That's why, for the most part, evangelicals don't take part in academic discussions of any moment.

It is only through acceptance of Christ's atoning sacrifice that we are corrected and saved ... not Aaron Shafs actions or intellect. |

Perhaps you're incapable. Perhaps you don't know Mormons well enough to engage them in a way that they will actually respond. Or are you just afraid? Aaron, you're future is bright in your evangelical world, your true target audience. You're building up a bevy of stories to tell on your worldwide "My Life Among the Godless Mormons" victory tour. Your people will eat this up and pay top dollar. The book royalties alone should keep you, your wife, and your child enjoying the blessings of good Christian service for years to come. Not too original, but it really works in your world. Was that vicious?

Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!! 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. |

Mormons aren't in a position to call anybody anti-intellectual. Tex's are more common than you think.
