Which is why I kept asking her the question point blank. A question she dodged and did not answer directly.
I DO love Mormons, I love them enough to challenge their beliefs and make them think.
When I was trapped in Mormonism, my ‘christian’ friends who thought they could just be nice and kind and not challenge me and just ‘love me to the Lord’ I liked, but I did not respect their beliefs (I saw them as weak in their faith) and I certainly did not listen to them.
It was the people who made me mad, mad enough to prove them wrong, that got through to me and most other ex-Mormons who have become Christians say the same thing.
Only after they realize that Mormonism is a lie can we begin to love them to the Lord - an that is exactly what we do, even here on Freep.

And this is the true measure of our Love to Christ, being willing to stand in the gap and tell the truth, no matter how much it offends, no matter how much it hurts, no matter the name-calling, no matter the accusations, no matter the loss of friends or even family.
