MORMONS THINK YOU ARE GOING TO HELL. THEY SAY YOU AREN'T A CHRISTIAN.
DOES THAT UPSET YOU?
I think this is the key post of this whole "debate." In this day and age, why should anyone's religious beliefs upset another person? Mormons expressly claim the right to worship according to the dictates of their conscience and they afford that same privilege to others.
Why would what I believe in my heart UPSET another person? It's like someone getting upset over my favorite color or what my favorite food is! If I believe in Jehovah or Vishnu or Allah, what does it matter to anyone? It's a personal belief.
Now, I accept that any religion will do some degree of proselyting because their adepts sincerely believe they are offering me something desireable. That's fine with me. I can investigate it and accept or reject it as I will. The problem comes from the intolerant bigots who feel that they do God service by burning the homes of Mormons (like they did in the 1840s in Missouri and Illinois) or restricting my freedoms to believe as I wish based on some Taliban-like sense of piety.
If a Baptist tells me I'll go to Hell for not believing his way, I just wish him a nice day and I press on. If he would do likewise, things would work out fine. Yet, they can't leave us Mormons alone. It's an obsession with them.
Because people act according to their beliefs, and ideas have consequences. If someone holds erroneous beliefs, it is charitable to correct them, in the appropriate time and place.
