I do wish they wouldn't disrupt my site (yes I said “my site”, this is my 2nd home).

Although, if I was a Mormon, I'd be pretty ticked off at a certain group of attackers who seem to exist just to attack the Mormons.

Sometimes it's like the Christian Crusades in their threads.

You know: I feel EXACTLY the same way!!

 
 
 

http://scriptures.lds.org/en/js_h/1/17#17

  17 It no sooner appeared than I found myself delivered from the enemy which held me bound. When the light rested upon me I saw two Personages, whose brightness and glory defy all description, standing above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other—This is My Beloved Son. Hear Him!
  18 My object in going to inquire 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 wrong; and the Personage who addressed me said that all their creeds were an abomination in his sight; that those professors were all corrupt; that: “they draw near to me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me, they teach for doctrines the commandments of men, having a form of godliness, but they deny the power 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 lying 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, mother 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.”

You mean like a Mormon missionary who spends 2 years full-time going around to the public -- of which in many communities 80% are either Christian homes or have that foundation -- and ensuring that any in-depth spiritual conversations includes a mention of "the universal apostasy" and restoration.

Listen, "restoration" to a Mormon is a code word for the church having once died. That means they are it. They're the only true church in town, in the state, and on the planet. If you don't believe it, go to any Book of Mormon & open up 1 Nephi 14:9-10. There, you'll see it teaches there's only two churches -- the church of the Lamb (which they see themselves as) -- and the church of Satan -- which is supposedly all other churches.

(You don't think LDS labeling all Christians as "apostates" constitutes an attack, or is it you just don't know what they teach? And how are LDS who label all Christians us "apostates" any different than Muslims who label all Christians as "infidels?")
