Perhaps they are the Church of the Devil. sorta tic.
Naturally I love Catholics and have had very good Adventist friends. We've openly discussed religion. We've had very good Evangie friends; we just have never talked religion and don't expect we ever will. I take that back; we can talk with my SiL but she is very brusk in telling us where she thinks we are wrong. Very black and white. She once dismissed the whole nation of Saudi Arabia as godless.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.
