Sorry. This doesn't pass the straight-face test, and impugns your own credibility.
ALL: Take a look for yourself @ post #79.
Mark17 says: “I have been a Protestant since 1970, and this is the first time I have EVER heard this" & Vladimir responds to this SAME subject thusly:
Really? I used google for about 20 seconds and found these:
Six links down, he mentions "Mormons." But again under the same umbrella of "these"...because he doesn't list Mormons last...the very next link is about Protestants as well.
If "Mormons" was meant to be distinct, why not list them last?
And why list them at all if the subject is only Protestants?
Yep, I believe both Kingdom Hall and Mormonism to be false religious cults as well. They are both pretty tough to reach. Ole Joe Smith really WAS a teller of tall tales, and Charles T Russell? He was another severely confused dude.
“If “Mormons” was meant to be distinct, why not list them last?”
They were. They were listed as the last non-Catholic reference. The only one after that was a convert to the Catholic faith. I started with 5 or so Protestant quotes (I could have listed many more of course). Then listed 1 Mormon quote (I could have listed hundreds for Mormons). And then I listed one convert’s comments as a final point. Also, I should point out I searched for them in that order: Protestant, pseudo-Christian/pseudo-Christian (i.e. Mormon) to show this is a sick trait Protestants share with pseudo-Christians and then topped it off with once convert’s discussion of his own experience to show how to overcome the stupidity that Protestants and pseudo-Christians show in this regard.
“Sorry. This doesn’t pass the straight-face test,”
Of course it passes the straight-face test and there’s no test in the first place. The evidence that some Protestants hold this view is undeniable so, of course, someone has to quibble about the fact that I included a quote from a Mormon source WHICH I ACTUALLY LABELED AS “MORMON”. Oh, the horrors!
“and impugns your own credibility.”
Not in the least. Since what I posted was irrefutable in proving my point, my credibility - logically - can’t suffer in the least. The very fact that someone would ignore all that was posted and focus on a LABELLED Mormon quote as if that were the issue is telling in itself. It tells us: he has no argument.
