I don't think Mormons like him being called "Joey". Even if they are wrong about his divinity they are good and sincere conservative people who don't deserve to be offended.
Joey Smith lived TWO HUNDRED YEARS ago...
Joey deliberately offended Christians throughout his adult life...
To the point of blaspheming the Jesus of the Bible...
and God the Father and the Virgin Mary...
Joey doesnt get a pass...
Being called Joey is the least of Joey Smith’s worries right now...
He boasted that he was greater than Jesus and called the teachings of Jesus abominations...
I doubt if Joey really cares what anyone calls him...
He’s too busy begging Lazarus to bring him a drop of water...
They didn't like being called MORMONs; but now they don't mind it at all. (Just don't call them Flds folks MORMON!!!)
They didn't like being confused with real Christians: but now they want to be known as one.
(There must be a REAL disconnect going on in their brains!)
