This is just a guess, but I think we see the same people mugging them as we see (in our opinion, insert disclaimer here, etc.) mugging us.

So it's easier for us to see the uselessness and nastiness of the mugging and to feel empathy for the muggees.

Really? I just don't see that much cross-over. I know one ex-catholic who posts against Mormonism and a couple of evangelicals, but I know several Catholics who are on our ping list against Mormonism.

I think if you looked closely at those of us who post against Mormonism, you would see that many if not most of us view Catholics as our brothers and sisters. Obviously we don't worship in the same way, but we definitely believe in the same God of the Trinity, who suffered, bled and died to atone for our sins.
