To: Revelation 911

It is strange. Mormons believe that early Christians apostasized shortly after Christ was crucified. The apostacy was so complete that Christianity was taken from the earth.

BUT there were twelve apostles chosen on this American Continent....AND they also apostasized through wickedness, so that Christ’s Church was completely lost from the earth.

THEN Christ appeared to a boy, and brought back the fullness of the Gospel after 1700 years. I wonder why Mormons don’t believe the Gospel can be lost again?

God promised that the gates of hell would not prevail against his Church, yet Mormons believe it has happened at least TWICE before. Just another twist in Mormonism. It is curious, that’s all.

wow. this isn’t cool. Do Mormons state stuff like this openly?:

“The degenerate remnant of Lehi’s posterity, the Lamanites or American Indians, have continued until this day.”

Gospel of John (ch 10) speaks of Sheep Pens.. Mormonism is a very strange sheep pen with strange sheep.. almost as strange as Scientology..

To: Revelation 911
As a true apostle of Christ wrote, “I marvel that you are being so quickly removed from the One who called you with Christ's undeserved kindness over to another sort of good news. But it is not another; only there are certain ones who are causing you trouble and wanting to pervert the good news about the Christ. However, even if we or an angel out of heaven were to declare to you as good news something beyond what we declared to you as good news, let him be accursed (or “nanthema”). As we have said above, I also now say again, Whoever it is that is declaring to you as good news something beyond what you accepted, let him be accursed”.
The apostle Paul to the Galatians 1:6-9.
The good news that the apostle Paul received from Christ or the “perverted good news” of Joseph Smith?

To: Revelation 911
The state of blessed prosperity and of common ownership continued for a period of a hundred and sixty-seven years; but soon thereafter came a most distressing change. Pride displaced humility, display of costly apparel superseded the simplicity of happier days; rivalry led to contention, and thence the people "did have their goods and their substance no more common among them, and they began to be divided into classes, and they began to build up churches unto themselves, to get gain, and began to deny the true church of Christ." Man-made churches multiplied, and persecution, true sister to intolerance, became rampant.

They were COMMIES!

The red-skinned Lamanites reverted to their degraded ways, and developed a murderous hostility against their white brothers; and all manner of corrupt practices became common among both nations.

They went from blessed Commies to Racist Capitalist pigs.

To: Revelation 911
Why discuss the paint job on the house, while the foundation is so crumbly??

MORMONISM was founded when an ignornat, 14 yo farmboy - with no bible knowledge; was deceived by two Satanic messengers posing as angels of light.


            A  TERRIBLE  TRAGEDY
                  MADE  WORSE 

The powerful earthquake that hit China on May 12 was bad enough in itself. The Sichuan province was devastated.
 
Buildings, houses, roads, and bridges collapsed into heaps of rubble in an instant.
 
Perhaps the most heartbreaking results of the earthquake is the destruction of many school buildings, killing over 10,000 children as the buildings fell flat to the ground.
 
Numerous families lost their only child. And because the government allows only one child per household, many parents feel an even deeper sense of loss.
 
The earthquake is not the only tragedy in this disaster.
 
The Chinese people live with pandemic corruption that has infiltrated every level of the government and society.
 
It is now becoming clear that the deaths of many of the children were caused as much by the rife corruption as by the earthquake itself.
 
Most of the government buildings remained standing, although they were damaged. However, that was not the case with the schools.
 
The school buildings were built on faulty foundations with sub-standard materials using shoddy construction methods - all of which passed inspection because the inspectors were corrupt and took bribes from the construction companies.
 
The buildings would normally have been made strong enough to withstand an earthquake of this magnitude. At least, they would not have "pancaked" onto the children, and many, if not most, of their lives would have been spared.
 
The school buildings were so poorly constructed that the Chinese have even given them a name - tofu buildings, because they are no sturdier than soybean curd.
 
The state-run media is cooperating with government officials in censoring the full story from being told.
 
Nevertheless, what is known is that a terrible tragedy was made far worse because the school buildings were not built to code.


What is YOUR house built on?
