Second time you have posted this same bit of Rhetoric.
Yet you come with nothing in had to back your charge...

Wonder why that is...


Because there are too many people here twisting and misrepresenting. Unlike some of them it would seem, I can’t spend all day long here correcting them.

So, instead of wasting my breath on those that obviously have no real interest in the truth, I point out to others that what is being done here daily, attacking Mormonism, shouldn’t be where you get all of your info.

Right...

Sit at the poker table, receive your cards, declare a royal flush, stick your cards in your pocket and walk away before being called...

It works, unless of course you try and grab the pot as you leave...

I do appreciate your playing though. Another demonstration of the empty hand of Mormonism is always helpful...

Exactly right! You should go out now and rent the original Battlestar Galactica series. And the new Battlestar Galactica series. And the movies. And pre-order Caprica from Amazon. And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith, the truth of it will be manifested unto you.

How? Have a friend take pictures of you; if your eyes seem to glow with a red cylon light, you know it's true! If your portrait doesn't come out with red eyes, just keep taking pictures until it does.

SHOW ME ONE THING THAT I MISREPRESENTED, if it is prevalent as you say it shouldn’t be a problem.

But the real reason Mormons don’t defend their faith is because THEY CANNOT, it is not defensible.

Fair enough. Wait until you have time and just respond to one blantant misrepresentation. If the errors are so obvious, it shouldn't be hard to disprove.

Attacking Mormonism? We are asking questions about the conflicts of your religion and your scriptures.

We seek understanding and clarification and rarely receive anything other than feigned indignation when we point out your tenets.

The funny thing is, a week ago I had a friend attempt to tell me that there was a historical LDS and then a modern doctrine. We were discussing a specific subject in which the modern doctrine coincides with the historical doctrine.

The reply? “There is a historical LDS and there is a modern doctrine”.

To which I only said “Oh?”.

In the back of mind I was trying to understand the statement in the context of the current student manuals, words and revelation of the prophets, etc. and just stood there in stunned blankness.

This person was a missionary at one point so the answer could have only been one thing but perhaps that is not the case if one is not “truthfully and heartfelt in seeking the spirit and word of the truth of LDS”(paraphrased)
