I think we may accept it as a rule that whenever a persons religious conversation dwells chiefly, or even frequently, on the faults of other peoples religions, he is in a bad condition. Hmmmm, been down this road once before DU. Very simple question - do you sustain the words of your prophets and apostles?
Nothing less than a complete apostasy from the Christian religion would warrant the establishment of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
- Prophet Joseph Smith, Jr., History of the Church, v. 1, p. xl
"The Christian world, so-called, are heathens as to the knowledge of the salvation of God"
- Prophet Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, v. 8, p. 171
"Christianity...is a perfect pack of nonsense...the devil could not invent a better engine to spread his work than the Christianity of the nineteenth century."
- Prophet John Taylor, Journal of Discourses, v. 6, p. 167
Believers in the doctrines of modern Christendom will reap damnation to their souls.
- Apostle Bruce R. McConkie, Mormon Doctrine, see pp. 45-46
Perhaps it is a mormon who should be the LAST one to cite Lewis.

ROTFLOL!
So, I quote Lewis "C.S. Lewis (Collected Letters Vol. 3 p. 209): "I think we may accept it as a rule that whenever a persons religious conversation dwells chiefly, or even frequently, on the faults of other peoples religions, he is in a bad condition."
And you respond with an I'm rubber and you're glue argument? LOL!
Yes, I support the words of my Prophets and Apostles. They speak as God directs them to. To my knowledge, you have never claimed to be a prophet of God. so... you don't speak for God, you speak for yourself.
I have not attacked other people's religions. you will not find in the history of my posts an attack post on a thread attacking *any* religion. thus I am comfortable quoting C.S. Lewis in saying "I think we may accept it as a rule that whenever a persons religious conversation dwells chiefly, or even frequently, on the faults of other peoples religions, he is in a bad condition."
I think even a casual review of the posting habits of those posting on this thread will reveal all anyone will need to know about who qualifies as the target of this quotation by C.S. Lewis
