For those that suggest that “no one is harmed” by this practice, does it bother you at all that they use children as young as 12 to stand in and to be “dunked” for people they don’t even know?

As Mormons love to close their testimonies, “I know this to be true”.

Excellent point & one I'll add to the list of...
...catering to idolatry in setting up rival "saviors" to Jesus as Savior...
...a tremendous distraction from serving those who exist within arm's reach of REAL ministry...
...a waste of people's lives [$ isn't the only stewardship]
...provides a false sense of security [I can live anyway I want & then just meet the Mormon missionary after I die & accept the offer then]
...provokes needless controversy [point made twice by the apostle Paul about genealogies -- Titus 3:9; 1 Tim. 1:3-4]
...isn't faith-promoting [point made by Paul about genealogies -- 1 Tim. 1:3-4]
...and something even all seem to agree on with Paul (Titus 3:9) -- that it's useless.

Tell us, LadyDoc & DManA -- why do only choose to agree with the apostle Paul on one of his three points?
