Alternative Missionary Position Approach

I just ran across an ad for the First Baptist Church in the new Salt Lake City Weekly:
First Baptist Church
All of the good stuff*
None of the bad**
* Love, faith, acceptance, support, music, coffee, casseroles.
** Guilt, fear, boxes, dogma, jello with vegetables in it.
Would something like this work for us LDS? What would we put down under our asterisks?

I don't know what would work for LDS, but jello with vegetables should always be associated with the negative asterisks.

I've always said we are the only Church whose doctrine the Bible doesn't conflict with.

The title of your thread is misleading.

Makes you wonder why Joseph Smith felt the need to correct it...

Why are boxes bad? What are we supposed to put our stuff in, a sack?
Please explain.
Also, Baptists claim to be dogma-free? Whatever!

Thanks, I was also wondering about that one.

I was bending over as I initially read the ad. Anyway, it does have to do with membership recruitment in a manner other than sending out missionaries. It never hurts to get on top of these things.
