gd2shoe's Journal: troll

I just got in an argument with a troll. Shouldn't have done that.

To feed the trolls or not to feed the Trolls

Frankly I am just as sick and tired of this anti-mormon stuff as I can be. Why is okay to trash Mormons but not, Catholics, Jews, African-Americans, or the any other groups?
Don't these people know that hate is hate and they are just as bad as the Klan or neo-nazis?
Of course the morons at SCO are not helping any. I say let him have it. Bash away. Good job

It's worse.

It's worse than that. It took me a bit of dialog to find out, but he used to be a member of the Church. That means that several of the things he said were bald faced lies. This is about the point that I realized that focusing on actual doctrine, history, and current culture weren't going to help him. He can be helped, but he needs to want to learn again first (and may need someone smarter than myself). I'm more than happy to find out the big concerns that people have. It helps me understand them bett

It can be very sad. Often it only takes only on bad member to drive out many other. You have to wonder if some person was, racist, hateful, judgemental, or a hypnocrite and broke his trust and then his faith. You can not teach them any different until the are willing to trust in the spirt again
