Mormons have recently been taking a pounding from the Calvinists/Evangelicals on the Religion forum, I've noticed. It came right out of nowhere. At one time there were zero threads about Mormonism then suddenly there was nothing but Mormon threads. Mormonism seems to have taken over from Catholicism as the Calvinist "target-of-choice", so I'm sure there are some angry Mormons around. However, trying to shut down FR is an insane, scattergun response to the issue.

I guess some folks think they're doing the Almighty's work in exposing what they see as the truth but the "slash and burn" method of evangelism makes me want to run as fast as I can in the opposite direction. It's basically Islam with a "born again" mantra.

Now, if we take Mahometanism during those dark ages, and the corruptions that are so universally prevalent over the earth, and the idolatrous systems of religion, falsely called Christianity, and weigh them in a balance; with all my education in favor of Christian nations and Christian powers, and Christian institutions, so called, with all my prejudices of early youth, and habits of thought and reading, my rational faculties would compel me to admit that the Mahometan history and Mahometan doctrine was a standard raised against the most corrupt and abominable idolatry that over perverted our earth, found in the creeds and worship of Christians – Apostle Parley P. Pratt, Journal of Discourses, Vol. 3, p.40

You really want to compare us to Jihadists ? Do we really have a duty to allow these secrets to be kept ?

Eph 5:11 Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.
Eph 5:12 For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret.
Eph 5:13 But everything exposed by the light becomes visible,...

When I discovered these dirty secrets and left the church they lined up to bear false witness against me in court, in an attempt to steal my daughters. Mormonism is VERY much like Islam in that it does not let you leave.

I guess in your opinion we should all follow our glorious leader, the messiah Hussein, and sing Kumbaya with every false belief that comes down the pike...thanks, but no thanks.

But guess which church's leaders embrace Islam, kiss the Koran and claim Allah= HaShem=Jehova? Stumped?

Nowhere?

The Silent Majority decided to EXPOSE the LIES of the LDS ORGANIZATION® based in SLC - that's all.

Yeah...I see planes flying into Mormon Temples on T.V. And anti-mormon's running into crowded St. George malls....blowing themselves up. And kidnapping's of mormons..then vid's of their beheadings.

Uh huh.....just the same.

Are you nuts!??
