Every day 52,000 mormons go door-to-door all over the world and tell folks that mormonism is the ONLY true church and whatever Christian faith these people have is false. I suppose this is to be ignored, right?
"Make the posters the issue, not the issues."
As of December 31, 2009, there were 51,736 LDS missionaries serving in 344 church missions throughout the world. Their work, often in cooperation with local members, resulted in 280,106 convert baptisms in 2009.[12] Author David Stewart points out that the number of convert baptisms per missionary per year has fallen from a high of 8.03 in 1989 to just 4.67 in 2005.[13] He argues that the number of converts would increase if Mormon missionaries made greater efforts in meeting new people; he points out that the average companionship spends only four or five hours per week attempting to meet new people.[13]
How terrible it is that a handful of Christians post a handful of threads per week on FreeRepublic to counter the proselytizing efforts of the missionaries and public relations campaign of the mormon church. Don't you just feel SO sorry that the poor, persecuted mormons aren't able to have their message heard?
“How terrible it is that a handful of Christians post a handful of threads per week on FreeRepublic to counter the proselytizing efforts of the missionaries and public relations campaign of the mormon church.”
Your proselytizing should be FOR Jesus Christ not AGAINST Mormons, Catholics, Jews, et. al.

Yes I have; that’s what caused me to respond.

So do Jehovah’s Witnesses! Never had a Mormon tell me that my faith is false. Thinking and saying are two different things. I even dated one whose father was a deacon while I was in college. Nothing like that ever happened. Your charge is similar to those that accuse the Tea Party of being racist because one rally attendee held up an untoward sign. Specific hatred of Mormons is NOT normal.
