I am not being mean, I just want some serious answers from Mormons.
I would do the same for anyone with questions about Christianity.

Because mormons immediately get on the defensive when you ask them stuff they haven't learned in Sunday School, claiming that you just made it up or you're just a hateful bashing antimormon

Ok.. I answered most of those questions you asked. But, the questions you bring up can be very easily refuted, and have been many times. Here is a site that maybe you should read. It may help you to understand more about us, and what we believe. There are some awesome pages about the Book of Mormon that talk about all this stuff you bring up.
Also, you are taking a few scriptures, pointing out things that you think are wrong with them, without any evidence your way, then asking us to prove you wrong. That makes most of us- even people who aren't LDS- defensive. Try asking some of the same questions about the bible, if you are so into learning about religions. Maybe ask these questions to other faiths that have books they consider holy. I'm sure you wouldn't do this to someone who is Muslim, or Buddhist, or Jewish. So.. here's a challenge. Answer some of these questions, or make more up about the bible. You may learn a little something about the bible also!!

If you're trying to de-convert TBMs (true believing mushroonheads), this isn't the forum to do that. It's the same result of teaching a pig to sing; a waste of your time and annoys the pig.
But, If you want the rest of the world to see all the inconsistent nonsense mormons 'believe' in, you're more than up to the task - just be sure the facts are correct. 'Facts' and mormonism cannot co-exist together in the same dimension. Matter and antimatter is a good analogy, and even uses familiar sounding mormon prefixes.
The world has need of 'willful' men, as the song goes....

The questions that you ask are good ones and I have asked the same things and more to elders.
I had a look at the questions you had listed and the replies don't look like you are getting bashed too hard.

Because you are not asking questions about inconsistencies about other religions. You are picking on one religion. It is late right now so I can not think of the right word but if you were talking about a race it would be racism want you are doing . What is the word for being against one certain religion?
To your last statement there are also many inconsistencies within the Baptist Church.

Bashing is wrong -- I don't know if I have answered any of your questions -- cuz I don't want to take the time to check your links -- So to save myself time
I am sorry if any of my answers offended you or anyone else -- if I bashed I was wrong to do so -- I am sorry.
If I feel that someone has bashed my religion it does not give me the right to bash back.

I'm LDS and I'm personally tired of seeing all the bashing going on from other answers. That's why I don't take some questions seriously...however, I have answered a couple of yours tonight with serious answers.

Truth in the Mormon religion as with all religions is subjective due to the fact that it is based in faith.
The Mormon religion is unique in the fact that it is young enough to have verifiable proof that there are many things taught by the church that are not true...period. That fact undermines the foundation of a huge and very succesful machine, avoidance or denial of those facts is the only way to keep the faith....and not look stupid.

We are living in a society that is increasingly protective of religions in general. It is uncomfortable for people to be confronted with evidence that their belief system is an obvious fraud, such as the case with Mormons or Scientologists. Older religions are able to hide beneath centuries of obfuscation

Rebuke the demon spirit of doctrinal error which afflicts many if not all Mormons. Pray for their deliverance from this spirit. It may not only be the spirit keeping them in bondage. Usually, demonic spirits group themselves in "gangs" (see "Pigs in the Parlor" by Frank Hammond or visit his website http://www.thechildrensbread.net)
FYI, our pastor just delivered and helped pray through a Mormon from this spirit with the Holy Ghost, and now he is living in truth. The spirit world immediately attacked the former Mormon, ransacking the contents of his home right after he was delivered. But now that he is covered under the blood of Jesus, he is now a possession of God rather than the demons. This spirit is real and can recite/regurgitate the Word of God from front to back cover, but in a combative, antagonistic way, definetely NOT for the glory of God.
Love the sinner, hate/rebuke the sin. God Bless You!
