And how do you reconcile your view with the example of Christ who ate with sinners, consorted with known prostitutes, and invited reviled tax collectors to be part of His closest friends?

What reconcile? We are ALL, all of us, sinners and worthy of revile. Yet Christ invites us to His side, through faith in Him.
I don’t judge other people b/c of past or present sins, we all sin, every day. If someone is truly a Christian by their faith and belief (and the LDS are NOT - again I speak from experience), then they will ask God for forgiveness and God will deal with it.
This isn’t about sin with the LDS, although they do not believe they are sinners, is more of a “misstep” or “missing the mark”, and that they can perfect themselves rather than have God perfect us. This is about a religion that will not only not get them to Heaven to become Gods, but will bring down the wrath of God upon them for blasphemy. And their doctrines ARE blasphemy, according to the Holy Word.
Actually, my posts have not been about Mormon doctrine, for the most part. They have dwelt on the danger of being a pharisee when speaking to those we consider spiritually misguided.
