  • Bob McCue, "The Downside of Mormonism's 'We Are The Best' Attitude" post at ExMormon.org, 24 Oct 2004 10:29 AM claims, as a former member, that the Church "encourages its followers to ignore or depreciate the lives of all non-believers." This ex-member claims that only following his apostasy did he "accept...that all others were as worthy as I am. So...I held myself aloof from the rest of mankind as a result of my Mormon conceit."
