Obviously the world doesn't turn on your conclusions about what is real and what isn't.

Show me polling showing that 30% of Utahns will never vote for an Evangelical and that logic won't be that dumb. Show me the countless Mormon websites and "ministries" dedicated specifically to taking down Evangelical belief and that logic won't be that dumb. Show me Mormons that dog Evangelical meetings and get-togethers nationwide and that logic won'd be that dumb.
It had an effect. You've already admitted it. The debate is how much.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.
