This just in from GC. Apparently sharing "The Gospel" can be done in "normal and natural" ways.

I don't know about you but inviting a non-member to one of my "interviews" to be considered worthy to server a mission doesn't seem to "normal" to me.

Mormons can't conceive of the meaning of the word NORMAL.

To them having assigned friends is "normal."
To them being self-righteous is "normal."

Strange when they attempt to say what is "normal."

Yes, it's such a natural thing to share with your non mormon friends the Joe Smith story about disappearing gold plates, magical translating glasses. Jews becoming American Indians who write stories in Egyptian. Perfectly normal.

Why do mormons even call it the "gospel". they want people to join the mormon church. 99% of TSCC has NOTHING to do with any kind of "gospel"

So true! The "Gospel" is synonymous with sharing mormon "beliefs" which shift and spin with the times.

I maintain Mormonism is organzed Criminal activity.
"Organized crime or criminal organizations are transnational, national, or local groupings of highly centralized enterprises run by criminals for the purpose of engaging in illegal activity, most commonly for monetary profit."
Mobs alter tactics in pursuit of their goal "Prophets and Profits".
The Mafia has changed from street level crime to bank and business fraud. They dropped bootlegging when prohibition ended and stopped non-taxed cigarette smuggling when smoking lost popularity.

For mormons "bait and switch" is a warning.... "Don't 'bate too much or you will "switch""

"Cult leaders don't want you to know that you are being recruited into a cult and so they order their recruiters to dress, talk and act in a way that will put you at ease. One cult has even invented a phrase to describe this, they call it "being relatable".

Organized crime like a multilevel / affinity marketing scam.

Does the church still use something I think they used to call "the golden questions"? If you sat beside some stranger you were supposed to ask, "What do you know about Mormons?" Then there were 6 more things to say. This probably went the way of cursed black skin and symbolic slittings, but it was really big in the 60s and 70s.
