Well, I'm convinced.

I have it on good authority that Jeff had been laying the ground work for missionaries to be allowed in China. In fact my BIL just got his call to mainland China, but it's hush, hush do don't tell anyone. Hastening the work indeed...

In this case "attacks" against Mormonism are almost 100% perverted falsehoods and outright lies, while defenses for the faith are almost 100% the full and actual truth. One seeks to destroy light and truth while pretending to be for light and truth, while the other actually IS light and truth.
Understand now?
Everyone understands you have quite the fantasy going on inside your head.

And it is idiocy like that, that qualifies faqs as the only forum user on my ignore list. His rants have 0 value.

Some of us, on the other hand, actually prefer a religion that includes some type of correlation with reality.

I saw it only because someone else quoted him. I have two people on my ignore list: ldsfaqs, and a recent arrival who likewise adds no value to the experience here.

This might have already been answered but Jeff currently lives and works in Shanghai. I knew him while I was working over there last year. He's a nice guy and we met up for lunch quite often. There are about 500 active members (expats) in Shanghai and Jeff is often the 'go-to' person when people have history questions. Perhaps he's expecting to get some other members ask about it.
