And the question of how we, failable as we are, get any kind of a handle at all on the nature of God's Judgement, does not seem to me as easily resolved as some of these posts seem to assume.

I'm a "Pray for mercy, not for justice" type from the get-go, but the tone of this, honestly, upsets me. I think a lot of people are going to be surprised, at judgement.

I don't think I could only "hope" and keep quiet. Yes, what man and what God think on "who" is a christian may differ, but certainly, for all intents and purposes of men, Mormons simply do not go into the "christian" category...there are probably some "christian" sects that are radical, and don't deserve the title as much as Mormons do etc...and I don't know how to resolve that.
