Grandpa's Situation: You all know what's happening, but I want this recorded just to have the history. Grandpa broke his hip today.

" JW's- "We preach the gospel" Craig- "Um... that still isn't original. Tell me why I should listen to you over anyone else" JW's- "Umm... I don't know..." Craig- "Well I'll tell you what the Mormon's compelling doctrine is that makes us different from everyone: We have ...
