Hi Saundra,
Understand that to me Mormon’s as people are just people, as good, bad, ordinary, and extraordinary as all of us. There isn’t a bit of animosity towards Mormons as a group in me or in most Christians. For those outside of Utah and a few states in the west, we rarely come in contact with Mormons. Online here at Free Republic, I think you get a lot of former Mormons who had some bad done to them either when they were in the church or when leaving the church, so they may have personal feelings about it. For me, it’s not personal, I just looked at Mormonism as Romney began his run for President, and I realized the extent and nature of the Mormon church as a cult that has lasted over a hundred years. It’s the mixture of lies with the truth that is so dangerous in Mormonism to the individual Mormon, because they can point to good and true things and feel like it somehow erases the false and the harmful. I truly believe, from what I know of the Mormon history, that Joseph Smith with his “seer stones,” false “translations” of Egyption hyroglyphics, 15 or so “wives” (many married to other men as well as him), etc., I believe he was a low level con man that started a small cult and used his followers. So for me, Mormonism is a tragedy, since it is so transparently false given its founder Joseph Smith, and because there is several million modern Mormons who remain fooled by a man long dead. Men won’t become God . . . to anyone, ever. It’s a false and dangerous doctrine. There is one God. There is no one else like him . . . he alone is God. Anway, I hope some day you see some of this and it saves you.
Godspeed.

Like I said you are judging the LDS from your natural man finite mind it is not from the spirit of righteousness which does not even seem to phase you when it is pointed out to what the Bible says!
You know the Bible you claim to honor but seem to pick and choose instead of what the Lord counsel!
Whether directly or indirectly when you call our prophet false and our doctrine from the devil you are calling the LDS fools and liar and hypocrtes!
You mock and make fun of the inherent attributes of the Holy Ghost in how the Holy Spirit communicates with a child of God.
If you only had one in the Godhead the Jewish people would not have disputed with Jesus!
