I’m also a fan of the film. I’d be interested to know more about the general theological leanings of these scholars. Based on my experience with German Catholics and Protestants in particular, I would not be surprised to find out that openness toward Mormonism among learned members of other faiths generally correlates with progressive theology of a type that doesn’t fly very well in our own Church. It would be refreshing, though — especially after the conservative new Pope decried “sects” in one of his first speeches — to occasionally get some theological ’shout-outs’ from the orthodox end of the spectrum.

When I see non-LDS scholars saying friendly things about the LDS church, I often chuckle to myself about them going to hell because they are lukewarm; they learned the truth but won’t make the covenants. (Of course, I chuckle because the prospect is ridiculous, not because of any vindictive gloating.)
