My advice to any one who wants to convert Mormons away from Mormonism is to study our religion, understand us, then when you can “speak our jargon” you will have a better chance at convincing us from the inside, that attack posture just isn't too convincing.

Unless of course you were born into Mormonism, spent your life there and are more fluent in the language and culture of Mormonism than Americanism. If you left to eventually find Christ in Christianity - then don't bother speaking - we won't listen to you, you sinning anti! :D

That's OK...Glenn will make it all better...he will retrieve the golden plates, use his microphone at Fox to spread the word of the "restored" gobblydegook...Glenn will pour his truth into the ears of the unbelievers and boost the earnings of the Corporation to new heights, and lastly, HE will smite down all the apostates while certain fans high five with glee.

All things are possible with Glenn if you follow the conversation on FR.

CC, i know many who have left the church, and not become anti Mormons. BTW, my definition of an “anti” is someone who goes about trying to destroy the faith of people in a religion. Indeed, I see anti Mormons, anti Catholics, baptists, and even anti Christians. I hold them all at the same level of “respect”. In short, it's not that you left the church, that is between you and God, it's what you are choosing to do with you life and it's negative consequences on you, and on others.

IMHO, antis of all stripes do themselves far more harm by being negative all the time than they do to any religion, or belief system they oppose.

Are you an ex-Mormon, yep are you an anti, well you have declared yourself to be and your actions give me no reason to question your word. I am really sorry you had a bad experience with a bishop and what sounds like a loser of a husband, but in truth, there are people of all stripes in all religions, what is the net effect of the religion? is it a positive message? No good thing can come from Satan. I believe that almost all churches have some redeeming qualities, anti’s don't appear to have that opinion.

anyway, gotta go, sorry this post was so long, I didn't have the time to write a short one. /sic
