You should study the mormons. Most people here at FR don't have a clue what they believe.

I don't care what they believe, as long as they inculcate good personal and civic values. This is about the public square, not about who gets the keys to heaven and who does not. I am not going to heaven, and sometimes, assuming there is a heaven, that gives me great pleasure. I don't want to rub shoulders with some that are confident they will be admitted.

Where does your knowledge of Mormons come from?

Do you personally know any Mormons?

Southern Baptist see the Mormons as a cult. What can I say. I have to stand up for my beliefs.

Maybe you as a Southern Baptist see the Mormons as a cult, but I as a Southern Baptist do not! Don't drag the rest of us down with you. While there are some in the SBC who label Mormons as a cult, the official position of the SBC is that the LDS is merely not orthodox Christianity.

OTOH I did find this Mormon PDF at the NAMB website, which clearly defines Mormons as a cult. But you might want to keep in mind they also list Independent Baptist Churches as cults also. It seems everything is a cult to missionaries.

I am as about as clueless as you can get about what Mormons believe. But I do know that they are not strapping bombs onto themselves to do us in, and if they aren't out to harm me, I will repay them with the same courtesy.

The only thing they have that is right is polygamy. Thank God that you don't have to be a Mormon to be a Polygamist.
