Well I think you’ll find that current thoughts and statements from LDS leaders are very conciliatory towards Catholics and Protestants.

As you know I am firm in my Latter-day Saint faith, and I believe in my Church so we are going to disagree on doctrinal matters, but there are many things people of different faiths have in common and by supporting one another in dealing with many of the problems we see in society we can do a lot of good together.

Really? Have they changed the text of 1 Nephi 14:10? Have the missionaries stopped telling everyone that their church is apostate and that the mormon church is the only true church? Didn't think so.

Only by being dishonest in the representation of those doctrinal differences and seeking out the more liberal corners of those other religions who don't care about their own doctrine, let alone lds.

BTW norm, you still haven't answered my question - are you going to repudiate these statements by your prophets and apostles?

Catholics and Protestants worship ONE God. So do Jews.

Mormons have 4 earth gods and trillions of gods on other worlds. They also think they themselves can become gods.

Their polytheistic/henotheistic religion has nothing whatever to do with Christianity.

They do, however, steal the words of Christianity and redefine them to mean things that are not present in the Bible whatsoever.

best,

What they forget Normandy is that those statement are not of the Church itself but of ones own personal point of view.

Like I said the protestants were the ones who spoke this stuff open as late as the 1960’s I should know I heard in my community and preachers on the radio in those days~

Don't forget "very conciliatory towards Islam".

Latter-day Saint Interest in Muhammad

Latter-day Saints recognize Muslims as brothers and sisters, children of our Heavenly Father, with whom we can find much common ground

I’ve worked on the World Congress of Families, where people of all conservative religions get together in defense of the family. Protestants of various denominations, Catholics, Mormons, Orthodox Jews, even Muslims. It scares the Left to death.

Only someone who wanted to defeat social conservatism would try to discourage people of different faiths from working together on important political/moral issues. That’s why I seriously wonder whether some of the anti’s who make a career out of attacking both Mormons and Catholics on FR aren’t actually Leftist plants.
