Mormonism is not Christianity...

While Christians worship Jesus as the coming King at Christimas time...and display the Baby Jesus in the manger..

Mormons worship Joey Smith and display a cradle in a cabin for him...Jesus is not mentioned...

Christians sing Christmas Carols...about the birth of Jesus..

mormons sing “Praise the man” about Joey Smith...

And then there’s Easter...

So Merry Smithmas to all the mormons...

And Merry Christmas to the Christians...

So says orthodox Christians.

While Christians worship Jesus as the coming King at Christimas time...and display the Baby Jesus in the manger..

Mormons worship Joey Smith and display a cradle in a cabin for him...Jesus is not mentioned...

You know, I saw that picture the other day. It was funny to me. I am pretty sure where ever that is, that at Christmas time there is appropriate Christmas decorations.

My wife is insane. She has at least 15 or so nativity scenes around the house. She kept about 5 of them up all year long.

So no, we don't worship Joseph Smith. We do revere him as our first prophet and the restorer of the Gospel of Christ. But we do not worship him, regardless of what you may suggest below.

Christians sing Christmas Carols...about the birth of Jesus..

mormons sing “Praise the man” about Joey Smith...

Maybe once in December, near his birthday. But Mormons also sing Christmas Carols. We do have them in our hymnal. I count 14 of them. I happen to have the list of hymns for our ward's sacrament meeting for this month.

Dec 6th - O #203 Angels We Have Heard on High, S - #181 Jesus of Nazareth, Savior and King, C - #213 The First Noel
Dec 13th - O - #212 Far, Far Away on Judea's Plains - S - #O Savior, Thou Who Wearest a Crown - Special Music (mens quartet singing Away in a Manger) - C - #209 Hark, The Herald Angels Sing
Dec 20th - O - #201 Joy to the World - S - #Jesus, Once of Humble Birth - Primary (3songs) - Ward Choir (The First Noel and Hark! the Herald Angels Sing) - C - #204 Silent Night
Dec 27th - O - #134 I Believe in Christ - S - #193 I Stand All Amazed - I - #202 Oh Come, All Ye Faithful - C - #217 Come, Let Us Anew

Sure looks like we sing Christmas Carols. Of course, you have to pretend otherwise, or you wouldn't be able to make these false claims.

Then again, you just admitted that Mormons are Christians, since only "Christians sing Christmas Carols." Oops. :)

And then there’s Easter...

Where we sing two or three of the four Easter Hymns in our Hymnal - 197 O Savior, Thou Who Wearest a Crown, 198 That Easter Morn, 199 He is Risen!, 200 Christ the Lord is Risen Today.

Oh, were you suggesting something else here?

So Merry Smithmas to all the mormons...

And Merry Christmas to the Christians...

And Merry Christmas to so-called Christians who lie for Jesus.
