So, if I had anything personally bad to say about their beliefs, I'll keep it quiet. All of those I've met (which is hardly expansive) were fine effing Americans, and a couple were Wolfe fans, and 99% of the time that's good enough for me.</font></p> </blockquote><br></div><div>Well, I'm glad to see that distinction made - certainly didn't want to imply that I thought the LDS reader deficient in some manner relating to their ability to contribute here. I only wanted to challenge the idea that they have some real esoteric knowledge of the ultimate nature of reality. It's my contention they don't, and I'm skeptical of other claims to 'secret knowledge'. I don't have a special condemnation of the Mormons except for the fact that my father's family were pushcart pioneers.</div><div><br></div><div>My yap is shut.</div><div><br></div><div>Steve</div><br></body></html>
