3. Presbyterianism does not have any authority from God to teach or do anything else that is or will be recognized by God.
4. Presbyterianism is not patterned after the original Church that Jesus established.
5. Presbyterianism does not give the Gift of the Holy Ghost as described in Acts 8:14-19

7. Presbyterianism does not teach that we are judged by our works.
8. Presbyterianism does not teach that the gospel is preached to the dead.
9. Presbyterianism knows nothing about baptism for the dead.

11. Presbyterianism knows nothing of the after life.
12. Presbyterianism knows nothing of the pre-earth life.
13. Presbyterianism is the philosophies of men mingled with scripture.
14. Presbyterianism practices infant baptism.
That's a pretty good start...
FINALLY!
An actual answer!
Good for you!
Of course all of your points are though the prism of the false ideas and doctrine of the LDS but at least wé got a straight answer for change that is refreshing...
That idiot Joseph Smith knew none of those things either at that time!
For what?
MORMONism 101?
Mormonism is traced back to smith who was not a prophet but who was a convicted con-man and occultist
2. Presbyterianism do not have nor have they ever claimed to have any face to face communication with God.
which of the 9 different stories smith conjured up are you referring to.
3. Presbyterianism does not have any authority from God to teach or do anything else that is or will be recognized by God.
mormonism is that 'other gospel' warned about by scripture. Jesus will tell its followers to 'depart for I never knew you'
4. Presbyterianism is not patterned after the original Church that Jesus established.
Not that the mormon church is either - where are its women prophets? Where did Jesus establish 15 apostles
5. Presbyterianism does not give the Gift of the Holy Ghost as described in Acts 8:14-19
Of course - who laid hands upon them in Acts 2 and Acts 10
6. Presbyterianism does not have living prophets, which fails the Rev 11: 3-13 test.
Mormonism has 'living prophets' who fail the tests of Deuteronomy chapters 13 and 18. BTW, what are your three favorite prophecies produced by monson so far?
7. Presbyterianism does not teach that we are judged by our works.
That is because we are judged by our acceptance of Jesus by grace through faith and not of our own works.
8. Presbyterianism does not teach that the gospel is preached to the dead.
Both the Bible and the bom teach that one only has this life to make their eternal decision - no further chances after death.
9. Presbyterianism knows nothing about baptism for the dead.
As well they shouldn't - as it was not a practice of the early church.
10. Presbyterianism does not recognize scripture not handed down by the Catholic church.
They go back to the extant greek and hebrew MS.
11. Presbyterianism knows nothing of the after life.
They know plenty - they just reject mormon godhood claims
12. Presbyterianism knows nothing of the pre-earth life.
They are in good standing, since the bom also knows nothing about the so-called mormon 'pre-life'. But then since mormon prelife is false, there is nothing to know.
13. Presbyterianism is the philosophies of men mingled with scripture.
And mormonism are the crass philosophies of smith with mangled scripture and bogus revelations.
14. Presbyterianism practices infant baptism.
LOL, from those who practice necro dunking.
