You do know that Mormons were driven out of Missouri because they were against slavery, and were a large voting block. Many Many evangelical churches still have segregated congregations. If Baptists want to take this issue on, they had better be prepared to do so. ____________________________________________________________
You forgot to add that they were against the real Jesus too! And take a look at what Brigham said about black people in the JOD and about the priesthood and blacks? Along with other Mormon leaders, you can deny their racist history all you want but the facts are undeniable.

Brigham Young - "Cain and his posterity will remain cursed and not receive the priesthood until all other children of Adam have had this privilege." — Journal of Discourses, vol. 2, p. 143 (December 12, 1854)

Brigham Young - "The mark of Cain is a flat nose and black skin." — Journal of Discourses, vol. 7, p. 290 (October 9, 1859)

Brigham Young - "The present struggle (Civil War) will not free the descendants of Ham who are slaves." — Journal of Discourses, vol. 10, p. 250 (October 6, 1863)

I'm cursed according to the early Mormon leaders! These are my main arguments when I witness to Mormons and they claim that they "have new revelation from the living prophet"!

The truth does not change! According to Dut. 18:20-22, it only takes one!

Today is 2012 and mormonism has yet to apologize for its racism and racist history.

Everyone knows this except for Mormon, maybe they do and are just in denial. Like the Mountain Meadow Massacre.

Jesus only chose men, and only from one tribe. Does that make his sexist and racist? This is not a road taken lightly. Careful where you all step.

I'm going to take a big "step" and say without a shadow of a doubt and say that God did not choose Joseph Smith!

Changing accounts of the first vision and the Mormon church claims that "it was a single occurrence"! See below...

1827 — Account of Joseph Smith, Sr., and Joseph Smith, Jr., given to Willard Chase, as related in his 1833 affidavit.

1827 — Account by Martin Harris given to Rev. John Clark, as published in his book Gleanings by the Way, printed in 1842, pp. 222-229.

1830 — Interview of Joseph Smith by Peter Bauder, recounted by Bauder in his book The Kingdom and the Gospel of Jesus Christ, printed in 1834, pp. 36-38.

1832 — Earliest known attempt at an ‘official’ recounting of the ‘First Vision, from History, 1832, Joseph Smith Letterbook 1, pp.2,3, in the handwriting of Joseph Smith.

1834-35 — Oliver Cowdery, with Joseph Smith’s help, published the first history of Mormonism in the LDS periodical Messenger and Advocate, Kirtland, Ohio, Dec. 1834, vol.1, no.3

1835 — Account given by Joseph Smith to Joshua the Jewish minister, Joseph Smith Diary, Nov. 9, 1835.

1835 — Account given by Joseph Smith to Erastus Holmes on November 14, 1835, originally published in the Deseret News of Saturday May 29, 1852.

1838 — This account became the official version, now part of Mormon Scripture in the Pearl of Great Price, Joseph Smith — History, 1:7-20. Though written in 1838, it was not published until 1842 in Times and Season, March 15, 1842, vol. 3, no. 10, pp. 727-728, 748-749, 753.

1844 — Account in An Original History of the Religious Denominations at Present Existing in the United States, edited by Daniel Rupp. Joseph Smith wrote the chapter on Mormonism.
