They SHOULD just go on with their merry lives believing that their saved, but instead they attack our beliefs... not out of Christian love to save our souls, but to prove us wrong and prove themselves right. I find this most odd, perhaps pride... fear, I know not. Thoughts? Especially from those of you who have visted such sites recently. Thanks.

I haven't visited such sites, but will give you my two cents worth anyway.... I am LDS and have talked to some "Anti" or "Ex-Mo's" myself, and a couple of them have told me that they DO want to save my soul. They are upset with the fact that I believe something so horrible that I will be sent to eternal damnation. And that it is THEIR responsibility to try to keep me from losing my soul. Pride? I don't think so...fear? for some reason they are convinced that I am not going to pass judgement and burn in hell for being LDS and saying that I have Jesus Christ as my savior. I guess that they figure they will be held responsibile if they don't try to convince me to leave the church and follow the "right path" to heaven. I do believe that it is out of pure love of others to "try" to turn me around to "see the light". Of course it could all be a bunch of horse pucky, and there might be another reason why they said the things they did....but it felt like honest concern for my spiritual well being.

As many of you know by now, I consider myself an LDS apologist.* I visit various "Christian" websites with the objective of answering their questions and clarifying the incredible lies and mistruths proffered regarding our beliefs.* In all my time doing this, I am still shocked at the bitterness of true antimormons.* And I find that the focus of their bitterness lies in the fact that they perceive us as excluding them from exaltation unless they conform to our beliefs.* The interesting point here is that if they don't really believe our beliefs, why do they care what we teach?* They SHOULD just go on with their merry lives believing that their saved, but instead they attack our beliefs... not out of Christian love to save our souls, but to prove us wrong and prove themselves right.* I find this most odd, perhaps pride... fear, I know not.* Thoughts?* Especially from those of you who have visted such sites recently.* Thanks.

Have you gone here:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-religion/browse
PayNoAttentionManBehindCurtain, narses and Romulus would benefit from your witness.  [/b][/quote]
What's Freerepublic? Is it an antimormon site?

Yep, it's a natural man enclave over there.
There are many aggressive Calvinists over there.

Aggressive Calvinist? What's that?
Doesn't sound like a healthy environment for a good LDS.

Actually Free Republic is quite friendly to the LDS. Holders of the LDS faith can say what ever they want. They keep a pretty tight rein on something that is called the GRPL (Calvinists)

If the GRPL are "aggressive Calvinists", maybe they should have a tight rein on them.
And, if that's the case, maybe a bigger LDS precense will be a good thing.

There are way to many natural wo/men over there. I am busy right now or I would wander over there and join instead of just lurking
I think it is the calling of everyone on this enlightened board to sign up and spread the wisdom of LDS.
Don't worry. From what I have read they are keeping all Calvinists in check and we can take over!
