There must be a more positive way to spend your time. Try showing the good things that the Mormons are doing for a change.

Your constant and predictable bashing of the LDS faith is getting very boring.

Great site if you want to learn more about Mormon history:

http://www.deseretbooks.com

Also, see here how the evil Mormons have donated 225,000 lbs. of food, medical supplies, doctors and tents etc.

Yahwohl Mein Herr!!!

I vill read ze lds propaganda as you order! Ze productivity of the collective vill increase as you demand!

NOT!

They have many positive outcomes from posting this material and much like it. It exposes the lies, hypocrisy, manipulation and outright falseness of this so called religion.

It’s long overdue in my opinion, that this type of material is presented for all the world to see so that INFORMED decisions can be made about joining or avoiding. Do you have a problem with folks being informed?

(You mean, besides ignoring women in a fictional work based upon a fictional work?)

Tell us why women are so prominent in the Bible -- by name -- and yet they're AWOL in the BoM?

How do Lds contemporary women find role models in the BoM?

What good is being “nice” if it doesn’t get you where you want to be in the end? LDS, although very “good” people are on a fast train to nowhere and are taking more and more people with them all the time.

Why should we ignore the lies and filth of wrong doctrine just because y’all are nice neighbors and friendly coworkers?

Seeing as how LDS Inc. is above all else a self serving money machine with an ample PR budget I thin we can eave the cheer leading and bait and switch tactics to them.

First, there is NO more positive way to spend my time than to tell others about what the LDS really teach/believe, my experiences in and the mistake I made in joining the LDS church, and the joy in Christ I found after leaving the LDS church.

It is my prayer that my posts will keep others for falling for their lies.

Second, HOW, HOW, is posting articles from the LDS church own publications “bashing”?? Please explain THAT logic.

Third, your shameless pimping of the LDS owned ‘deseret books’ and PR for the so called ‘charity’ of the LDS church is just sad.

Yeah, they took stuff to Haiti, but so did many other groups and churches and most of them didn’t have a RUNNING PR campaign about it. Typical SOP, anything to make “the church” look good.

Doing good won’t get you back into the presence of God, only accepting the fact that Jesus’ shed innocent blood on the CROSS (not the garden) to pay for your sins will.

Faith in the Jesus of the Bible, not works, saves.

You do realize you are posting to former LDS?

I am not but have more than 100 friends who are and I care for one who is 99 1/2. I think she came across the plains with Brigham Young(just kidding).

Mormons do a lot of great things as do many other “Christians” and their churches. We just don’t have a PR company to help us look good or make it look as if we are in parity with the m oslems.

It know EXACTLY what you mean!!


 
 The LDS Organization® prints Hundreds of Thousands of THIS yearly!

http://scriptures.lds.org/en/js_h/1/17#17

  17 It no sooner appeared than I found myself delivered from the enemy which held me bound. When the light rested upon me I saw two Personages, whose brightness and glory defy all description, standing above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other—This is My Beloved Son. Hear Him!
  18 My object in going to inquire of the Lord was to know which of all the sects was right, that I might know which to join. No sooner, therefore, did I get possession of myself, so as to be able to speak, than I asked the Personages who stood above me in the light, which of all the sects was right (for at this time it had never entered into my heart that all were wrong)—and which I should join.
  19 I was answered that I must join none of them, for they were all wrong; and the Personage who addressed me said that all their creeds were an abomination in his sight; that those professors were all corrupt; that: “they draw near to me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me, they teach for doctrines the commandments of men, having a form of godliness, but they deny the power thereof.”
  20 He again forbade me to join with any of them; and many other things did he say unto me, which I cannot write at this time. When I came to myself again, I found myself lying on my back, looking up into heaven. When the light had departed, I had no strength; but soon recovering in some degree, I went home. And as I leaned up to the fireplace, mother inquired what the matter was. I replied, “Never mind, all is well—I am well enough off.” I then said to my mother,
“I have learned for myself that Presbyterianism is not true.”
 
 
The LDS headquarters; in the heart of a modern  US city, visited by THOUSANDS daily, has this placed in prominent view:
 
 
...which reiterates the charge that "they were all wrong; they teach for doctrines the commandments of men".

They could find a cure for baldness, but it doesn’t mean they aren’t a cult, now does it?

***Also, see here how the evil Mormons have donated 225,000 lbs. of food, medical supplies, doctors and tents etc.**

Yup, their partnering with the Muslims is a great thing. By your own standard we should post nice things about the Muslims too?

January 30, 2010
 
A barge carrying 400 tons (800,000 pounds) of Samaritan’s Purse emergency relief supplies arrived in Haiti on Friday. An assortment of heavy equipment was also on board, including a bulldozer, dump trucks, skid loaders, and flatbed trucks to help with debris removal, access clearing, hauling, and other difficult tasks.

“One of the first things I want to do is help rebuild secure perimeters around churches to help them be established as distribution points for the community,” said Ken Isaacs, the vice president of projects for Samaritan’s Purse. “One of the first jobs we’ll tackle with the excavator is to help the church in Cite Soleil put their wall back up.”

The Christian Church of the Cities in Cite Soleil was the distribution point for 1,000 family relief packs on Friday. Troops with the 82nd Airborne provided security for the distribution and at the dock when the barge arrived. They also helped drive vehicles back to the Samaritan’s Purse base on the outskirts of Port-au-Prince.

“I haven’t seen a convoy like this since Iraq,” said Specialist Alex Russell, who was deployed to Iraq for 18 months before coming to Haiti. “That’s a lot of equipment.”

Samaritan’s Purse expects to continue relief efforts in Haiti for at least two years.

“We want to work closely with the military community,” Isaacs said. “We’ve received tremendous assistance from the 82nd Airborne. They’re familiar with the critical needs in their sector and we want to work with them to address those needs.”

Samaritan’s Purse workers are compiling a growing list of removal projects at churches, hospitals, schools, and other facilities that serve the community.

“We’re going to do what we can and we’re going to do it in the name of Christ,” Isaacs said. “I believe God is working. I see His hand everywhere."
