NAME these posters you claim "posted false statements".
QUOTE the "false statements they posted".
LINK to it or admit you just don't like the light of truth shining on mormonism and revealing it as anti-Christian.

svcw -
I have an idea TPPole, name one inaccuracy, just one that has ever been posted on FR, morons LOVE to make the claim YET never provide and example. It would be wonderful if just once a moromn would back up their bogus claims.

Heck, I don't even need to leave this thread to do that.

#71 by Tennessee Nana -
What was [Romney] doing even driving when Mormon boys on Evangalical trips are not allowed to drive ???

"Not allowed to drive" is a pretty clear statement. No qualifiers.

In #84 I requested a reference for this false statement.

In #88 Tennessee Nana posts -
Lets see if we can get someone to post us the list of do nots

I said “Mormon boys on Evangalical trips are not allowed to drive”

Lets see what number rule that one is...

And, in #184 svcw posts the so-called list of rules, and prefaces it with the following -
These are the rule for mormon missionaries.
Notice several references to not driving.

Here are the rules that deal with driving:

36. Do not go on road trips.
147. Do not drive without a license.
148. Drive only Church-owned vehicles.
149. Do not drive members’ cars.
150. Do not drive nonmembers’ cars.
151. Do not give rides to members or investigators in Church-owned cars. (A few investigators have asked me why the missionaries are reluctant to offer them a ride to church. The answer: giving rides is against the rules).
152. Use cars only on approved mission business.
153. Use cars only within the assigned geographical area.
154. Be conscious of safety at all times.
155. Drive defensively.
156. Wear your seat belt.
157. Pray for the Lord’s protection while driving.
158. If your companion is driving, assist him or her.
159. Do not tamper with the vehicle’s odometer.

Nope, don't see the "not allowed to drive" rule. I see that they are only allowed to drive mission cars on approved mission business. But clearly they are allowed to drive.

So, does this meet your qualifications, or are you going to move the goalposts?

More, you say?

OK. In the case of Mormonism, the Book - Doctrines and Covenants, one of their prophets says that Jesus Christ only died for the sins of Adam, for everybody else he only shows the "way of salvation". That is, that Christ did not die for anyone else.

Nope, that's not true. Although to be fair, when challenged a quote was provided, but it was not from the Doctrine and Covenants.

More?

JS was escaping from jail, after guns were smuggled into him and he killed two people before escaping and then was shot because he refused to stop.

Even more?

the RITUAL [baptism for the dead] that MORMONs perform in their Temples? I can NOT find that requirement in ANY of the MORMON scriptures.

OK, this one might not be a "false statement." It could be that she hasn't looked. But it is in there - even in the Bible.

There is no offering plate, at tax time you bring your 1040’s to the bishop, he calculates 10% of your income and you pay up. . . There is no redemption for sin in the Mormon church, Christ serves as an example of a perfect man, not a divine deliverer.

Out of respect for this poster's request, I am not pinging him to this response.

And countless others. Didn't bother looking for the "Mormons don't sing Christmas hymns" or "Mormons don't sing Easter hymns." And these are just the straight up false statements.

Then there are tons of innuendo and half-truths. Like the recent "Romney killed someone while he was driving just like Kennedy." Um, no, not really.
