Personal?
Heck!
I attack ALL of MORMONism!
(There IS a precedent you know...)
Resty; you are a fool.
Jim 'dislikes' MORMONism.
And MORMONism HATES Christianity.
So I guess we are even.
Since this thread got away from the subject matter that I was interested in discussing, I'll leave you to your hijacking...!

Smile and wave, boys; just smile and wave.
Do you, Resty, believe that GOD left us warnings in the BIBLE about following a False Prophet?
Resty; you MORMONs sure have a FUNNY way of defining 'truth'!
Joseph Smith continues: "for the teachers of religion of the different sects understood the same passages of scripture so differently as to destroy all confidence in settling the question by an appeal to the Bible" (from 1:12). "What is it that inspires professors of Christianity generally with a hope of salvation? It is that smooth, sophisticated influence of the devil, by which he deceives the whole world" (, p.270).Questions put to Joseph Smith: "'Do you believe the Bible?' [Smith:]'If we do, we are the only people under heaven that does, for there are none of the religious sects of the day that do'. When asked 'Will everybody be damned, but Mormons'? [Smith replied] 'Yes, and a great portion of them, unless they repent, and work righteousness." (, p. 119).Brigham Young stated this repeatedly: "When the light came to me I saw that all the so-called Christian world was grovelling in darkness" ( 5:73); "The Christian world, so-called, are heathens as to the knowledge of the salvation of God" ( 8:171); "With a regard to true theology, a more ignorant people never lived than the present so-called Christian world" ( 8:199); "And who is there that acknowledges [God's] hand? ...You may wander east, west, north, and south, and you cannot find it in any church or government on the earth, except the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" (, vol. 6, p.24); "Should you ask why we differ from other Christians, as they are called, it is simply because they are not Christians as the New Testament defines Christianity" ( 10:230).Orson Pratt proclaimed: "Both Catholics and Protestants are nothing less than the 'whore of Babylon' whom the Lord denounces by the mouth of John the Revelator as having corrupted all the earth by their fornications and wickedness. Any person who shall be so corrupt as to receive a holy ordinance of the Gospel from the ministers of any of these apostate churches will be sent down to hell with them, unless they repent" (, p. 255).Pratt also said: "This great apostasy commenced about the close of the first century of the Christian era, and it has been waxing worse and worse from then until now" (, vol.18, p.44) and: "But as there has been no Christian Church on the earth for a great many centuries past, until the present century, the people have lost sight of the pattern that God has given according to which the Christian Church should be established, and they have denominated a great variety of people Christian Churches, because they profess to be ...But there has been a long apostasy, during which the nations have been cursed with apostate churches in great abundance" (, 18:172).President John Taylor stated: "Christianity...is a perfect pack of nonsense...the devil could not invent a better engine to spread his work than the Christianity of the nineteenth century." (, vol. 6, p.167); "Where shall we look for the true order or authority of God? It cannot be found in any nation of Christendom." (, 10:127).James Talmage said: "A self-suggesting interpretation of history indicates that there has been a great departure from the way of salvation as laid down by the Savior, a universal apostasy from the Church of Christ". (, p.182).President Joseph Fielding Smith said: "Doctrines were corrupted, authority lost, and a false order of religion took the place of the gospel of Jesus Christ, just as it had been the case in former dispensations, and the people were left in spiritual darkness." (, p.266). "For hundreds of years the world was wrapped in a veil of spiritual darkness, until there was not one fundamental truth belonging to the place of salvation ...Joseph Smith declared that in the year 1820 the Lord revealed to him that all the 'Christian' churches were in error, teaching for commandments the doctrines of men" (, vol. 3, p.282).More recent statements by apostle Bruce McConkie are also very clear: "Apostasy was universal...And this darkness still prevails except among those who have come to a knowledge of the restored gospel" (, vol 3, p.265); "Thus the signs of the times include the prevailing apostate darkness in the sects of Christendom and in the religious world in general" (The Millennial Messiah, p.403); "a perverted Christianity holds sway among the so-called Christians of apostate Christendom" (, p.132); "virtually all the millions of apostate Christendom have abased themselves before the mythical throne of a mythical Christ whom they vainly suppose to be a spirit essence who is incorporeal uncreated, immaterial and three-in-one with the Father and Holy Spirit" (, p.269); "Gnosticism is one of the great pagan philosophies which antedated Christ and the Christian Era and which was later commingled with pure Christianity to form the apostate religion that has prevailed in the world since the early days of that era." (, p.316).President George Q. Cannon said: "After the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was organized, there were only two churches upon the earth. They were known respectively as the Church of the Lamb of God and Babylon. The various organizations which are called churches throughout Christendom, though differing in their creeds and organizations, have one common origin. They all belong to Babylon" (Gospel Truth, p.324).President Wilford Woodruff stated: "the Gospel of modern Christendom shuts up the Lord, and stops all communication with Him. I want nothing to do with such a Gospel, I would rather prefer the Gospel of the dark ages, so called" (, vol. 2, p.196).
Yeah: FALSE ones!
Your 'christ' cannot forgive a person of MURDER like the BIBLE One can!

Do you Elsie believe that Lord Jesus Christ ask you to keep His commandments?
****
You never answer that question Elsie as many times it has been posted.
Elsie you can shout as loud as you like trying to
undermined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
but in the end
Do you Elsie strive to Keep the Lord’s commandments?
Or are you too busy Elsie tearing down your neighbor belief...
Elsie did not the Lord say Keep my Commandments?
John 14:15
15¶If ye love me, keep my commandments.
16And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever
John 15:10
10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Fathers commandments, and abide in his love.
you need to go back to the 1800 which you failed to keep things in context how ugly the neighboring sects were towards the Joseph and the LDS by dragging them out of their beds in the dead of night to tar and feather.
religious freedom seems to be only for the majority!
You folks want to eat this stuff up without wondering why another group would say that without a cause amazes me.
These LDS people were driven to the desert yet that did not stop the antis from endlessly stirring the pot.
Sadly the mountain meadow massacre happen because of paranoid by a few rouges LDS who took things into their own hand yet there are those who would like to say it was Brigham Young and these is no proof but why let that stop liars from waging their tongues!
Perhaps that is because 'ol joey was trying to bed another young lady and the family took offense at his ovatures.

Nope, the FLDS were not bothered by the 'antis'. It was bring'em young who did the 'driving'.

Lee was the adopted son of bring'em young. A militia is not directed by a few rouges. A few rogues don't hold on to the surviving children - hiding them from gov't troops trying to restore them to their surviving families. A few rogues don't divide up the spoils with bring'em young getting top cut.
And the lds church REFUSES to allow the surviving family members memoralize them by replacing the cross on the rock cairn that bring'em young tore down.
you are like the progressives your play book stays the same
distort distort distort .
However, this applies to you.
TYhat's because you want to put ME on defense and explain my I do things, to get the ATTENTION away from the HERESY that is MORMONism.
Have YOU forgotten that YOU never have 'answered':
"What did Joseph Smith alledgly 'learn' was UNTRUE about PRESBYTERIANism?"

Post all the BIBLE verses you want; but YOU have to explain to GOD why YOU do not follow your unique MORMON scripture.
