Though that question was not posed to me, I'd like to answer it.
The most critical focus on mormonism and the most critical commentary of mormons is that they call themselves "Christians".
They are not "Christian" believers since they do not believe in the actual Christ of the Bible.
They believe in a made-up Christ from the bogus works of Joe Smith.
By the way, I studied astronomy in College and could never find Planet Kolob.

Here's a great site to find ALL about mormonism, written by folks that know it well.

I personally know several Mormons and they’re all very nice....too nice. There’s something very plastic about Mormons personally, sorta like watching an episode of a 1950’s sitcom.

Thanks for providing a decent explanation.

May I point out that most Christian believers 'know' that Jesus had blonde hair and blue eyes.

Christian believers have a lot of 'made up stuff' in their 'religions' as well.

Those details are not what's important anyway. It's the CONCEPTS put forth that GOD is trying to 'reveal' to us.

As far as the notion of Kolob, again these are only ways that a different religion explains the unexplainable.

The Christian 'view' of heaven is merely what someone still on the material plane believes that spiritual existence is like.

While fanciful and pretty, it's not 'the truth'. We can't yet 'understand' the truth.
