Give an example of a "lie" they told. And then refute their "lie."

Where to begin, where to begin.

In doing a little research, I found that the general conference schedule WAS changed for the SLC Olympics though. Oh, really? So, what kind of research told you that General Conference, which is held in October and April was rescheduled for a Feburary Olympics?

And the lengthy hymns thread. Note the claims that "mentions of the Cross are deleted from mormon versions" followed up with examples from the LDS hymnbook where the cross is mentioned. Or implying that we change or don't sing Christmas hymns. Note my replies in 19, 20, and 21. And the many side discussions (Mormons aren't Christian because they use water instead of wine in the sacrament in posts 28 and 31, or Mormons can't read the Bible very well in 25, 29, 30, 34, 36, 37, 39).

Or this fake letter posted and commented on as if it were real. 127's statement "Further - you cannot claim to have full knowledge that this isn’t a valid letter" is funny considering we have the confession of the author that it is a fake.

Christians sing Christmas Carols...about the birth of Jesus..mormons sing “Praise the man” about Joey Smith... while not an actual lie, certainly is trying to imply that Mormons do not sing Christmas hymns.

There are many folks that post "lies for Jesus" much as they accuse Mormons of the same.

Pinging the ones quoted as a courtesy.

greyfoxxx39..."You've posted a total of 734 threads and 20,909 replies."

In those hundreds of threads and thousands of replies, many times I have posted irrefutable information from LDS leaders and official sources on mormon doctrine.

Since the admittedly minor point of whether mormons remove the word cross from some of their hymns was felt to be such a major point to post about, why don't you do some more research into these thousands of posts and find something doctrinally incorrect to discuss?

The mormon response to our threads and posts is primarily whining about the fact that we are free to post this information, instead of actually presenting point-by-point doctrinal information proving us wrong.

It appears that rather than "discussion" mormons prefer lecturing on closed threads. I guess having a million full-time missionaries over the years doing the heavy work has either made FR mormons lazy...or unequipped.

So your response is "we do TOO sing Christmas carols."

Splendid! Way to call 'em out and expose the "hate."

Uh oh looks like you got us...

Guess I should present those Nephite artifacts I have been hiding in my attic to SLC and inject all that Hebrew DNA I mutated out of the native American populations back into their systems...

Sorry folks but the BOM is really true. I apologize for hiding it for 180 years...

Are you a member of the Mormon melchisedec priesthood?

Oh come on, Tadpole. That letter was never meant to be taken seriously and I admitted it was fake as soon as I saw someone take it seriously.

It was supposed to be written over the top so people would know it was a joke. That was not a ‘lie’ or an attempt to seriously deceive. It was a PARODY. OY.

However, that people did take it seriously, says more about the control Mormonism shows over its members than it does about us.

Re - your other comments - none of those are lies either. You seem to be holding us to a standard that Mormons don’t hold each other or their leaders to.

And your implication that I ‘lie for Jesus’ is libel. I have NEVER EVER EVER lied on this forum. Nor would I.
