I don’t really know anything about Mormon Doctrine or Joseph Smith, but I do know Jesus hung out with Sinners some of the worst ones in his days....He stayed away from those Pesky Religious Hypocrites that thought they had everything purrfectly right with G-d.....

“Pesky Religious Hypocrites that thought they had everything purrfectly right with G-d.....”
A perfect description of Mormonism. Seriously. They teach that they are the ONLY true church and the rest of us are apostates and of the ‘church of the devil’. It is all about religion to them, not Jesus.
I suggest reading up on Mormonism. It looks great from a distance but get close and you will see the soul eating maggots.
A couple of great places to start is:
www.irr.org/mit
www.mormonoutreach.org
www.utlm.org
Thank you for those links. I have bookmarked them and will look through them.

Jesus told this story to some who had great confidence in their own righteousness and scorned and looked down on everyone else:
“Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
The Pharisee stood up and prayed about himself: “God, I thank you that I am not like other men—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector. fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.”
But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, “God, have mercy on me, a sinner.”
I tell you that this man, this sinner, rather than the other, the Pharisee, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
(The LORD Jesus Christ, Luke 8:14
