It probably won’t comfort skeptical evangelicals and Catholics to know that Mormons think that while other Christians merely “have a portion of the truth, what God revealed to Joseph Smith is the fullness of the truth,” as Jackson says

I'm Catholic, and I wouldn't expect it to be any other way. That's why they are Mormons. The only alternatives to believing your faith is complete are relativism (truth is different from one person to another), nihilism (there is no central turth to wrap your life around, or that it is unknowable or remains unrevealed), modernism (truth is fluid and subject to constant change, or alternatively, there are multiple truths, all equally valid).

What about all of the poor saps who died before Joey Smith was born, what about them?
