I counter your comment that grace is central to Mormon theology by quoting Mormon general authorities.
And what do you do? Instead of coming back with any counter argument, you launch into an ad hominen attack about some degree of "hate." (BTW, how do you determine that all critiques are hate-motivated when you can't see the inside of others' hearts? Do you use some magic urim & thummim rock or magic 8-ball or somethin?).
It's become way too typical of defenders of Mormonism. They can't answer the concerns raised. So they change the subject and launch their own attacks to brand others as "hateful" -- which if they were consistent in applying -- would = that their own comments, per their own standards, are themselves "hateful." [If it's "hateful" to critique; and you critique others; hence, your own personal standard condemns you...too many FREEPERS, especially a lot of non-Mormons defending Mormons, refute their own condemnations by engaging in the same behavior they condemn!]
Overall, your tactic isn't very nice.
Not very loving.
Doesn't stick to the issues.
Gets personal about persons they don't know.
Is a poor example for others to follow.
And leaves your lack of credibility obvious to all, thereby shooting your own respect-level in the foot, so to speak.
I suggest to you that if you're going to raise a theological claim; and somebody counters it with a counter-theological claim. Don't just come back with an ad hominen attack as a "hater."
It's not very becoming of the image the Lord originally had in mind for you.
This won’t be an agument, because I’m not going to argue back. Doing so helps no one.
