“Money and power are mormonism.”

You forgot sex. The LDS church may officially prohibit polygamy but there are still a lot of members that practice it below the radar.

Harry Reid should be excommunicated by the LDS. When the old Rat dies, let him go to the 8th Circle of Hell (Fraud) or 9th Circle (Treachery). Satan will recognize his spawn and will reward him accordingly.

There are no LDS Members currently practicing polygamy. You are either unbelievably ignorant or patently dishonest.

I always thought Mormons were strong in their faith.

They are. See post 29.

Ceti Alpha V Captain Kirk went by it in the old generation. Perfect place for Prince Harry.

If there are no mormons.currently practicing polygamy...and mormons contend or pretend that marriage is forever...then all of those 19th and 20th century Mormon polygamists plus all those 21st century mormons married consecutively to more than one spouse in the temple either aren’t married in the celestial kingdom or are
divorced somehow in the afterlife...either way the Mormon church then has been feeding somebody lies and or pure falsehoods

I used to live in SE Idaho. I personally knew men who claimed membership in the LDS church who practiced polygamy. They did not advertise this fact but it was a fact none the less.

LDS members who deny this are either blissfully ignorant or patently dishonest.

Then all Harry needs to do is flash his TR in his face!

I HAD thought Mormons were good people

They are no gooder or worser than any other group of people.

Though they DO put up a really good front.
