Read it and ask yourself this question. I personally love the Book of Mormon. It is a history of what was happening on the other side of the Earth (America) during biblical times.
It is not a "cult" book and Mormons absolutely are Christians and anyone who says otherwise does not know enough about Mormons to have made an informed decision.

It is more of the same. A book supposedly taken from imaginary “golden tablets ( you will note that term ‘tablets’ are important here), lol The difference is that we know, for certain, the con man involved here. We know when and some of whom created the Christian story in the 4th century but I don’t know if anybody knows everyone involved in creating the first chriatian bible .We also can rest assured that the Mormon book does not benefit from the poor-man’s Shakespearian English from which the KJV benefits.
I can’t see any harm in it; it is just another version of the big three with proprietary passages to support the Mormon claim to Real Estate and allowing fat, aging men to simultaneously marry several 12 year old girls. I found the Mormons to be good neighbors. I also found their supposed reputation for abject honesty to very questionable, especially after the Howard Hughes, Last Will and Testament debacle.

I dislike it.
I did not read the whole book because there are teachings that contradicts the teachings in the BIBLE, the book with Truth. Spend your time reading the Bible rather than the book of Mormons.

I think all religion is wrong .
Is there a God ? .... yes
Has humans worshiped Some kind of god sense the dawn of humanity ?..... yes
Can some one really give God a name ? ..... no , and why , because of the thousand's of other "would be God's" of failed and current religions .
Who writes the Bible's ? .... humans , and if anyone wants to say "God told them what to write" , prove it . And what about the "re-writes" and "edits" religion does every once and a while ? If God told the writers what to write , they're saying "God needs to be corrected" . The Catholic Church has "re-written" the Bible many times and so has some Parodists religions . If God is incapable of making mistakes , how can religion correct him ? Dogma is a humans doing and not God's doing , and if the Bible is wrong , why waste you time and sanity on the conformity of greedy power mongers and scam artiest ?
I say believe what you want and don't hurt anyone . Karma does happen and if you miss-treat someone , it'll hurt you in some way shape or form .

JESUS asked the Disciples who they thought HE was.Peter said "thou art the CHRIST the son of the LIVING GOD."
JESUS said upon that rock(revelation of who HE is) HE would build HIS church and the gates of hell would NOT prevail against it!"
The church was born on the day of pentecost when the HOLY SPIRIT was given to mankind, the church grew under much persecution torture and death.
The Mormons say that JESUS visited America and preached the gospel.If that were TRUE there would have been native American churches to greet the people from spain and europe when they arrived.There wasnt any or a trace of there ever having been native American Christians before the settlers came here.
There was also a guy who was into sorcery and demonology was looking at a book of mormon a friend of mine had at work and told him the names of the books in the book of mormon were the names of demons.
The nail in the coffin for me was when Paul said in the Bible"if WE or an ANGEL from Heaven preach ANY other GOSPEL to you other than what you have RECEIEVED from US, LET THEM BE ACCURSED!"
He said this TWICE!

I don't have time to read the book of Mormons; I'm reading from my Holy Bible every day. I don't see any sense in reading something that I don't believe in.

A false spiritual book.Fails the litmus test of any text claiming to be divine.God's Word[KJV] is 100% accurate and stands alone.False religions add books to their religion to control people.And those people fail to match those heretical books with the Holy Bible.They let their leaders tell them what is right and wrong.

It's just another book, like the Bible that people use to try to control each other.

Sorry, to many convenient angelic interventions at just the right time to erase all of the evidence.
I understand how real something can sound when you have been brought up with it as a child. I was raised Catholic.
Still nonsense is nonsense.
