“...the Catholic Church makes it very clear that Mormons are not Christians...”

I am willing to accept what you and others say and confess that I don’t know every deatil about Mormon theology, but I am also used to hearing Catholics wrongly smeared by the various protestant sects as well - some evangelicals are particularly bad at this. They remind me of Peter chopping off the slave’s ear. So I temper my condemnation with the knowledge that lies go round the world before the truth gets its shoes on. It kind of makes me sad.

None of it serves Christ. You don’t save souls by calling people cultists, tearing them down, and all but accusing them of satan worship. If the Christian Mormon bashers on this thread are right, we have an obligation to work at saving the souls of our lost Mormon brothers and sisters with LOVE like JESUS taught us, not venom like I see here.

Hey, they come to our doors ripe for proselytizing. We don’t even have to go to them. How cool is that?

You want to keep attacking Protestant Christians, particularly Evangelicals, while defending the non-Christian religion of Mormonism.

The Catholic church knows those Protestants as fellow Christians, just as they make clear that Mormonism is a non-Christian religion created by Joseph Smith.

Protestants, especially Evangelicals seem to be doing most of the work to save those Mormons by openly challenging the cult as attempting to deceive people into thinking that they are a Christian denomination, and fighting for their victim's souls.

That serves Christ. Fight to expose Mormonism, not to quiet those who strive to expose it.
