Nice try, Rip...just ignore the 52,000 mormons on bikes and the senior couples using their retirement money to proselytize for mormonism, the PR campaigns....the infamous Flying Inmans of FR must be shut down in the interests of "F.A.I.R. play, right? You would still have the option of posting open threads and obeying forum rules.
There has already been a sign of FR mormons taking their proselytizing to FReepmail to get around the rules of the Religion Forum. Perhaps Jim needs to look into that also.
Jim, for some who are called to battle false religions, sites like FR may be the only way of getting the message out against the billions of dollars available to the mormon church.
or just eliminate Mormon discussions period.

The LDS would LOVE this. Rather than debate and defend their faith, they would much prefer us to just ‘go away’ and leave them alone.
I was Mormon for several years, and I remember feeling the same way “why can’t the antis just leave us alone?”
Why? Because those of us who have been freed from the shackles of Mormonsim and brought to a saving faith in Jesus Christ want nothing more than to see others freed the same way.
Rather than hide behind ‘caucus’, how about the LDS try to actually defend their beliefs.
And Grey is correct about the proselytizing moving to Freepmail. On a thread the other day, Grig offered to answer some difficult questions on Mormonism posted to him via Freepmail rather than on the open forum. Now, while I don’t object to the use of Freepmail, in cases like this it allows them to give their side without any chance of being countered. If they really thought Mormonism was true, why not put it out there for the whole world to see and judge?
Having been Mormon, I know how smooth the ‘pat answers’ are and how they twist their teachings and words to sound ‘Christian’.
