Nowhere on the that site’s homepage does it cite the term “Mormon” - and the only place it lists LDS is where it gives a link to this:
“Catholic to LDS”
The LDS crowd has a history of attempting to recruit Catholics into the Mormon cult.
Excerpt:
The Executive Director and Founder of the Foundation for Christian Studies is Eric Shuster, who along with his wife Marilyn, left the rich and beautiful traditions of the Catholic faith to become members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1989. Before their conversion to the restored gospel of Jesus Christ, both Eric and Marilyn were active and devoted Catholics—Marilyn having been a Franciscan Nun with a bachelor’s degree in Catholic Theology from the distinguished University of Saint Thomas in Houston Texas, and Eric having served in lay ministry and leadership positions in Texas and California. Their story of conversion, along with comprehensive comparisons of key doctrines between Catholicism and Mormonism, will be available in a forthcoming book scheduled for an April 2009 release preliminarily titled Catholic Roots, Mormon Harvest.
Catholic Roots, Mormon Harvest is the captivating story of Eric and Marilyn’s conversion from Catholicism to Mormonism with comparisons of 40 key doctrines between both religions that drove their life-changing decision.

(1) These guys call Christians "Pharisees" on this Web site.
(2) They claim that Jesus is "inclusionary" and Christians tend to be "exclusionary" -- without hardly bothering to mention that LDS consider their church to be the only true church on earth and that everyone else are "apostates."
(3) And, note this on their Web site under "Social Issues":
Instances Where Medical Abortion is Acceptable From the earlier statement, there are exceptionally rare concessions for medically assisted abortions under the following circumstances:
Pregnancy has resulted from incest or rape
Response: (Hey, men committing incest cover up their crimes via abortions! "Way to go" LDS for reinforcing this!)
The life or health of the woman is in jeopardy in the opinion of competent medical authority
Response: (#1, 90% of all abortions aren't done by "competent medical authorities" -- but they don't bother to define which pro-abortion medical authorities are or are not "competent"...also, oh, sure "health" can mean anything...so, just dismember the healthy baby if mom is under the weather, eh?)
The fetus is known, by competent medical authority, to have severe defects that will not allow the baby to survive beyond birth. Even when one of these conditions exists, a medically assisted abortion should only be considered after consultation has taken place between the pregnant woman and the bishop, and there is divine confirmation given through prayer that an abortion is necessary.
Response: (Oh sure, now prayer is introduced as yet another weapon in the war on the pre-born..."way to go" LDS for "spiritualizing" mass murder!)
Unfortunately liberties may be taken in interpreting the health of the mother, especially by clinical experts;
Response: (Nah, really? You set up filters-from-hell as to when to approve an abortion and gee, whiz, it easily opens the door to "liberties")
...however, a three-step process (a filter if you will), provides adequate protection against "rationalization." The process provides a clinical check, ecclesiastical check, and then an individual check—the last two being driven almost entirely by prayer and the inspiration of the Holy Ghost.
Response: (Oh, now we can rest secure: The "clinical check" in most cases -- 90% -- = the abortionist him/herself -- and we all know that full-time abortionists hardly ever recommend abortions...The "ecclesiastical check" is already on record that it's OK for an incest-perp stepdad to take his minor-stepdaughter in for an abortion...it's OK for a healthy baby to be slaughtered...and this is supposed to masquerade as a "check?"...and then on top of that, these people have the utter gall to claim that the Holy Ghost may "inspire" both the "individual" and ecclesiastical officials to say to an abortion-minded mom, "go for it?"
