This question was asked and there are sooooooooooooo many incorrect statements on what mormons believe it is just amazing to me.
If you dont know what mormons believe why do you answer the question?
If you really think that is what mormons believe will you at least realize that you have their beliefs wrong?

if I really think the answerer just sincerely didnt know then its no big deal
A lot of times people makes snide rude untrue comments about mormon beliefs just to be jerks
Then there are people that really think this is what mormons believe even after we tell them it isnt what we believe and I dont know what to say to those people, lol.

The first rule of YA is that you must never let your own ignorance stand in the way of expressing your opinion about everything.
BTW--why would anyone come to YA to get the facts about what Mormons or any other religion believes?

Perhaps, dear one, some of the people 'thought' they knew what the Mormons believe. After all, most people have misconceptions of Lutherns, Methodists, Asembly of God, Catholics, etc.. It's not that they are trying to spread wrong teachings, it's just that they've been told certain things and they have no reason to believe otherwise. If you are Mormon, and you are unhappy with some of the answers, why don't you show some grace and list what the Mormons believe and practice. This is your opportunity to teach. Grasp it! Jesus always sat down with the people and taught. You have an audience.......... Blessings.

What if the word "mormons" was replaced by "Jehovah Witnesses" in that question? Would it bother you as much then?

They believe their own "leaders" (why would they lie?) and they are told that we Mormons lie about what we believe, in order to "sucker" them into our church.
