“I’m not Catholic but doesn’t mormonism teach that your church is the whore of Babylon?”

Apparently they do, I have seen a quote were they say that on these sorts of threads.

It was pretty standard fare at one time in the US and certain non Catholic Christian faiths still have it in their founding documents, although I guess it isn’t nearly like it once was.

Although any time I have ever seen that Whore of Babylon/Cult Goddess Mary Worshippers kind of thing on FR about Catholic Christians it came from some other sort of Christian, not LDS.

The LDS have publicly distanced themselves from that phrase; however they do still believe it and teach it (at least at the local level). Most of the more graphic quotes are from earlier leaders - which I can provide.

The public distance of terms like that is part of their trying to be considered Christians ‘just like everyone else’ which started in the late 1980’s.
