Man, what is it with people's views of Mormons, it's almost the same as Islam? What have they done to deserve this?

Why do more Americans dislike Scientology then Islam? When is the last time a Scientologist committed mass murder in the name of his space alien Gods?

Notice that the results you cite refer to the religion, not to the adherents to it. I've known several Mormons and each one of them is a great guy, the sort you would want as a neighbor and a co-worker. But the religion is another matter. It is a strange mishmash of biblical teaching combined with the imaginative but unconnected-to-reality musings of a young Joseph Smith. The result is an obstacle to the clear teaching of salvation through repentance and acceptance of Christ's atonement for our sins, for those caught up in the mormon web. :-(

And what, besides the LameStream media treatment of fundamentalist Christians, makes them worthy of a 31% Favorable AND Unfavorable poll?

Other than knocking on my door and annoying the heck out of me, nothing. Then again my Pastor was raised Mormon and is what he refers to now as a "Recovered Mormon."

I asked him once what was wrong with Mormons, he said "ask them what ANY verse of the the Bible says." They usually don't know the Bible very well at all.
