Wrong, we stopped the Salem witch trials long ago.

Wow, that was stunningly ignorant. How, in your feeble little brain does this even come close to the Salem Witch Trials?

Also, please defend Mormon doctrine of Blood Atonement and how that compares to what Christ has said and has done? How can the two even compatible?

And please explain why it's OK for a cult to claim it's part of Christianity when it goes on to preach another gospel.... Why should we ignore Paul's warning about such cults?

actually "blood atonement" was the mormon church's own version of the salem witch trials and the inquisitiin rolled all into one

in the early days when members questioned this crazy go-cult, disobeyed its leaders, or simply got in the way of more influential mormons, they would be "blood atoned"...

a mormon leader would announce that the person in question had done deeds that would condemn him to hell...unless...

someone cut the offending person's throat, spilt his blood on the ground, and the blood sacrifice would pay for his sin...and the dead offender would be saved after death...

this is one of the reasons mormons have such an interest in silencing the conersation about mormonism...and one reason among many that ex-mormons never, never will be silent...

excerpt from the book "The Story of the Mormons" by William Alexander Linn follows:
