All I can say is that you (and others) are missing the whole point. The Jews are not presenting themselves as christians. The Mormons are. The Christians know they are not. The Christians post official LDS writings and scripture so people can see where they diverge.

Nobody would get bent out of shape if they went about being Mormon and quit trying to take a ride on the “Christian” brand name.

We’d still love them and try to evangelize them.

Yep, BINGO. Its the dishonesty and deceptive practices that have me riled up. Muslems do the same btw, they call it Taqiyya. Just burns me up. Be open and upfront about what you believe and don't believe is all we ask.

We'd still evangelize and pray for etc. etc. but sheez - just be honest for pete's sake!

No, not missing the point, I do understand.Like someone who is 1/8 cherokee proclaiming to be a native American.Or some one who is half black and half white, he would never be labeled a white man for he will always be refered to as black, no matter how he sees himself.Racial intolerance to me is right up there with religious intolerance and I won’t indulge in that.Maybe we need a new word around here, FRinquisition might fit the bill.
