In my mind, the fence sitter is neutral, and on either side is a spectrum ranging from barely devoted to completely devoted.
I would even go so far as to say it is impossible for anyone to ever be a "fence sitter." Matthew 12:30 tells us "He that is not with me is against me..." Even in not making a choice, you have still made a choice. It is the Lord's side with whatever degree of devotion, or satan's.

Hmm...this is where I would say ASK GOD for youself. Perhaps a visitation of what was prior to our exit for here would be a neat trip?
Look, I cannot convince but say what I honestly believe. I am a literalist and at times, it must ache our FATHER's heart in some matters. This is a given. We believe what we are given until it is replaced those falsity or fables.
I will also add, before our departure from the gates of spirit world, we had those who do object to our presence then and in this mortality, still will not like us now. Given point? Look at Christ mortal life...and then look at Joseph Smith mortal life.
Last, what was the character of Cain then and now?
