You're ignoring the fact that coffee is obviously a Product of The FALL. It's trying not to be appealing. It has adapted to be bitter and vile. You're not supposed to be drinking it!
The fact that you do shows that you've also been affected by sin and depravity...

"to the point"?!? That's way off topic. Just because he has the strength of his convictions and you choose not to respect them... ;^)
ReplyDeleteAnd, the fact that Mormons may do something or other could just as easily be seen as a part of the truth that shields the lie.
