We just think it's all rather odd.Christine Macdonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02139820957031345995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4157023399880137603.post-89664929585017382172010-02-24T23:11:58.960-08:002010-02-24T23:11:58.960-08:00I have once opened the door to some religious folk...I have once opened the door to some religious folk just for a conversation.

We had some Mormon volunteers at the library where I worked, and we had to tell them to not come back because instead of shelving the books where they belonged they would just dump a bunch of them at the end of a row or something. Maybe they were just bad seeds, I don't know. But we had a lot of non-Mormon volunteers who didn't shirk their duties.Alissa Grossohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16701189791875707920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4157023399880137603.post-90095754506251463862010-02-24T12:32:33.774-08:002010-02-24T12:32:33.774-08:00I'm an open-minded individual, and I have let ...I'm an open-minded individual, and I have let these two types into my home because I wanted to learn more. I wanted to know what drives these well-dressed elders (Mormons on bikes) to ride a bike in the nasty Texas heat in the middle of summer. It had to be something powerful. <br /><br />I studied their books, and everything, but was still unconvinced that what they preached was true.<br /><br />The Bible says beware of false prophets, and this is what came to mind when I spent time with these two groups. So, after years of them trying to convinced me to join their cults, I said, "no thank you."<br /><br />I gave them a chance...which is way more than what most people do.Lothirielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03746888926301065265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4157023399880137603.post-61091696877000517442010-02-24T11:33:50.494-08:002010-02-24T11:33:50.494-08:00I think the Mormons should sell cookie along with ...I think the Mormons should sell cookie along with their pitch.
