Thanks for posting — this is good to see. There’s a whole lot that Mormons have in common with evangelicals.
Faith in Christ, Christian morals and values, along with religious freedom issues are all central to our faiths. The more friendly we can become, the better, IMO.
In the faith realm we have virtually nothing in common. You have faith in another Jesus and you believe another gospel. Christians are commanded to separate ourselves from apostasy. We should share the biblical gospel, the only gospel that saves, with Mormons, but we cannot join forces with them.
Hey mormons, get over it already...I don’t know of any one who doesn’t think the people who are mormon aren’t like other regular folks in the world. Some good, some bad...and if the mormons think that these guys speak for me, they’re wrong.
And the interesting thing is the abject hypocrisy by mormons...you all can send out 60k missionaries to tell the rest of the world that we’re wrong, apostate, etc., yet when an evangelical dares to challenge your teachings, wow, look out, thin skinned cries of bigotry and hatred spew forth.
Let’s be clear (again)...It’s the doctrine, false prophets, false interpretations (book of abraham), false teachings, etc....it’s not the people, unless you act like some kind of liberal (Reid, Huntsman, Romney) or play the victim card the minute someone challenges what you’re saying.
Some might argue that Mormons are better than Christians.
Mormons can become Gods themselves, Christians can’t.
