This thread, and your signature for that matter, is all a bunch of stuff which claims that what you believe in is correct. You're trying to prove it to the rest of us folks that don't necessarily believe the same thing as you.
If you want to have a debate you're going to need to do it with a topic other than religion because there are no stipulated truths when comparing different beliefs. Everyone has a set of things that they believe in which don't necessarily jive with whatever anyone else believes in.
With social issues, moral issues, whatever, you can at least make a logical arguent or toss in a couple facts to support your case. All this "evidence" you've been posting lately is neither of those things, unless it is being read by someone who shares the same belief system as you do.

as for my sig, its to help the arrogance on the board get past the immature, uninformed, anti-mormon state of mind they are in... i dont care if they arent mormon, but being anti-mormon is just silly
