Blaine: Perry's
response below is another example of what I have said to Kevin: It is the
pot calling the kettle black. Why are you on TT, Perry? The name of
this e-group seems to be ignored by most of you as we search for the
truth. I have made a number of posts putting Mormonism in a positive
light, and so far have received NO responses to any of them. But if fault
can either be found or manufactured against Mormons or Mormonism, it
is grabbed on to and blown out of proportion. Your below
comments fit the "blown out of proportion" variety, it seems to me.
Perhaps before condemning Dave for a simple contextual error, you should have
asked him if that is what he really meant. Your too-quick response shows
yourself as having a too-strong desire to seek occasion against
DaveH. Just remember, if you are always trying to dig a pit for your
neighbor, perhaps eventually you are the one who will fall into the pit.
