The following is an article by Kurt Andersen published in The Atlantic. While he does not withhold his criticism of Mormon beliefs (beliefs he explains using terms and examples which are often lacking in their accuracy), it's interesting to note that he does not withhold praise of the way Mormons live those beliefs: "Latter-day Saints were the brave, virtuous avant garde, and as ridiculous as I find their supernatural beliefs, they are in this instance an outpost of true, real-world righteousness in a party in the grip of a terrible Faustian bargain."

Author's Note: I served as a full-time missionary in the Hawai‘i Honolulu Mission from 1994 to 1996. Manu Nāpela is a fictional character; however, the principles and stories he shares are true. Manu represents the wisdom and experiences of several people. The other names, places, and accounts throughout my book are factual and are from my missionary journals and memories. I [Cameron Taylor] had this dream on December 25, 2014. The details of the dream and interpretation of the dream have not been changed or adapted other than having the dream told by the character Manu.
