Mormons are discouraged from reading websites or other material that expose the lies of Mormonism (although they do not realize that they are being lied to). I doubt you'll get any takers on your offer.

DEUTERONOMY
CHAPTER 13
The Lord tests his people to see if they will worship false gods—Prophets, dreamers, relatives, or friends who advocate worship of false gods shall be put to death—Idolatrous cities shall be destroyed.

Did Joseph Smith utter false prophecies?
Most of the "false prophecies" that critics attribute to Joseph Smith are not prophecies at all, but commandments that were not obeyed either because the Latter-day Saints were not faithful or because their enemies prevented them
from doing so. For example, though the Lord commanded the Saints to build a temple in Independence, they were expelled from Jackson County and later from the state
of Missouri. After the Saints had settled at Nauvoo, Illinois, the Lord told the prophet Joseph Smith: Verily, verily, I say unto you, that when I give a commandment to any of the sons of men to do a work unto my name, and those sons of men go with all their might and with all they have to perform that work, and cease not their diligence, and their enemies come upon them and hinder them from performing that work,
behold, it behooveth me to require that work no more at the hands of those sons of men, but to accept of their offerings. (D&C 124:49)
There are similar statements in the Bible. For example, the prophet Isaiah told King Hezekiah, "Thus saith the Lord, Set thine house in order: for thou shalt die, and not live" (2 Kings 20:1). But after the king pleaded with the Lord, the prophet delivered a new message, saying that 15 years would
be added to his life. The Lord told Moses that he would destroy the Israelites and make of Moses a greater nation than they. When Moses protested that this would be wrong, the Lord changed his mind (Numbers 14:11-20).
Yeah, you don't sound like a basher...and these aren't excuses - they are explainations, you just don't accept them.

Hey Jodie, Jody, Joe D or whatever your name is,
I am really glad we have people like you on this website who are so concerned about our evil mormon souls. Always trying to reprogram our brainwashed minds, and save us from eternal damnation.
Funny because I really don't care about your soul or if you die in spiritual bondage. I really don't care if you go to heaven or hell and I really don't care if your pastor or priest has brainwashed you. I really don't care if you pay 10% of your income to someone who buys hookers and drugs and new cars and new houses. I JUST REALLY DONT CARE!
So I am glad that you're such an example of Christlike love, compassion, knowledge, morality and you are such an upstanding member of the community, that what you say I can take for Prophecy.
You are such an inspiration to me! ALL HAIL PROPHET JOE D
Now. I want you to place your hand on my "Mormon Bible", renounce Satan from your life! I want you to accept "The Mormon Jesus" into your heart as your "Personal Savior and Redeemer." and be Saved!
Your website if severely misquoted and terribly inaccurate. AND
*The last time I checked, we do have a Temple in Far West.
*The US Congress issued a Letter of Apology to the LDS Church Dated in 1997 for the Atrocities committed in Carthage and Nauvoo
*There is no such revelation in recorded church history stating the "1890 will be the Second Coming"
*Debt? Whatever... You show me proof our church remains in Debt. All of our properties and buildings are paid for in full before we dedicate them for use. This Salem thing is a false quote as it was not revealed until Lorenzo Snow was the Church President and he instituted the Law of The Tithe.
In Short. Your alledged FACTS are not in evidence as they are highly inaccurate. I think you better try harder and have a better understanding of the arguement you are trying to support. YOUR WEBSITE IS A COMPLETE AND TOTAL FABRICATION!

Your tone is clearly trying to bash Mormons as everyone else has pointed out. Frankly I don't know what is at that link or how you would validate anything there. I will tell you what you can validate: The Book of Mormon. Read it and act on it.
Moroni chapter 10 verse 4.
"And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost."
I promise you that if you do read the Book of Mormon and pray sincerely to know the truth of it you will receive a witness of its truth.

There are no false prophecies. There are prophecies that have come to pass; there are prophecies that have not yet come to pass; there are those that people like to call prophecies but aren't; there are those that were never really prophecies, because they are "someone said taht someone said that this prophecy was made".
However, since you seem to have made up your mind and refuse to be swayed by anything resembling teh truth, I guess I just get a free two points.

the whole "Ok listen close to all of the excuses!" thing shows that you ARE a "mormon basher", and this is SO not an LDS source, but still, they are both true. and your little website is full of crap.

If you're really sincear, I'm going to ask out of politnes not to link to Anti Mormon websites. Secondly, making a snide remakr about "Okay listen close to all the excuses" is not a sign of sincearity, so your question doesn't deserve anyone entertaining it, because you're not interested, and you're just wasting our time
Actually I encourage all fellow Mormons to ignore him/her, and questions like his/her's. Yeah, they'll call us duches who are afraid to face the truth, but I say let them. Let them say as they please.

Funny no one wanted to look at Deut. 13; isn't it?
It's almost as if they are afraid.

Yes, this question isn't condescending at all. I'm sure they're all just jumping up and down in excitement to answer this question, so you can give them thumbs down and gloat about how superior you think you are
