“Satan has a lot of irons in the fire.”
He does his best soul-destroying work in the area of false religion. Mormonism is one of his better efforts. It’s a killer wrapped in a wholesome, patriotic, family-friendly wrapper with the name of Jesus attached for an extra measure of deception.

eYup, that’s about the size of it.

They want to alienate all the Christian voters....its a hit piece on Romney. I don’t care what his religion is. At least non of the Morman preachers have never been recorded yelling ‘God Damn America. if that didn’t put a dent in the Obama electorate...this hit piece wont either.

It is sooo predictable.
The British Empire's victory over the American Rabble under George Washington ... was sooo predictable....
The Japanese victory at the Battle of Midway in 1942 ... was sooo predictable....
Jimmy Carter's victory over Ronald Reagan in 1980 ... was sooo predictable....
Myth Romney's victory over Newt Gingrich and the American TEA Party in the 2012 South Carolina GOP Primary ... was sooo predictable....
I rest my case ...

At least non of the Morman preachers have never been recorded yelling God Damn AmericaIt doesn't appear that you are familiar with the history of mormonism.
From the moment that Joseph Smith invented mormonism, the leaders have been damning Christians and Christianity as late as the 1980s.
Believers in the doctrines of modern Christendom will reap damnation to their souls.
- Apostle Bruce R. McConkie, Mormon Doctrine, see pp. 45-46
--------------
"...the Book of Mormon remains secure, unchanged and unchangeable, ...But with the Bible it was not and is not so....it was once in the sole and exclusive care and custody of an abominable organization [Christianity],
- Apostle Bruce R. McConkie, The Joseph Smith Translation, pp. 12, 13
---------------
Brother Taylor has just said that the religions of the day were hatched in hell. The eggs were laid in hell, hatched on its borders, and then kicked on to the earth."
- Prophet Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, v. 6, p. 176
---------------
"With a regard to true theology, a more ignorant people never lived than the present so-called Christian world."
- Prophet Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, v. 8, p. 199
---------------
"The Christian world, so-called, are heathens as to the knowledge of the salvation of God"
- Prophet Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, v. 8, p. 171
Every single day, 52,000 mormon missionaries knock on the doors of Christians and claim that their Christian faith is false and the only way to salvation is through mormon membership and arcane temple rituals.

I agree.
We’re not geting a Christian in the White House this election. The question is, “Which non-Christian will be the least effective in furthering Satan’s agenda?”

Well, stated.
Which is why mormonism must be exposed, God wants none to perish.

From the article:
...the acrimonious niggling from both sides over the nature of the trinity, the authority of the creeds...The Mormon author claims to be a temple Mormon. That means to get temple access, he has to tithe. That means he has spent how many $thousands to fund the Lds printed material, the Lds "scriptures," the Lds curricula, the Lds Web site, Lds books, Lds broadcasting material that all repeats the founding Mormon lie based upon the Mormon "First Vision" that "ALL" of the sects' "creeds were an abomination" to the unnamed entities that appeared to Joseph Smith.
So, FIRST Smith labels 100% of the Christian creeds to be an "abomination" -- to be putrid...
...THEN we have a liberal counterfeiter funder who helps to $fund this lie...
...all while complaining that the "authority of the creeds" is "acrimonious niggling."
Well, Rhodes College Theater professor David V. Mason, if you don't want to continue funding the "acrimonious niggling" that the Mormon church has engaged in now for over 175 years in vociferously attacking Christian creeds as being putrid, perhaps you should stop paying for these attacks via your tithes!
(Doncha love it when the funders of this nonsense like to pretend they are somehow "neutral" and "above the fray"???)

So either Christianity is polytheistic or Jesus is not divine... I have never quite gotten a straight answer from folks who follow that line of reasoning, that deny the Trinity...I was aponderin' a quick way to cut to the heart of this matter...you summed it up nicely.
So which is it, James? This Q is not going to go away: Do you deem Jesus as "undivine" -- or is Christianity polytheistic???
By the way, all, this Q works well with Jehovah's Witnesses who come to your door as well.
JWs believe Jesus was "a god" -- but not Almighty Jehovah God.
So you can ask JWs, "Is Jesus 'a god?'"
JW answer: "Yes."
"So Jesus is 'a god,' but not 'Jehovah God.'"
JW answer: "Yes, not Jehovah God."
So how many gods are there?
JW answer: "Well, the Bible says there are many gods; even Satan is 'a god.'"
Is Satan a 'true' god or a 'false' god?
JW answer: "A 'false god.'"
Is Jesus a 'true' god or a 'false' god?
JW answer: "A 'true' god."
How many 'TRUE gods' are there, Mr or Ms. JW?????
(And at that, the JW will usually bail out -- ne'er to be heard from again)

THE
DOCTRINE AND COVENANTS
OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS
SECTION 89
Revelation given through Joseph Smith the Prophet, at Kirtland, Ohio, February 27, 1833. HC 1: 327329. As a consequence of the early brethren using tobacco in their meetings, the Prophet was led to ponder upon the matter; consequently he inquired of the Lord concerning it. This revelation, known as the Word of Wisdom, was the result. The first three verses were originally written as an inspired introduction and description by the Prophet.
19, Use of wine, strong drinks, tobacco, and hot drinks proscribed; 1017, Herbs, fruits, flesh, and grain are ordained for the use of man and of animals; 1821, Obedience to gospel law, including the Word of Wisdom, brings temporal and spiritual blessings.
1
A aWord OF Wisdom, for the benefit of the council of high priests, assembled in Kirtland, and the church, and also the saints in Zion
2 To be sent greeting; not by commandment or constraint, but by revelation and the
aword of wisdom, showing forth the order and
bwill of God in the temporal salvation of all saints in the last days
3 Given for a principle with
apromise, adapted to the capacity of the
bweak and the weakest of all
csaints, who are or can be called saints.
4 Behold, verily, thus saith the Lord unto you: In consequence of
aevils and designs which do and will exist in the hearts of
bconspiring men in the last days, I have
cwarned you, and forewarn you, by giving unto you this
word of wisdom by revelation
5 That inasmuch as
any man adrinketh bwine or strong drink among you, behold it is not good, neither meet in the sight of your Father, only in assembling yourselves together to offer up your sacraments before him.
6 And, behold, this should be wine, yea,
apure wine of the grape of the vine, of your own make.
7 And, again,
astrong drinks are not for the belly,
but for the washing of your bodies.
8 And again, tobacco is not for the
abody, neither for the belly, and is not good for man, but is an herb for bruises and all sick cattle, to be used with judgment and skill.
9 And again, hot drinks are not for the body or belly.
10 And again, verily I say unto you, all wholesome
aherbs God hath ordained for the constitution, nature, and use of man
11 Every herb in the season thereof, and every fruit in the season thereof; all these to be used with
aprudence and
bthanksgiving.
12 Yea,
aflesh also of
bbeasts and of the fowls of the air, I, the Lord, have ordained for the use of man with thanksgiving; nevertheless they are to be used
csparingly;
13 And it is pleasing unto me that they should not be
aused, only in times of winter, or of cold, or
bfamine.
14 All
agrain is ordained for the use of man and of beasts, to be the staff of life, not only for man but for the beasts of the field, and the fowls of heaven, and all wild animals that run or creep on the earth;
15 And
athese hath God made for the use of man only in times of famine and excess of hunger.
16 All grain is good for the
afood of man; as also the
bfruit of the vine; that which yieldeth fruit, whether in the ground or above the ground
17 Nevertheless, wheat for man, and corn for the ox, and oats for the horse, and rye for the fowls and for swine, and for all beasts of the field, and barley for all useful animals, and for mild drinks, as also other grain.
18 And all saints who remember to keep and do these sayings, walking in obedience to the commandments,
ashall receive
bhealth in their navel and marrow to their bones;
20 And shall
arun and not be
bweary, and shall walk and not faint.
21 And I, the Lord, give unto them a promise, that the
adestroying angel shall
bpass by them, as the children of Israel, and not slay them. Amen.

Whatever happens in November, I hope Mormonism eventually realizes that it doesnt need Christianitys approval and will get big and beat up all the imperious Christians who tormented it when it was small, weird and painfully self-conscious. O... K...

That Jesus is one in the Trinity with God and the Holy Spirit, a mystery beyond full comprehension of man but easily seen in its work. Jesus is as was said in the Bible, God, and Christianity is Monotheistic.
So back to you...
What would be your answer...
I asked first...
