What were you, a mormon, doing in those churches? :)
I would suspect that in certian areas in the south and in places where a lot of Mormons live that preaching against Mormonism does happen.
But I have never seen or heard it. It is not a standard practice of most churches. What the author of this thread wrote just isn’t true.
There has been in our foyer are on the 3rd flood where the chapel is folks who have drop off flyers or pamlets which were anti LDS on our lamp tables.
We have had a few with signs standing in from on Sunday trying to intimidate.
Since the early eighty our region was trying to build a Temple in areas that was still not build up like wide open field etc. and we keep getting oppositions by the professional propagators.
So Our Prophet knew it was urgent that we have a temple and decided to build about our Chapel in NYC.
There was some opposition but the Utah crowd did not have much voice until open house which they were there camped out doing their thing and how did we know because they are familiar their photos have been taken in different location that they have showed up!

My mom and Dad were Methodists before they joined, and we had to go with my Grndma and uncles and stuff when we went to visit, so I was “Exposed” early. Had discusions about diffrent religions with my Mom and Dad, so they knew I would not be blind sided by any thing. I never got used to brining money tochurch to put int eh plate, it seemed kind of strange.
My mom and dad did not worry about me going, They knew I had a testimony of my own. I had a deal with smoe of my friends, I would go with them to church one week, they would come to church with me tha next (the had no ieda that Mormons went to church for three hours LOL)
I have seen it myself as well, even as an invited guest into one of these Churches, they knowing full well who I was ( a missionary) it was publicly taught that we were a cult. I think it definitely happens more in places where LDS conversions are higher. Hey, look at this very thread and the many many anti Mormon posts here, and try to imagine it not happening in places where LDS conversions are reducing numbers at some of these other Churches.
