My former mother-in-law was shot at in a Muslim country for her Christian faith.

(And I've been generically -- but literally -- shot at in this country)

...Are you saying that none of us can multi-task, anymore, in our lives?...that I/we should either only focus on anonymous drive-byers to the exclusion of all else -- or even make them some high priority in our lives???

On this Memorial weekend of all weekends, are you claiming that veterans who were shot at in Korea or 'Nam should only focus upon Asian threats in the world?

Ludicrous reasoning.

There are more threats in this world than physical ones.

We ALL have an appointment with physical death; it's going to come. Those who are a threat to the body merely have the possibility to cut it short...and even then God is constantly intervening behind the scenes.

As for eternal death, that's where more -- not less intervention is needed!

I am saying that your position - that Mormonism is a graver threat to us than Islamists - is utterly ludicrous. Do you think Copts in Egypt would be afraid to move to Salt Lake City if given the opportunity to escape persecution or death? Religious freedom is a fundamental foundation of the Constitution, and this site is first and foremost about the Constitution. Islamism is a threat to religious freedom (and the Constitution) by its very nature. Mormonism is not.

Please show me a Mormon, over the last fifty years, threatening a Christian that they have to convert to Mormonism or die. Until then, you are dabbling in the absurd.
