What if i saw some angels or something and told me some BS can i go write a whole new book and convince people about my own personal BS? I am surprised by how this Joseph Smith guy can all of a sudden "see spirits" and he is just like regular people like you and me. Dont you think this is such BS?

The book of Moron is a recreation of what they want the bible to be!
The Bible is the Bible and Any changing of it will be with consequence.
I'm not sure about the Joseph Smith guy, but he sounds like another quack.

I don't want to offend any Mormons out there, but if you can get a hold of a copy of "Kingdom of the Cults" by Walter Martin, you will discover that Mormonism is heavily tied into the Masons.
You've heard of Masonic lodges, right? Well, from the outside, it seems like a good old boys club, but those at the upper level are exposed to occult practices. Joseph Smith incorporated much of this "doctrine" into his Book of Mormon.
By the way, Walter Martin died some years ago, but that book is still a classic. To get the best buy, try eBay or Amazon.

If you want to be a looser, that is your choice.
Joseph Smith WAS a prophet of GOD. An Honest study of his life will back that up. He died for his beliefs and so did many other persons.
For the other skeptics out there, You are really wrong about what you THINK the Book of Mormon is. It is really a second witness that Jesus is the Christ.
Read it and find out for yourself.
Go to www.lds.org and request a FREE copy of the book. Read it and ask God if it is true and you may be surprised.
Been there, done that.

I thought you said you were "hella mello". Where do you get off calling Mormons "crap"? Are you an Jr. High school student or what?
I guess if you prayed about it and were willing to be murdered for it, I might believe you too.
Why are you wasting your time worrying about Mormons. Go out and make your community a better place instead of sitting in front of your computer bagging on people different from you. Bigotry is SO unattractive.

When you think about it, every religious prophet from every religion was just your average joe before they taught their ways. Jesus was a carpenter. The reason you think Mormon is such crap is because it's more modern. In a few hundred years, there will probbaly be alot more Mormons. Christianity didn't catch on until around 300 AD.
P.S.: If you want to say **** about a religion, choose Scientology ;).

YOUR Bible is full of regular people who 'saw spirits'. Who do you think God goes to? What was Noah before the flood?
I think it's all BS, too, but not b/c Smith was just a 'regular guy'.
