1. Members of the Church of LDS are counted as members until they are over 100 years old. Even if they are known to have died.
2. Members who relocate from one church to another are counted on BOTH membership roles until the over 100 is reached.
3. According to the website mormoncurtain.com and several others the actual membership of the church is 2-4 million in the US. I have reviewed census numbers for the last census and by doing some simple math using the figures of people who indicate they are Mormon I can not get a membership number of more than 2.65 million in the US.
4. If all of the above is true. How are we suppose to treat a church that goes so far out of it's way to exaggerate members?
5. Lastly, I have been told by Mormons that they consider Jesus their "brother". Is that standard Mormon doctrine?
I ask with all due respect in search of the truth.

If you were looking for the truth, you wouldn’t be going to anti Mormon websites and posting their obvious lies. It’s amazing how easy it is to copy and paste their lies.
I appreciate all the good comments my fellow Christians have posted. The best way to combat the hatred on here in the future is to not respond to it. Can we all agree to that?
