you are a relative newcomer to the Mormon bashing threads.

You said that it was always the same people...

And, apparently, "Mormon bashing" = the posting of historical fact.

And...Why is it "Mormon bashing" to ask questions relative to Mormon doctrine and to point out apparent contradictions in Mormon belief?

Quite often, I am asked difficult questions in regard to my Christian faith and I do not respond to the questioners with allegations of Christian-bashing. I do my best to give a Biblical response and a reason for my hope.

Mormons claim to have the truth, and that all other churches are corrupt, and yet when pressed on their claims of truth, they allege abuse or outright refuse to answer.

The possession of truth affords a reasonable and compelling response...the lack of truth results in accusations and non-response, which creates a credibility gap.

So...c'mon...lets reason together.

Unlike the other Mormon's on this thread, are you willing, and/or able, to answer a few direct questions?

1. What is salvation and how does a non-Mormon obtain it?

2. Does polygamous marriage, with teenage girls, constitute child abuse?

3. Did Joseph Smith commit child abuse in his polygamous marriages with teenage girls?

ANSWER: (silence)

Apparently...not.
