Reading this, I wonder why a LDS missionary got interested in a rationalist community which is generally hostile to religion. I would appreciate some explanation about the author's motivations.

Because there are things I can learn here. I can handle the hostility to religion. But if you don't cross-pollinate, you become a hick.
