Reply #48: It's not people, it's THE CHURCH(tm)

[comtec]

people, in general are rational and can be convinced or talked to about rational things.

The CHURCH is an institution, a megacorp. Have you ever tried to deal with a mega corp?

The people at the top of the CHURCH, are usually power hungry, a-moral people who like lording over others.

The CHURCH (and it's odd because we actually agree) is the one with power, money and influence. the CHURCH feeds off it's parishioners and often causes harm.

many people IN a church are only there out of inertia, they just have always gone. Others are just as horrible as the doctrine tells them to be.

I know lots of nice mormons. sadly they are the minority.
