huh? I said that there is no need to attribute poor motives to any Mormon who wants to make friends, after Buffalo said Mormons will just pretend to be someone's friend in order to manipulate someone to do something. And Buffalo said 100% of the time it is the case that the Mormon has poor motives. At least that's what he responded to my comments with. Now you are saying he really meant 100% of the time Mormons are assigned to make friends with less-actives whenever a Mormon tries to make friends with him/her/them?
Love ya tons, Stem
I ain't nuttin'. don't get all worked up on account of me.
2 - Your insecurities about your beliefs are just plain sad
3 - Why would I "hate" you? I don't care about you enough to actually hate you.

No. I'm saying I believe that in a situation where a bishop visits an inactive and lo and behold a few days later a member of the ward wants to be friends with them. That it's not a coincidence 100% of the time.

That's not what I said at all, Stem.
Here, I'll make it easier for you. What I'm saying is, just after you've met with the Bishop about no longer believing the church is true, and right afterword some couple in the ward takes an unusual interest in you and takes it upon themselves to be your "friend," 100% of the time that's an assignment from the bishop. It isn't genuine. They're trying to manipulate you back into activity.

Now you're saying cops are full of poor motives too? Well I'll be.
When your pistol just clicks when you pull the trigger it's because you've run out of ammo. Just put the gun down and back away from the thread...

You had said they'd only pretend to be your friend 100% of the time. That's questioning motives. That's why I said what I did.

Apparently this just isn't sinking in. Don't worry about it.
