What's great about Mormonism is that Shaf's butt can still end up in the celestial kingdom, while in his view, all of our butts are going straight to hell. In my opinion, this is where the Christianity of Mormonism wins the day.
This is a good point. I used to think that if you had to choose, you ought to for Mormon, since living Mormonism you'll be exalted if Mormonism is true and also make it to heaven if Christians are right, since a subset of Mormonism is to accept and follow Christ which is the Christian salvation. But actually you're right. Christians condemn Mormons and say we're going to hell since we don't accept the true Jesus, and Mormons allow for Christians to repent and accept true gospel of Christ in hereafter. So I guess if you want to hedge, you ought to hook up with AShaf.
