And I can't stand it when the TRUTH is told about them and the LDS members get their noses out of joint!

Anyone who reads your posts and thinks you are telling the truth in an unbiased and forthright manner does not belong in our church anyway. (read that however you want.)

Since we seem to be posting opinions on this thread:

I think anyone who posts in a derogatory way about another religion is behaving like a Jackass, and cannot have the true love of Christ in his or her heart.

IMHO, those who attack us unmercifully do themselves more harm than us and don't hurt our church at all, actually, they make people curious.

This opinion is not aimed at any one poster, but at Mormons and Anti-Mormons alike. Don't attack other peoples sincere belief, you look like a jerk when ever you do and drag down your own position.

"Anyone who reads your posts and thinks you are telling the truth in an unbiased and forthright manner ..." DU quote regarding your posts.

Gee, Elsie, I guess you better stop posting those long portions from the standard LDS 'scriptures' and quotes from Mormon founders 'cause you are now accused of not telling the truth posting their online documents. Bwahahaha, don't ya just love the convolutions some folks can take. Next thing they will claim the Joe Smith fabricated portions of Genesis I lift from their own websites are not true! LOL

I agree whole heartedly!!!

  17 It no sooner appeared than I found myself ^adelivered from the enemy which held me bound. When the light rested upon me I ^bsaw two ^cPersonages, whose brightness and ^dglory defy all description, ^estanding above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other—This is My ^fBeloved ^gSon. Hear Him!

  18 My object in going to ^ainquire of the Lord was to know which of all the sects was right, that I might know which to join. No sooner, therefore, did I get possession of myself, so as to be able to speak, than I asked the Personages who stood above me in the light, which of all the sects was right (for at this time it had never entered into my heart that all were wrong)—and which I should join.

  19 I was answered that I must join none of them, for they were all ^awrong; and the Personage who addressed me said that all their creeds were an abomination in his sight; that those ^bprofessors were all ^ccorrupt; that: “they ^ddraw near to me with their lips, but their ^ehearts are far from me, they teach for doctrines the ^fcommandments of men, having a form of godliness, but they deny the ^gpower thereof.”

  20 He again forbade me to join with any of them; and many other things did he say unto me, which I cannot write at this time. When I came to myself again, I found myself ^alying on my back, looking up into heaven. When the light had departed, I had no strength; but soon recovering in some degree, I went home. And as I leaned up to the fireplace, ^bmother inquired what the matter was. I replied, “Never mind, all is well—I am well enough off.” I then said to my mother, “I have learned for myself that Presbyterianism is not true.”
