Stop lying about Mormons being Christians. It's just sad.

As far as I can tell the Bible does not say that God the Father did not have physical sex with the virgin Mary.
As far as I can tell the Bible does not say that blacks and Native Americans were not cursed with dark skin.
As far as I can tell the Bible does not say that “exaltation” to different levels of heaven based on works in this life is not possible.
As far as I can tell the Bible does not say that Jesus Christ will not return to Missouri.

One thing I’ve learned in life is that many people will interpret the Bible to mean what they want it to mean. Many such people will think that their interpretation is the only correct interpretation and that by the authority of their opinion that everyone else who disagrees with them is wrong.

By what authority to do interpret Christianity to mean what you say it means that Mormons aren’t Christians? I’m just curious. I’m certainly not going to be a vicious hateful person over this. I’d prefer to turn the other cheek if necessary.

Just to add a few to your list Bear...

Christians do not believe that God is an “exalted” man who earned His way to becoming God.

Christians do not believe that God and Jesus are busy engaging in polygamous, celestial sex in order to populate heaven with spirit babies who will then choose their earthly families.

Christians do not believe that once a man has died that he can have a “second chance” at judgement.

Mormon “prophets” have been found lacking in the prophecy category. Too many FALSE prophecies, thus they are FALSE prophets, with JS being the primary one.

Just to name a few...
