I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, which is not another; but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ" (Galatians 1:6-7).

Our faith is not built on a NEW gospel, but on the ONLY gospel of Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
You might be confused with the Book of Mormon which declares to be another TESTAMENT of Jesus Christ.
But, since Paul was talking about the "gospel of circumcision" in Galatians, then why should I worry?

Perhaps he was refering to your beliefs? Mormonism follows the patter that Christ established moreso than any Christian relgion on the face of the earth today. I would say your beliefs are much more different than the gospel that Christ taught than those to which Latter-Day Saints subrscribe.

Joseph Smith said this...
"Come on! ye prosecutors! ye false swearers! All hell, boil over! Ye burning mountains, roll down your lava! for I will come out on top at last. I have more to boast of than ever any man had. I am the only man that has ever been able to keep a whole church together since the days of Adam. A large majority of the whole have stood by me. Neither Paul, John, Peter, nor JESUS ever did it. I boast that no man ever did such a work as I. The followers of Jesus ran away from Him; but the Latter-day Saints never ran away from me yet...When they can get rid of me, the devil will also go." (History of the Church, Vol. 6, p. 408, 409)
- Joseph Smith: founder, prophet, seer, and revelator of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

He is talking to the Galations and there were people then who were perverting the Gospel. I don't see how it applies to my current beliefs. Perhaps it could relate to the beliefs of early Christians. It seems to ledn support to the idea of an apostasy.

"...and God created the night and then the day, and then several days later he created the sun and the moon and the stars" Go, on explain that while you're trying to get the Mormons to explain something from a book of fiction.
You're both wrong, there is NO God.
