I like your screenname, “DB”!
Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.
Someday I hope you find out how foolish that notion is.
Until then you will only know the Gospel of Jesus Christ according to the Anti-Mormons and the like.

Please don't true to change the subject.
The point is that many an Anti-Mormon will state true facts in a way that the thought becomes a lie.
Ben
Once again kbk - an epic fail. Called poisoning the well and faced with your apparent inability to show otherwise further reinforces the fail.
By making an unsubstantiated statement you don't prove anything, except ignorance of the subject. Lets examine just one comparison -
E. Speaking of the sinful actions of some Latter-day Saints, this leader publicly called for a place to be designated where the blood of covenant-breakers could be shed. - Ans: Apostle Jeddiah Grant.
Now please kbk - what 'lie' is being transmitted here? Want to read it for yourself, go here. In fact Grant calls for the shedding of their blood no less than three times and infers that they should be killed for their iniquity.
So come on kbk, do your homework - just what is the 'thought' that becomes a 'lie' in this speech? You made the accusation - you need to pony up the proof.
You must know your history!
Rederick? Whoa....Ben, you be channeling someone...
Then it will be REaLLY easy for you to QUOTE one of them doing exactly what you claim.
Right??

Then why is he asking for whats behind door number two?
an Anti-Mormon will state true facts in a way that the thought becomes a lie.

WOW
I do know anti-Christians will state lies from the religion called mormonism and claim them to be “true facts”
Just a “milky” mormon
The meat is where the blood is found
Milk mormons arent told the meaty “truth” of mormonism
This one would obviously leave in a hurry if told
or would never have joined in the first place
Its not nice to find out one has been lied too
LOL
Ah, good so far.
... in a way that the thought becomes a lie.
Hmm...(So there's degrees of truth within the "rainbow" of truth...ranging from truly true to truly false...?)
(Interestin' def of "truth" there...but consistent with Mormonism)
BTW...tell us what you think of this Joseph Smithism:
To be damned: ...turn to a modern dictionary, and you will see "damnation" defined as "exclusion from divine mercy; condemnation to eternal punishment." In common usage the word has no other sense. http://www.what-the-hell-is-hell.com/HellEncyclopedia/WordDamn.htm
That site says that originally "damn" as an English word = "Loss, harm" & then came to mean "judgment upon."
Smith came along and took the English word "dam" and then said that "damnation" simply = "dammed up"...in other words, controlled for a period of time prior to release.
IOW, even though the Book of Mormon regularly talked about eternal and everlasting hell...he then in the early 1830s switched it to a temporary state (in the D&C).
So how about taking a true word ("dam") and superimposing it falsely upon another word ("damnation") -- and then claiming that adjectives "everlasting" doesn't mean "everlasting" after all?
(There ya go, all...that's the kind of verbal gymnastics' games that Mormons play)
