I'm unfamiliar with that reference. As the only LDS member in a school of 700 in the heart of the Bible belt (Chattanooga, TN), I got to experience plenty of truly anti-Mormon abuse.

In a US Supreme Court, Potter Stewart wrote a snippet he later regretted writing when trying to describe pornography, stating, "I know it when I see it." Fortunately, the Supreme Court did not rely upon that standard.

Are you referring to his standard for obscenity? The one that basically says, "I can't define it, but when I see it I know it."?

If you visit with a JW missionary, they will attack your beliefs and tell you why they are wrong. If you talk to a Mormon missionary, they will tell you about JS and the BoM and ask you to pray about it. Big difference. |

I may not have been a very good missionary overall, but I did manage to successfully do that much. |

As Mike has pointed out, if you articulate a forward position advocating belief in something, that is advocacy. If advocate a negative position, informing in what not to believe, I don't find that person useful, but just destructive.
