Let’s be real, FR has taken on an anti Mormonism trend and there is no flood of Mormons pushing their faith here. Not saying there are not a few.

Well then you are not aquainted of history here williams in spite of when you signed up. Over 5 years ago, mormon posters were all over the religion forum and about 5 years ago Christians began to counter their messages. The mormons even announced a campaign to 'hose the pigs' (refering to the Christians) to silence us. It failed. They then went to abusing the Caucus and Ecumenical tags to continue their attacks on Christianity. It reached such a point of abuse that JR abolished it for them.

The anti-mormonism bleat is commonly used by those who don't bother to really read the articles posted. If they did, they would see that those posts commonly cite mormon sources themselves. Essentially, mormon sources are the anti-mormonism.

Where can we find an 'OFFICIAL MORMON' teaching website??
Official sites are sites supported by LDS officials unless said official sites are considered unofficial by said officials.
 
At that point such sites are unofficial unless officially referenced for official purposes by officials who can do so officially.
 
This should not be misconstrued as an indication that official sites can be unofficially recognized as official nor should it be implied that unofficial sites cannot contain official information, but are not officially allowed to be offical despite their official contents due the their unofficialness.
 
Official sites will be official and recognized as official by officials of the LDS unless there is an official reason to mark them as unofficial either temporally or permanently, which would make the official content officially unofficial.
 
This is also not to imply that recognized sites, often used on FR by haters and bigots cannot contain official information, it just means that content, despite its official status, is no longer official and should be consider unofficial despite the same information being official on an official site elsewhere.
 
Even then the officialness my be amended due to the use of the unofficial information which may determine the officialness of anything be it official or unofficial depending on how and where it is used officially or unofficially.
I hope this clear things up for the lurkers out there.
The haters tend to make things complicated and confusing when it is all really quite crystal clear.

Absolutely correct. The poor Mormons run into a brick wall by saying they believe the bible and Mormon sources and put those sources on an equal footing with the bible, only to be shown time after time that their sources contradict the bible. They'd probably fare better if they tried to stick with their Mormon sources, claiming they over ride the bible, except for the fact that no one, other than another Mormon might buy into that fallacy.

It's a false religion based on the lies of a con man who called himself a "prophet". Our Church bible study group is currently studying the Book of Jeremiah, now there's a Prophet!.
