If you are so inclined, here is an article comparing 1st Century Christian Beliefs with LDS Beliefs.

Here's the FR link to the posting of the 'extra verses' Smith fabricated. And that's just the fabrications in Genesis chapter 50!

Thank you for the link.

So, OK., speaking as a Jew, there is nothing in our tradition--nothing, absolutely nothing in Torah, oral Torah, or in any of its commentaries--that supports men or women becoming gods. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing.

Excellent article. What you wanna bet Assy won’t read it?

The last pargraph is particularly appropriate here.

Having read the linked article (in fact I downloaded it complete with footnotes), I find it almost amusing that Mormonism Apologists post articles like this which have at their foundation the arguments drawn from the very years of The Church that the Mormonism founder proclaimed were an apostasy! I mean, how much credulity are we supposed to extend to quoted sources which have been declared sourced in apostasy?

The illogic in Mormonism is astonishing to behold, especially when the adherents are so twisted by the convolutions that they cannot see the contradictions in the sources they so value, like this article by Peterson w/ Ricks! And the authors conclude that individual professions of 'being a Christian' should be taken at face value yet let the Lord judge the 'isms'. Of course, that is contrary advice to what Paul and Peter and James taught, as articulated in the New Testament writings, where we are admonished to resist the judaizing 'other voices bring' to the individuals, as if adherence to doctrinal additions to Jesus and Him Crucified are essential to salvation. It is so astonishingly demonic in deviousness don'tchaknow!
