I can see why they'd be upset

In-your-face gospel riles town

People who are ex-anything often have very definite opinions about what they are 'ex' of and sometimes those opinions are very valid and sometimes they're not and most often it's a bit of both. The world is never black-and-white.

I am confused. I thought Mormons were Christians.

I think you'd find a lot of people (mostly Christians) who would disagree. I dunno. I just try to make peace with everyone. :)

ehhhh....

I remember back in the days of yore and our old BBS, that someone of the evangelical ilk pronounced our mutual friend, the Urban Monk, otherwise known as Dunmoose, a Babylonian Pagan because he was Catholic.

Oh, yes. Anyone not of one's own religious persuasion belongs to a cult, or is pagan or something, it seems. It appears to be the way most people make themselves comfortable - 'if you don't agree with me you're BAD!'

Very sad.
