However, it is very very sad to me that millions of people are are deceived by Satan (who is not Jesus' brother but one of God's angels who rebelled and who is fully evil and is bound for the pit of hell) into following the Mormon "faith".

I actually have no "blaming" for those who are in Mormonism. I have much blaming for Satan and his mighty power of deception.

Just understanding things in perspective! The bigger picture in the scheme of things.

When one ponders so was Cane our brother in the family tree kind of way!

Who was Lucifer/Satan?

At one time Lucifer sang among the Morning stars he was one of the good guys until pride over took him.

Job 38
7 When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

Isa. 14:
12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

2 Ne. 24:
12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! Art thou cut down to the ground, which did weaken the nations!

D&C 76:
25 And this we saw also, and bear record, that an angel of God who was in authority in the presence of God, who rebelled against the Only Begotten Son whom the Father loved and who was in the bosom of the Father, was thrust down from the presence of God and the Son,

26 And was called Perdition, for the heavens wept over him—he was Lucifer, a son of the morning.

27 And we beheld, and lo, he is fallen! is fallen, even a son of the morning!

28 And while we were yet in the Spirit, the Lord commanded us that we should write the vision; for we beheld Satan, that old serpent, even the devil, who rebelled against God, and sought to take the kingdom of our God and his Christ—

29 Wherefore, he maketh war with the saints of God, and encompasseth them round about.
