Because i am proudly a mormon, and i love it so much, it's so much fun but feels so unbelievable and wonderful at the same time, and it hurts to see people bagging on mormons with things that aren' t even true! there's so many crazy rumors, its INSANE! so heres your chance, ask your questions and leave me an IM or email to answer to, please, i'm not trying to convert, just letting u know the truth and u can take it from there

I think it's good you are trying to do this, but most will probably use this as another opportunity to make fun of the religion.

And it came to pass that the spirit said to me, "IT IS BETTER THAT ONE SHOULD PERISH THAN THAT A NATION SHOULD DWINDLE AND PERISH IN UNBELIEF"
In the Bible, who said exactly that phrase?

"BUT THE LORD KNOWETH ALL THINGS FROM THE BEGINNING"
Does this mean that G-- only knows the beginning?

"BUT YE HAVE SAID, EXCEPT THEY REPENT, THE LORD HATH COMMANDED YOU THAT YE SHOULD GO AGAINST THEM"
In the Bible does G-- ever give humans his job?

"HE SHOULD RISE FROM THE DEAD, AND SHOULD MAKE HIMSELF MANIFEST, BY THE HOLY GHOST, ONTO THE GENTILES"
In the Bible, who does Jesus manifest himself to?

"BETHABARA, BEYOND JORDAN; AND HE ALSO SAID HE SHOULD BATIZE WITH WATER"
In the Bible, what does John the Baptist say Jesus is going to baptize with?

"AND THE SPIRIT SAID TO ME, WHAT DESIRETH THOU?"
In the Bible, do G--'s angels tempt people?

"AND YE SHALL BE VISITED WITH UTTER DESTRUCTION; AND IT SHALL BE ACCORDING TO THE FIERCE ANGER OF THE LORD"
In Genesis, Revelations, all over the place, and Jesus says it too: How will you be judged?

Jesus said, "My sheep hear my voice" Do you hear his voice?

Jesus said, "Marriage is an earthly institution. It doesn't exist in heaven." Who has the athority to over rule G--'s law on earth? You, Hinkley, Smith?

Jesus said, "when you have a lantern, where do you place it? Under the bed, behind the table? Up high right so that it can brighten everything."
So why are there secretive hush-hush rituals--oh yeah you say that they are sacred-- perform only in temples?

Jesus said, "the prophets ended with John the baptist"
So, why do think that Smith, or worse Hinkley is a prophet.

I know more about Mormon that you do or will ever imagine. I can only pray for you and that Jesus can help you. G-- bless you........

I think that LDSs are pretty cool. I'm a Lutheran, but my ex-boyfriend is a Mormon. In fact, right now he's serving his mission in Utah. There's something about your religion that all the members seem to be soo excited about it. they're all so happy and proud. that's really cool. I think that the main reason people shun your religion is the fact that they can't grasp the reality of a mordern day prophet, like Josheph Smith. They're all used to everything being in Jesus's time.

I really couldn't give a monkeys about mormons.
Though I am quite proud that I soaked a couple of young mormon guys last month who kept coming round and knocking on the door - with a super soaker from the bedroom window!
They haven't been back!

For 30 years I listened many times to mormons trying to recrute me. I listened attentativly and read what was presented. Much of the outward stuff looks very good.... And there are very many otherwise very good people in that

During this time I was very much anti bible thumper... so concidered carefuly what the mormons offered...

When I started to look closely at wahat was the basis of their "faith" ...this after many years of listening and reading what they gave me...I found litteraly nothing..... They have absolutly nothing to base their faith on except the word of one man and the recanted wittness of his first witnessess...and the repeated words through his successors.... That is it...

J Smith even claimed to have received the compleat bible directly from god and all of his followers at the time touted it to the world as god most perfect word...but it is never used in general teaching within the mormon wards... why? because even the leadership knows it is full of errors...they now tout the King James Bible, after most of the time of the LDS they have taught that the "christian" bible was false and all christians were the enemy. Now they are trying to claim that they are christian.... that alone negates all that J Smith said he was and had received. "directly from God"

I ask the questoner this... What is your personal testimony...not the script you are to give from your leaders...your personal testimony of your personal Faith... I asked many mormons this and never got more than the party line...

Also... are you willing to read of The True Christian Faith? And do so openly with the knowledge of your mrmon leaders? From works that are not of mormon selection?

you are invited to read my testimony... I am now, at age 59, of the Christian Faith. For just over 6 years... my pov on the mormons was well fixed long before I came to The True Faith... it is not influenced by my faith to day.

My best Christian friend in my congrigation is one who was born into the mormon. and lived and rose to high position in his ward stake faith etc...for over 40 years...till he to saw the emtiness of those who are the Lost and Decieved o Satan

You are invited, in peace, to visit my website. I will post the direct link to my testimony. Yu do not have to tell any one you are visiting and I do not keep any record of who dose. and I do not spam any who ask questions.

HEY, IF IT IS ALL SO GOOD, WHY DOESN'T THAT GUY THAT ARRANGED THE MARRAGES FOR THE UNDERAGED GIRLS, AND IS ON THE F.B.I.'s 10 most wanted list turn himself in for Child molestation ?? I think that he has about 1,500 acre compound in Utah. Why do they have to have locks to keep the people from leaving the compound ??

They believe in having several wives.. Even if the bride is underage....Are you happy with this ???

The Mormons are wonderful folks. Maybe they are one in few christian groups that truly show love to their fellowman.

Yes, I would like to know why when you tell them to GO AWAY they just wait until the next set of missionaries to come in and then send them to visit - without telling them that it may be hostile?
