Gracious assistance via prevenient grace doesn't get Mormonism off the hook for being a system that requires one prove their own personal moral worthiness as a prerequisite for receiving eternal life.
Also, notice that one of my quotes was from the very last General Conference.
But hey, quoting Mormon leaders to Mormons can be pretty offensive :-)

Both belief systems are nonsensical, but at least Mormon belief is internally consistent. Yours make sense from the standpoint that if you're just going to make shit up, you might as well make it so you have zero responsibility and go to heaven automatically after arbitrarily being born in the right place at the right time. Good for you, dude.
