I guess this means “evangelicals” would prefer to have a moslem over a Mormon. Brilliant, they are.

Not that much difference...
In the heat of the Missouri Mormon War of 1838, Joseph Smith made the following claim, I will be to this generation a second Mohammed, whose motto in treating for peace was the Alcoran [Koran] or the Sword. So shall it eventually be with usJoseph Smith or the Sword! - Joseph Smith
F15’s summary of the return of Christ to Missouri is accurate.
It is still taught today. There is currently a compound going up near there by some wealthy LDS businessmen (and I think one of the Osmonds) in preparation for Christ’s return there.

I can give you other sources for this as well, from LDS leadership.
IIRC, Joseph Fielding Smith was Joseph Smith’s great nephew (grandson of Hyrum). None of Joe’s children followed Brigham Young, they were all RLDS.
And I think you are correct that McConkie was married to one of JFS’s daughters.
Wow, talk about pots and kettles. Newsflash for you, I understand my faith quite well, since I had to completely rely on the Bible for my theology when I came to the realization that Mormonism was a fraud. What would you like to know about my Christian faith? Ask away...
Your responses are so typical and so not thought out that it really isn’t funny.
It isn’t uncharitable in the least to fight the heresies of Mormonism. I will give you credit though at least you admit to teachings and doctrines that your co-religionists cover up on here.
There are 20,000 polytheistic Christian churches?
I assume you have a valid list...

I have a valid list of the over 100+ breakoffs of Mormonism I can post,
I respectfully suggest you get one. The measure of a man would seem to include what god he worships.
Hey sis :-)
Now you are getting the idea!
The Christianity issue aside, Mittens is very likely a nominal Mormon.

I’m sorry but he is not. He is what is called an ‘active’ Mormon, he believes, attends the temple to do work for the dead, attends his meetings, does his ‘home teaching’, has ‘callings’ (church jobs), etc. You only do that if you really believe, been there done that.
BTW, Reid is also an ‘active’ true believing Mormon. He even states that his politics are because of his Mormon faith not in spite of.
Excellent post!
You are welcome. One thing I learned coming out of Mormonism is that most people have no idea what Mormons really believe or teach. I didn’t before I joined.
Yeah but at least its ‘fresh meat’ and this one is honest.
Adam-ondi-ahman ought to be enough to cause any Mormon with a KJV Bible to realize it is a fairy tale. After all Joseph Smith took several men out there to show them the so-called altar

And they found “Zelph”. ROFL. I always thought those had to be animal bones.
Looking back after all these years, it is like looking at someone else. I intellectually know I believed all of that (and I did), but it is almost surreal to think that I really believed all of that, that I could be so blind and stupid. My only excuse is I was a teenager. When I became an adult I put away ‘childish things’ including my faith in Mormonism.
Does that makes sense?
He's got 'em...

I predict they will be IGNORED; just as EVERY statement (damning) from Mt. SLC gets ignored.
