Someone wrote this and i thought it was brilliant.
"Introduction to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

When Jesus Christ lived on the earth, He organized His Church so that all people could receive His gospel and return one day to live with God, our Heavenly Father. After Jesus Christ ascended to heaven, His Apostles continued to receive revelation from Him on how to direct the work of His Church. However, after they were killed, members changed the teachings of the Church that He had established. While many good people and some truth remained, this Apostasy, or general falling away from the truth, brought about the withdrawal of the Church from the earth. The Apostle Peter prophesied that Jesus would restore His Church before His Second Coming (Acts 3:19–21).
Jesus Christ began to restore His Church in its fulness to the earth through the Prophet Joseph Smith in 1820. It has grown to become a worldwide Church with over 12 million members. It has the same teachings"

Go honey!! People dont see the truth and thats their problem. Just do us all a favor and dont get into a debate with them over it. We already have the truth and Heavenly Fathers plan was choice so let them make that choice. We know he is a loving God and will love them anyhow. It hurts to see people clouded but their spirit must find the truth on its own. Smile and love everyone

Unfortunately mainstream Mormons get no press, only freaks like Jeffs who advocate something that the LDS Church has banned for more than a century. Attitudes are changing. Even heavily Catholic Massachusetts has a Mormon governor. He had to campaign in bars all over, while having to limit himself to soft drinks.

Joseph Smith was not a prophet, however no matter how much evidence there is; no one is generally able to change another’s belief, and as much as I believe that you're following a false prophet it is your choice to make.

Please Choose Wisely

because the idea that a man would be given gold plates with the gospel on them and no one would ever see these plates and then an angel would take them away before it could be proven is rubbish.
The only thing about smith was that he was smart enough to trick many poor suckers into believing the lies.

What do people have against scientologists? Whats the matter with believing a religion full of science fiction nonsense? nothing!!!!!

Different religion, same basic principle. I consider both yours and theirs to be utterly whacko and the believers to be absolutely self-deluded.
