The Lds church has never disavowed eternal polygamy

So? If the LDS Church is a false church as you claim, then what they believe will happen in the eternies will be null and void and thus have no impact on you in the here and now or after this life. So why do you care what their beliefs about the afterlife are like when they do not violate secular laws now or in any way create an imposition on you or your moral sensibilites in this world?

Spend your time building up your own faith instead of trying to tear down the faith of others.

MB, you got all that out of C just commenting that “the Lds have never disdisavowed eternal polygamy”

and they havent...

D&C 132 about “celestial marriage” was never rescinded...

Its still part of essential doctrine...

Joey Smith said it was a “new and everlasting covenant”

Since mormonism is based on polygamy, to get rid of it would be to get rid of mortmonism...

The mormon males have to practice polygamy in order to become gods and go to their afterlife...

The mormons claim that their mormon jesus will reinstate polygamy when he returns...

The mormons claim that their mormon jesus was married, and a polygamist...

D&C 132

4 For behold, I reveal unto you a new and an everlasting covenant; and if ye abide not that covenant, then are ye dammed; for no one can reject this covenant and be permitted to enter into my glory.

glory.
5 For all who will have a blessing at my hands shall abide the law which was appointed for that blessing, and the conditions thereof, as were instituted from before the foundation of the world.

6 And as pertaining to the new and everlasting covenant, it was instituted for the fullness of my glory; and he that receiveth a fullness thereof must and shall abide the law, or he shall be damned, saith the Lord God.

20 Then shall they be gods, because they have no end; therefore shall they be from everlasting to everlasting, because they continue; then shall they be above all, because all things are subject unto them. Then shall they be gods, because they have call power, and the angels are subject unto them.

21 Verily, verily, I say unto you, except ye abide my law ye cannot attain to this glory.

Spend your time building up your own faith instead of trying to tear down the faith of others. [MB]

You make it sound like the Bible is all "rosy" about our call to warn others about false prophets & heresies. Sorry, but the Bible discusses some negative things in that regard. In fact, it says we're under obligation to warn others. (See the apostle Paul's warning, for example, in Acts 20)

Since our faith includes the need to warn others, and you oppose that, it sounds like you're tearing down my faith. (So I guess that means you need to heed your own warning: Spend your time building up your own faith instead of trying to tear down the faith of others. Since you apparently believe this as a personal standard...start living it...stop being negative toward me, then...spend your time building up your own faith. If this is your maxim, live it).

So why do you care what their beliefs about the afterlife are like when they do not violate secular laws now or in any way create an imposition on you or your moral sensibilites in this world? [MB]

Because we all have to answer to God one day -- including if we've loved our neighbor with the truth...or withheld it from them out of some misguided sense of shielding them from realities.
