Comments on "A Friendly Discussion"

            “...As I was reading the manuscript my wife frequently turned to me and said, ‘How come I have never heard of this?’... My favorite [chapter] is still the women in the Book of Mormon."

                                                 ––  Simon Southerton

                                                      Author of Losing a Lost  Tribe

            “This is a fabulous book! It unfolds as a conversation between a recently-returning missionary and a knowledgeable ‘investigator’ of the church... It is the kind of book which can be read in one sitting (over the course of just a few hours) or it can be digested on a chapter-by-chapter basis.”

                                                –– Jarom Smith

                                                     Director, Exmormon Foundation

            “A Friendly Discussion will be become, in my opinion, one of the standard ‘must-haves’ for those accumulating information about Mormonism... If you have any interest in the ‘meat’ of Mormonism, as a member already, or someone who has a family member or friend contemplating joining the Mormon church, this book will provide information and material most of the general public does not know about this religion.  I highly recommend it.”

            “... methodically looks at various claims, evaluates the evidence, and advances logically consistent conclusions regarding the validity of Mormon assertions... For those who're new to Mormonism  this is an excellent book for summarizing some of the most damaging arguments in opposition to LDS claims. I highly recommend it“

                                                –– Duwayne Anderson

                                                     Author of Farewell to Eden

            “I was very impressed not only with how well written and researched it was...  I believe that this work will be of great value to Christians in understanding many of the vulnerabilities of Mormonism.”

                                                –– Charles Larson 

                                                     Author, By His Own Hand Upon Papyrus

            “...a very readable book in an interesting conversational format, one that will appeal and be especially interesting and informative for those who know very little about the Mormon faith.”

                                             –– Grant Palmer 

                                                  Author of An Insider’s View of Mormonism

                “...well-written, easy flowing, well-informed and cleverly presented... l really  like the chapter on women in the Book of Mormon.  The contrast with the Bible is quite compelling...I really enjoyed the book. I think it is accessible and well done.”

                                                –– Thomas W. Murphy

                                                     Chair, Department of Anthropology

                                                 –– Arza Evans

                                                      Author of The Keystone of Mormonism 

            “...thought-provoking, captivating, realistic dialogue between two fair-minded people of opposing convictions.”

                                                –– Brad Morin

                                                     Co-author of Suddenly Strangers

             “Anyone who is going to be discussing Mormonism with a Mormon has  here a ready-made script for a discussion that should give any Mormon second  thoughts about his religion...well-researched, well-reasoned and easy-to-read."
