Nothing- I am a mormon--- for those of you who said they had no problem with mormons and didn't know much about them, why don't you let our missionaries into your house and they can tell you what we believe. It just bugs me when people want to know about us but never ask... sorry if I sound mean, but I get a lot of prejudice for being Mormon

Nothing except that they are a false religion, and the Bible proves it. They claim their gospel came from the Angel Moroni, well the Bible says Gal 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. The Mormons proclaim theirs is another Gospel. At that they speak true for it is not the Gospel of Jesus Christ but of a liar and deceiver.

I have no problem with the LDS people. Notice I called them LDS, Mormon is not something they like to be called, so I appease them in that regard.
I do have problems and concerns with the doctrines of their church. I am very concerned those doctrines are going to lead the LDS people to the opposite place they want to go.

In general I have found them to be nice people, but younger Mormons are often naive and sheltered. They follow a religion which I have always found silly, but then add even more silliness to it.
That sums up my view of Mormons pretty well, but I hesitate to call it a "problem" with Mormons.

Dang Mormons- You know they always send aid to victims of natural disasters, it is like they are trying to beat the Red Cross or something, they are always getting together putting all kinds of care packages together. Then when there is a disaster- they allow people to use their buildings for shelter and stuff- I mean the nerve of them.
Don't even get me started on their family values and their whole push to strengthen the family- I mean come on now.
Oh and how about how they try to be self sufficient and they store food for a rainy day or something.
I mean come on what kind of people do things like that any way.
Darn Mormons anyway.

No problem with Mormons, only with Mormonism:
Mormonism doesn't respect the Bible as God's only Word:
"The Church has 4 Standard Works that are authoritative: The Bible (in so far as it is translated correctly), the Book of Mormon, Doctrine & Covenants, and Pearl of Great Price. Speeches and writings of the current president of the church are also authoritative. The Bible is far below the other standard Works because it is full of errors (wherever it disagrees with Mormon doctrine)."
Mormonism believes in more than one God:
"There are many Gods. Brigham Young-Journal of Discourses 7:333 "How many Gods there are, I do not know. But there never was a time when there were not Gods."
"The Nature of God:
God the Father is an exalted man (a man who has progressed to godhood) with a body of flesh and bones.
Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, 1973 ed., p. 346 - "God himself was once as we are now, and is an exalted man...I say, if you were to see him today, you would see him like a man in a form-like yourselves in all the person, image, and very form as a man."
D & C 130:22 "The Father has a body of flesh and bones as tangible as man's; the Son also."
Mormonism believes in God's "wife".....:
"God the Father has a wife, through whom he procreates spirit children.
"Implicit in the Christian verity that all men are the spirit children of an Eternal Father is the usually unspoken truth that they are also the offspring of an Eternal Mother. An exalted and glorified Man of Holiness (Moses 6:57) could not be a Father unless a Woman of like glory, perfection, and holiness was associated with him as a Mother" (Mormon Doctrine, 1977 ed., p. 516)"
Any more questions?

my patriarticle blessing was not a blessing, it just exposed me, in front fo the person taking down the blessing and the person giving the blessing, it was a psychic reading and I asked for a blessing not a psychic reading.

Maybe people would like them if they::
1. fed the hungry world wide
2. taught their members to be chaste
3. taught their young to read the scriptures and saytheir prayer morning and night.
4. if they sent their young adults into the world to help and preach to others who are searching and less fortunate.
5. if they would teach tolerance and love for all mankind.
OOOOOOOOoooooooooppppppppppsssss.........
Silly me...THEY ALREADY DO ALL THOSE THINGS!
