Are people at this forum too lazy to check replies on their own?

No, we're not too lazy to check replies on our own but they have to show up as replies when you hit the *View Replies* button and that won't happen unless you include their name in the *To:* section of the post. If you are going to address someone's responses and expect them to know about it, YOU are the one responsible to make sure they know. If you think that people have enough time to check over every post on every thread that they posted a response to, then you have another thing coming, cause it isn't happening; it's just not practical. I pinged colorcountry out of courtesy because he brought this to my attention.

I don't expect anybody to read what I have written. I do understand that some may not have time to see every single reply to their post. I just think it's irresponsible for those, including you, who have posted attacks against the LDS Church on a thread talking about someone's murder to do it without really anything concrete to back it up except personal opinion, contextually wrong information, or anti-Mormon sources.

I have not made any personal attacks. In fact, I made sure anyone who reads my first post would know exactly what statements I was countering. So, I was actually being courteous to all of you by only responding to your statements and staying away from personal attacks. From the tone of some the posts since then, you "negative Mormon posters" can't seem to keep from scraping the personal attack line.

Again, I was defending someone who now cannot defend himself.

On a different note, when the creep who did this is convicted of first-degree murder, I think he should be sent to prison without parole (I am pretty sure Virginia has the death penalty.) I would bet that when the other inmates find out he killed a Mormon missionary, he will get the normal treatment that rapists and child molesters get in prison.
