One of my ex-Mormon friends - the real estate guy who left the Mormon Church over the shady NW Houston Temple deal - tells me that the LDS leadership is discouraging Mormons from posting on Christian discussion websites, or discussion boards in general.
He says the rationale is that it raises more questions than it ever answers, and it is "faith destroying" to those who participate. Particularly of interest was the premise that the "antis" (I always smile when I see that) are using official LDS websites to challenge Mormonism, and are causing otherwise faithful Mormons to 'dig deeper'.
Anybody heard anything like this?
Mind you, this is entirely anecdotal, but this particular Mormon was pretty well connected, and still stays in regular contact with people in that particular temple.
