But I specifically mentioned some of those Christian present were themselves ashamed of Maurice's actions.<br /><br />That being said, there is a real difference between approaches. Anti-Mormons are, in my opinion, mostly groups of people who are feeling threatened because the Mormons reject their beliefs. They also typically rationalize their double-standards about viewing religious circumstances. I grant that is a generalization, but it is based on meeting hundreds of anti-Mormons.<br /><br />As for being threatened by "Good" Mormons, I don't doubt it. But I get insulted and verbally attacked weekly. I have found there are a lot more "Christians" willing to insult the things holy to Mormons. It is a pretty broad double standard.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03604900070308099497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999280.post-24433005289921785102009-06-19T15:32:04.732-07:002009-06-19T15:32:04.732-07:00Woah, these comments don't try to perpetuate s...Woah, these comments don't try to perpetuate stereotypes do they?<br /><br />My life and my family’s lives have been threatened by ‘good’ active Latter-day Saints! Shawn has been threatened. People have been killed by ‘good’ active Latter-day Saints. <br /><br />So should I stereotype all Mormons as being violent brainwashed cultists? Because it’s typical of True Believing Mormons? By these poster’s logic, I should be able to.<br /><br />Yeah, that kid was out of line. Yet, what is the point of trying to stereotype people that have left the church as angry and tyrannical? Seems to me that you have utilize logical fallacies to come to grips with people leaving the church for legitimate reasons.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999280.post-12981762252006241582009-06-17T04:37:49.928-07:002009-06-17T04:37:49.928-07:00Interesting, but typical, of true anti-Mormons I&#...Interesting, but typical, of true anti-Mormons I've had discussions with over the years. To me, they act as if my continued faithfulness to the church is somehow a threat to their own personal salvation. Thus the anger displayed on their part. When I've voiced my observation about that to them, that's when they really seem to get wound up.

I admire your courage in battling anti-mormon tyranny head on.Shawn's show will be going soon from what I hear. <br /><br />Man, I wish I knew that younger kid. I would love to have a long, albeit peaceful on my part, talk with him. Maybe the spirit of a convert can show him something. Just some thoughts.Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03960519151863517265noreply@blogger.com
