So here's the challenge, no? Either one must be a scholar of the caliber reaganaut claims to be to 'escape' the LDS Church or people can simply disagree on their faith claims, no?

No, that is a misrepresentation. One must desire truth more than desiring the church to be true. Basic principle of non-contradiction.

I mean what kind of God makes you have to get degrees in Biblical studies, Ancient History (Rome and Egypt), Culinary arts, Poli Sci, Medieval History and membership in the Archeological Institute of America to get saved?

None 10 - again, a dishonest representation of the facts. If you were honest, you would notice that the process of learning revealed that which mormonism would try to keep hidden from its rank and file. I emphasize dishonest on your part 10, because time and again reaganaut's testimony was one of trying to counter anti-arguements and her studies were towards that end initially.

Read just about any exmormon testimony and you will find a common thread that really 'learning' the true history of mormonism is one lightbulb moments for exmos.

I think you can do better than misrepresenting others beliefs and motivations to make what pitiful point you are attempting to make.

You will find contradiction in truth if you want to. That doesn’t make truth “wrong.” It makes the one reviewing the truth wrong or distorted. Imperfection is not the absence of truth. Infact, I am surprised that when I defend my faith how hostile others are. I just fight fire with fire. Porter Rockwell style. Some people are happy and fluffy. I love people with “brass knuckles.”
