... but even I can’t help notice that, after expressing incredulity as the FReepers who would “excommunicate you,” Logophile ust told you you’d better be out of the Mormon church.

Not at all. I think she would be better in the LDS Church. (I think everyone would be better in the LDS Church.) But if in fact she is no longer a member, then she should not pretend to be one.

Once again, you seem to have just equated accepting Mormon doctrine with membership, and suggested that if one retains membership without accepting the doctrine, than she is just “pretending to be one.”

Contrast this with the Catholic church, where we will proudly excommunicate those who lead others astray, but welcome the misled in the hopes that God will convert their hearts.

Or did I grossly misunderstand what you meant by “pretend to be one”? If so, how does she in any way misrepresent her membership?

Oh?

Has she(?) done this?

All I've seen is statements of how LONG she'd been a member.
