Please stop twisting my statements. I pointed out that it appears to me that Mormonism is closer to my values than Islam.
I could turn your argument around and accuse you of trying to pimp for Islam, but that wouldn’t be a fair assessment of your posts, would it? So please be fair when assessing mine.

I did not compare Islam to Catholicism, nor reply to such a post by quoting a Muslim calling Jesus a prophet. But this is a diversion.
You have not addressed my posts quoting from the LDS directly that contradicts you and confirms what I have written. FACT: Mormonism denies Jesus Christ and does not consider Him their personal Lord and Savior. Their usage of this phrase is alien to what we understand from scripture, as confirmed from their own prophets. They do NOT possess biblical values, but instead distort every one of them into something fleshy and materialistic.
When Christ speaks of giving up Earthly wealth, Mormons rewrite it to hear that earthly wealth is a sign of divine blessings. When Christ said that we shall be as the angels in heaven after we die, neither marrying nor giving into marriage, Mormons see celestial eternal marriage as necessary to even enter the highest heaven. When Christ said I and my Father are one, the Mormons sat Joseph Smith on God’s right hand. When Christ said that the gates of hell would never prevail against His church, Mormons declare that all the apostles, especially the Apostle Paul, distorted Christ’s teachings and the church fell into absolute apostacy, becoming the “whore of Babylon” that needed to be restored to its true glory by old Joey Smith.
To downplay this, to compare Mormonism to Catholicism without blinking, to compare Mormonism to any Christian denomination on this Earth without blinking, to pretend that they are “close” to us in “values” is essentially the highest level of rubbish.
