A Christian accepts that the god of the Jews is God, that he had a son named Jesus Christ, who was crucified, that Mary was an eternal virgin and was, along with Jesus, the only person on Earth to have never sinned. Those are the basic beliefs.

You've just shot a huge hole in Gamecock. Mormons would unhesitatingly subscribe to all those beliefs.

“Mormons would unhesitatingly subscribe to all those beliefs.”

Wrong. You must not be a Mormon to believe that. Mary was a human being with the same defects of all human beings, though she was an elect lady. Mormons do not believe she was sinless. Only Jesus Christ lived a sinless life on this earth.

All except that eternal virgin thingy. Mormon’s actually believe that Mary is an eternal wife of Heavenly Father and was the spritual as well as physical mother of Jesus Christ.

Mary has many offspring according to Mormonism.

Show me one Mormon who believes that Mary was an "eternal virgin" or that she was the "only person other than Christ to have never sinned".

Are you a Mormon? Do Mormons teach that? They didn't when I was a Mormon. I didn't subscribe to it then and I don't subscribe to it now.

Do you?
