To Christians (and others) from a Christian

You know you are correct. I read the Book of Mormon and it has some terrible historical inaccuracies. I will say this though...

Every Mormon I have ever met was a really wonderful individual. They are everything mainstream Christians should be and are not. They are down to earth good hearted people. I would rather hang with them than most of my fellow Christians.

Not necessarily true. I was rather fond of Mormons before I met my husband.

He was brought up in the mornin church, from his birth. When I met him he was claiming to be a "godless heathen" Turns out the mornin church had excommunicated him. And his parents devotion to the church superseded their devotion to him.

Now we have met other gay Mormons and they find his story very atypical, but it has trained my view.

If you ever have socialized with enough religious communities, I'm sure you've found it's a pretty common thread throughout different religions.

Be they Jewish, Muslim, atheist, Hindu or Christian. The majority of almost every community ultimately boils down to kind, generous and good-hearted individuals. Religion really doesn't seem to have an effect on goodwill and personal integrity.

100% agree

I would tend to agree that behavior is more dependent on genes and upbringing than on the particular Religion. Of course, Religion has a strong influence on upbringing and in many cases on genetic selection.

So, do you believe, that all human DNA comes from a male and female that were spontaneously created on earth about 6000 years ago? If you believe that, fine, I don't, and I have science to back my assertions.
