I wasn't going to reply, but I'll do so anyway because yet again, you completely ignored my contention that your approach will not work in swaying Mormons to your cause. If you are correct in your belief that all Mormons are hellbound, then you need to convert as many as you can. I'm telling you again, your ham-handed approach will be completely ineffective.

You claim I am rude. Maybe I am. Note, however, two indisputable facts. When I first mentioned the Baptist faith in post #8, I mentioned only positive things about it, and I limned more positive aspects in the last part of post #65. I said I admire the Baptist faith (I do). I just couldn't disagree more with your methods. While I began with positive things to say about Baptists, you began with nothing but negative things to say about Mormonism. I haven't read a single positive thing in any of your postings. That's a fact with no wiggle room. Rude is as rude does. I challenge you to type out what you admire about Mormons and the LDS faith; it's your turn. (You probably won't, though, which will prove my point.)

Don't take my word for it, though. Use your scorched-earth policy to save our poor, withering souls, and I wish you the best of luck. You're certainly going to need it.

I'm a little curious why you would be interested in telling me how to persuade more Mormons. I mean, according to your religion you're giving me advice on how to win souls to perdition. Surely not a worthwhile activity, even if your advice were entirely on the mark.

I challenge you to type out what you admire about Mormons and the LDS faith; it's your turn.

Off the top of my head, there's the family values stuff (which can also be said of Jews, Confucians, etc.). And storing up lots of food is genuinely good advice.

Now, for Watson: I'm curious why you think Mormonism can be considered a "branch" of Christianity equal to Protestantism, Catholicism, and Orthodoxy. That seems analogous to a Mahdist promoting Mahdism to equality with Sunni and Shi'a Islam. The JWs would seem to have as good a claim to being a form of Christianity as Mormonism. However, I can't examine what you say in those sections because the book you linked appears to be the only part of your site other than the homepage which will display on my computer, possibly because I'm on a Mac.

More to follow.
