Ray does not count, he obviously does not believe it enough to be a member again.
Regardless of what you believe, know, or how you feel, please answer this question:
If the church was not true, would you want to know?
Yes or no and a brief explanation.
Additionally, if YES, how would you react to the information?
Tal Bachman asked me this same hypothetical question several months ago on this board, and I gave him an honest answer (similar to what abestosman has said), which he, over the course of the subsequent discussion, found less than satisfactory.
From what I have read of this thread, it appears that the same thing has happened with PP regarding believing members who have responded to his query.
This caused me to wonder what PP had hoped to accomplish by asking the question? What response would he find satisfactory and helpful? Was he thinking soliptically, like Tal, that his question would invaribly lead reasonably minded people to the same conclusion about the Church he has reached?
Perhaps PP can answer this for us.
