Kind of like Libtards calling themselves progressives because the term liberal was had too many negative connotations ...

>>>The term “Mormonism” is inaccurate and should not be used.<<<

Might I suggest the term “cult” . . . it is so much more descriptive and accurate!

Wow, another “institution” to be erased in the history books. We have a “Mormon Bridge” here, where the “Mormons” allegedly crossed the Missouri River in their trek west. I wonder it if will need to be renamed?

“Restored” from what? To what? By whom?

I’m not sure the works of God Almighty need “restoration” at the hands of puny humans.

Your first post nailed it. Different name, same scam. More people to fool when they don't recognize the new name.

Exactly!

Look, Mormons have a bad rap because they had bad practices and beliefs. Even though they have denounced those bad practices and split the church, they still have bad beliefs.

Just like homosexuals want to do everything they can to be accepted as “normal”, the Mormons want to do everything they can to be accepted as “Christians”. Which of course THEY ARE NOT. (homosexuals are not “normal” and Mormons aren’t Christians)

Throw around the name of Jesus all you want, your anti-Christ beliefs make it IMPOSSIBLE to be Christians no matter what your name is.

Gone the same way as “white and delightsome” I guess.

Same thing with blacks being recognized as real people in 1978.

God sure changes his mind a lot......

This announcement by the First Presidency will disappear like dandelion seeds in the wind, and everyone will continue to call them Mormons.

The LDS church will change. As soon as the older apostles leave this world, the new guys will fully embrace Political Correctness and Social Justice. In 20 years they will be in bed with the old liberal ‘Christian’ denominations.

When describing the combination of doctrine, culture and lifestyle unique to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the term "the restored gospel of Jesus Christ" is accurate and preferred.

Well, it's NOT accurate even if it is preferred.

Galatians 1:6-9 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.

Actually, I think their new name is klutzy but the whole point is that they want to be thought of as Christians and not as followers of some flake from Upstate New York.

"Please avoid," the style guide states, "using the abbreviation 'LDS'..."

So they insist that you use the full name, which consist of eight words, every time you refer to the church? Reminds me of the story of Tikki Tikki Tembo-no Sa Rembo-chari Bari Ruchi-pip Peri Pembo, the Chinese boy who insisted on being called by his full name.
