JLHPROF Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 6 hours ago, changed said: So becoming an atheist might be part of the journey? "No one should be accused of lacking faith because they have questions" - perhaps is better stated as "No one should be eternally condemned in anyone's eyes for lacking faith because they have questions"... Everyone has their own path to travel. As I prepare to bury my Father in two days I am keenly aware of this. I fully accept that passing through atheism may be part of someone's journey through life. But I have no reason to consider it a legitimate destination option.

Tacenda Posted November 3, 2018 Posted November 3, 2018 My aunt posted this on FB. She's pretty much the most conservative and far right person. In fact she'd probably disown me if she knew my political views. But this post on FB, I absolutely can't stomach. The article makes it sound like anyone with faith issues is of the devil. Makes me heartsick that my aunt liked this so much, along with several in their comments. It just strikes me wrong, but maybe others don't view it that way. https://mylifebygogogoff.com/2017/03/8-anti-mormon-tactics-that-satan-uses-to-attack-the-latter-day-saints.html?fbclid=IwAR3gl6mHaVp7-VFbi2_P815JBNPvabWnmpotm3cuIre4tITYY6GeziAjbps

How is it not a good thing to be made more aware that such fallacies can be used to manipulate people?
