I never said that all you have to do is accept truth after death and our teachings don't coincide with this fabrication either. You have been exposed to the truth so whether you accept it after death or not you will still be judged for the decisions you made in life. It is not a free ride.

And once again you seem to be taken in by the half truths of the anti-mormons MOST changes were in grammar spelling and separation but you refuse to research the old BOM and compare it to the current BOM so that makes your arguments unfounded. If there are so many changes in meaning post them.

These sights back up what they say with half fact and try to pass it off as whole for instance how many anti-LDS sights say Joseph Smith was arrested for this or that or the other thing millions the fact is Joseph Smith was arrested for many trumped up charges yet try to find how many actually stuck through the court trial.

You seem to revel in making wild unfounded accusations like I said I do not bother with the Anti-mormon websites so if you want to bring up proof from one then post it because I will not follow links to these sights.

Like I said in my last post, this is going around in circles and its getting slightly frustrating because I feel I have made my point, and you clearly dont feel that I have.

I think i've posted sufficient fact to back up my viewpoint. I think you have made your point in your own way as well.

Im just not going to argue this anymore because we are going around in circles.

Besides I dont know you, but your probably a decent guy and the last thing I want to do is to have this go on for so long that it starts some sort of pointless argument.

So im going to just agree to disagree with you on this and call it good. Living in Utah I have had this debate a million times and I can honestly say that ive never convinced a Mormon that I was right, and not one of them has ever been able to prove or counter act any of my points. So in the end nobodies mind gets changed and it is kind of a waste of time lol.

Anyways, I look forward to discussing other topics with you.

Well I would like to know what these points are because for the majority of what I am seeing it is mostly accusation or assertions that you think you can disprove Mormanism. Allow me to become a better debator and show me the points you made and how I innadequately counteracted them.

You never disproved any of the points I made. The points I made (and others) are all spread out throughout this thread.

You used the book of Mormon to make your points. You feel that is a viable source to prove your points...I happen to disagree strongly.

So again its a waste of time to keep going around in circles with this. Im clearly not as passionate about this topic as you are and just quite simply dont care enough to keep going.

circumnavigating the bush are we? I said I have not seen any points made by you or any time in our debates in which I have used anything but the history of the BOM unless it was a doctrinal issue.

You religion is a fictional one. Give it up, you are destined to be found lacking when the end comes. Quit trying to convert people to a failed way of life.

How is it fictional? I am not trying to convert anyone I am trying to see the flawed arguments against the book of mormon by people who don't seem to have a mind of their own as they just cut and paste questions from anti-mormon websites and then say that answers aren't valid without saying why and resorting to childish insults. If this is the way one proves a religion wrong then there truly is no correct way to prove it right.

I cut and paste those things because they shared my viewpoints and I was trying to list some actual PROOF to back up my own beliefs. Thats generally how you prove points is to state your opinion and then back it up with another source.

And I dont know if your talking about me, but I dont recall EVER throwing out a "childish insult" at you. We simply disagreed and I called your religion phony and backed up my statements with some links.

Maybe you weren't talking about me though. Im taking it that way because I have been the one debating this with you lately.
