young girls that were not even adults. He made a plethora of false prophecies.
2. The Book of Mormon: There is absolutely no archaeological evidence whatsoever - no non-biased archaeological foundation has ever found anything regarding the people, the places, animals, artifacts, etc mentioned in the BoM whatsoever. It also contradicts the Bible many many times. It's been changed, added to, and deleted from over 4000 times since 1830. DNA evidence has proven the Book of Mormon a fraud. I could go on and on about this...
3. The Book of Abraham in the Pearl of Great Price has been proven without a single doubt to be a complete fabrication and completely made up by Joseph Smith. It also demonstrates that Joseph Smith was extremely capable of writing the Book of Mormon and proves Smith to be a false prophet.
4. Not a single LDS doctrine that is unique to the LDS Church can be supported by the Bible - not one. In fact, literally every doctrine that is unique to the LDS Church is refuted by the Bible.
We should keep this simple since I am so (how did you put it?) incapable of reasonable discourse and I have such closed mindedness puts to lie their claim of wanting to know the truth. And yet, Ive also encountered those who simply didnt understand the Gospel properly or approached it using false assumptions.
So please keep it simple so I can understand. You know, like the Bible says :"Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God. Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it." Mark 10:14-15 (NKJV)
And you will be told that it only looks that way from YOUR perspective.
