I recall the Christian "missionary" efforts of my youth. It was at the height of the "devil music" hysteria. Backwards lyrics, "Repent or be eternally damned", etc.
Scare tactics rarely work on know-it all teenagers, if anything, they backfire. Especially when you're telling them they have to give up their music. Although now, I can recognize that there are reasons to give up much of the secular music. Besides, there are many Christian artists out there now who fill in quite nicely for many of my preferred tastes.
"The Bible warns us of false teachers and churches which lead believers astray. The Bible indicates we are each to be wary lest we follow one of them."
I didn't know the Bible when I began the mormon missionary lessons and was ultimately converted. It wasn't until years later that I began to understand that I had been led astray.

Which comes back to the crux of my issue with this thread. If your goal is to lead Mormons back from the abyss it seems attacking them is a poor way to go about it. Not saying you were, just my issue with this thread.
That's why we try to love bomb them into our church; the ONLY one with authority from GOD.

p.s. but we are still waiting for more!
