“Mormons have not murdered anyone in a hundred and fifty years,”

Yet, they have shepherded thousands to damnation, which is a much more serious matter. It would be better for them if they were merely murderers.

2 Peter 2:1-3

1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.

In John 8, Jesus referenced Satan as a "murderer from the beginning."

Sorry...but there weren't dead angels' bodies lying around in heaven...with some angelic perp on the loose.

IOW, Jesus defined "murder" in the broadest spiritual sense...the death of souls...the death of relationships with God...what the Bible references as "the second death."

Also in John 8, Jesus referenced the legalistic Pharisees as "children of the devil." The #1 legalistic religion we have on the Planet Earth -- at least in any significant #s -- is Mormonism.

Whatever cults Satan is able to work thru yields long-term that "second death."

And for you to define death only in materialistic terms shows how naturalistically shallow you are; how reductionistic you are.

There is death beyond a body that stops breathing.

Just over 150: http://www.utlm.org/onlinebooks/bancroftshistoryofutah_chapter19.htm

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mormonism_and_violence#List_of_Mormon_wars_and_massacres (much edited by Mormons)

And unlike the early church, Rome also has their inexcusable religious violence, as did early Protestantism which had much to unlearn from her. But when men exalt their own church over the Scriptures then the bodies as well as the souls of good men and women are in peril.
