"I Won't Let Them Take Away My Faith"

Anyone hearing this from their TBM friends/family? Seems like the proactive version of "doubt your doubts before you doubt your faith."

Is this a new Mormon Ad?

...TBM sister refuses to acknowledge anything remotely resembling reality. I don't think anything at our disposal here can shake the faith of a true believer. A trip to the Guthrie Masonic Temple did, however, did give her a few unaswered questions. Especially when I identified the books, images and vows, as well as the architectural similarites regarding Masonry and the Salt Lake Temple...still to no avail.

Reality has never been the strong point of this religion

Nobody wants to (or can) "take away" somebody's faith.

There are those of us who would like those with faith in the mormon church to closely examine it, and challenge its value...but that's not the same thing.

Yes, I've heard that from some TBMs. I just roll my eyes.

Peter Boghossian. He indeed would like to take away people's faith, and I applaud him for it.

Too bad he *can't.*
Influence, cajole, prod, motivate...sure.
Take away their faith? Nobody can do that.
