“And all the felons in jail were framed.

Elsie,

long ago while in college, I was in a group that visited prisons to share the Gospel - the one that comes by the Grace of God and apart from human works, unlike the mormon gospel of human filthy rags.

Anyway.

After talking to a prisoner for longer than 5 minutes, almost to a person, they would pause and say...

“I didn’t really do what they accused me of.”

Makes you wonder who might have an incarceration in their past...

Again you miss the point. Wait you don't miss it you ignore it.

Posting ANY LDS material short of a set of cookie recipes is an attack on real historic Christianity.

There is no debate on this. Mormonism is a proven fraud that twists the most sacred of Christian ideas into something unrecognizable and far less sacred, in fact it spits on them in many cases.

Saying “Oh you are not looking with a open mind/heart yada yada, or that this “opinion” or "you are being misled" or whatever while cute does not negate the FACT that the LDS are not Christian and their doctrine insults the savior, which in turn insults his people.

Christians are instructed to defend the faith and call out false teachers and prophets.

And their sycophants...

Baloney. The LDS church IS historic Christianity restored. You might choose to believe otherwise and that is fine.

More baloney. I think I need some ketchup you are making me hungry.

About a PATHETIC, man-made religion member

Wow, a man made religion member, would that include followers of Luther, Wesley, Zwingley, Calvin, Henry VIII, and all the other protestant "reformers".....only and I mean only Catholics are not a "man made" religion members.....we were founded by Christ Himself and as I recall, He was God.

Hum...

So let us see, you are showing favoritism towards the false cult that steals and our Savior and whose founding “prophet” called the Holy Catholic Church “The Whore of Babylon” a “church” that is recognized as being outside the body of Christ by the Vatican over mainline Protestant faiths whose members are viewed by the Catholic Church brothers and sisters in Christ.

And doing this clearly in support of Mitt Romney on FreeRepublic, the site that is best described as "exposing Romney as a bloody liberal" HQ?

Any other sacred cows you want to tip while you are at it?

Go back into your dream world, dude/dudette. One word refutes your assertion: INDULGENCES

Have you ever studied the timeline which tracks the absenses of Rigdon from his Pittsburgh home and correlates them with the “appearances” of the “angel” to the “Jolly Prophet?” It is remarkable.

I am ashamed to admit as a Baptist that the true founder of Mormonism was a renegade minister of my own faith.

BTW, mention Rigdon around well-grounded Mormons and they become noticeably uncomfortable.

Rigdon’s call for a massacre of “gentiles” in Mormon-settled areas of Missouri was one of his more “endearing” actions, along with his rather transparent manipulation of young Smith early on in LDS history.
