Why it’s unchristian to call Mormons “not Christian”

Raymond is the lawyer (bishop?).  I am the Baptist preacher (bishop).  We both live in the same city.  This could get real interesting.

I want to talk with Raymond about his charge, via this blog.  Let me ruminate on his words, prayerfully considering them.  I will be back, dealing with this post in my next HI4LDS post.  All are welcome to join in on the discussion.
