I knew I could count on you to come up with a tale about a sinful ex mormon, as a way to blame HER because you "couldn’t look her in the face. I didn’t know what to say to her."...How lawyerly of you, < snort >

The really strange thing is this...Christians don't feel personally affronted when someone chooses to follow a different path and leave their individual congregation. "As I said, people tend to avoid those who are hostile to everything that they hold sacred. I make no apologies for that."

What possible harm does someone who is "hostile" to mormonism as a belief do to you personally?

This "hostility" to those who leave is the mark of a cult.

“This “hostility” to those who leave is the mark of a cult.”

As usual, you take what is said and twist it 180 degrees to suit your purposes.

I said it is human to avoid those who are hostile to everything you hold sacred. This “hostility” is not “to” those who leave. The hostility I was talking about is “from” those who leave.

This brand of “hostility” — not being able to leave and just leave it alone, but singlemindedly trying to convince anyone who will listen that you are smarter than those who remain — is a sign of extreme narcissism or mental illness.
