Book of Mormon

Elder Ballard of the LDS Church, talking to a group of graduates at BYU-Hawaii, encouraged us to use the media,  to teach of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I'd like all who read this post to know that this is a book that has changed my life. It is a book that can change anyone's life if read with an open heart and mind. It testifies of Jesus Christ, our atoning Savior. It was translated by Joseph Smith Jr., who was a prophet of God. I've read this book many times and I learn something new every time. I spent a year and a half in Brazil teaching from and about this book. I use this book to help raise my children in righteousness. "Abiding by it's principles will get you nearer to God than any other book." I know that this is true, for it has worked in my life. I'd encourage all who read this comment to also read this book.

Most religions are so old and complacent that they've given up on trying to divide the world into sections to convert every last person alive.  Catholicism used to think that way and it got over it.  Mormonism is still too young to realize it should stop trying, and it keeps trying to spread at full force and hope enough people can be turned by treating people like the 1% success rate of a telemarketer, and hoping that 1% will be greater by multiplying the number of telemarketers.  That would be an analogy, but many are telemarketers and salesmen if they aren't slaves to MLM.  They find a comfortable dogma to follow and leave their rational minds on autopilot.
