You know, forgive me for asking this, and definitely don't take it personally, because I'm honestly interested. How does one decide, from within a group of mormons, who is "a little off their rock". I mean, by what metrics, how would one go about criticizing the individual without condemning the group? How did that play out? Where was the wall between magic underwear and magic anything else, when you still believed? I suppose I don't really have the opportunity to grill a recently un-mormon-ed person very often, and of all of the religious traditions floating around in this country, that one is particularly fascinating.
