Well said, Mr. Carter. Outstanding.

The Mormons I know don't act like Chris.

Agreed. One should not attribute characteristics of one person to the group
to which that person belongs (generally). Mormon teachings place high
emphasis on righteous conduct (charity, justice, loving kindness, and so
on). In my view, Mormonism is a good and holy road to God.

Stormin Mormon is an abberation and a stain on his faith. By tying his
actions so publically to his faith on this group, he runs the risk of
causing the less discerning to attribute (erroneously) his disgusting
behavior to the teachings of a group he loves.

That these easily-influenced are wrong doesn't diminish the fact that some
harm befalls the Mormon Church in general.

Truly regrettable. And could have been avoided.
