From Delphi User:
The bible is not everything God said, nor does it completely agree with itself. (Judas’ death for example)
The Catholics and Protestants have added dogma to the Scriptures.
The Mormons took a bit of a different route, but give it a couple hundred years and all this “You're not a Christian stuff will die out)
It only takes a few days for the FR mormons to start defaming the Bible.
Why is it that the fall-back position for mormons when faced with the lies of Joseph Smith is to start making ridiculous comments like, "The bible is not everything God said, nor does it completely agree with itself. (Judas’ death for example)".
The Bible is the cornerstone of Christianity and attempts to twist that around to include the fiction of the book of mormon will not change that.
The statement "The Mormons took a bit of a different route, but give it a couple hundred years and all this “You're not a Christian stuff will die out)" is very telling....just keep harping on the lie and the truth supposedly will go away. That's why there are 55,000 mormon missionaries out there attempting to kill the truth in the minds of others.
How much longer are FReepers to be exposed to this kind of misinformation/disinformation/outright lying?
Agreed.
Why is it that the fall-back position for mormons when faced with the lies of Joseph Smith is to start making ridiculous comments like, "The bible is not everything God said, nor does it completely agree with itself."
That's because they agree with FLDS/LDS "Prophet" Brigham Young who declared that the Joseph Smith "retranslation" of the ENTIRE BIBLE WAS A FRAUD.
So here we have a cult, who's founder claimed to be visited by 2 gods who came to him upset that the bible had been corrupted and told him among other things to retranslate it. The supposedly corrupt KJV WAS THE REASON FOR THE WHOLE EVENT......Smith "retranslates" it (to do away with the corruption), Young declares the translation a fraud, the breakaway salt lake sect doesn't use it to this day, and now they have the nerve to simultaneously "use" and "reject" the KJV Bible.
Now I know where Harry Reid got his chutzpah.

True or false, There are books in the Dead sea scrolls that were part of the Scriptures of the Hebrews that are not in the Bible?
True or false, The Bible references Books of Scripture which are not in it?
True or False, The First five books of the Bible are called the books of Moses because he wrote them during the Exodus from Egypt because the Hebrews had lost their scriptures, so he wrote a synopsis.
True or false, The Apostles and Jesus Quoted from books not in our Bible.
True or false, The Bible can withstand Scrutiny.
The Bible is the word of God, not all the words God has ever spoken, but his words none the less.
The Bible is precious to me, but I am not afraid to examine the word of God as the Bible itself tells me to.
What are you afraid of Greyfoxx39?
A perfect faith Casteth out all fear.

***It only takes a few days for the FR mormons to start defaming the Bible. ***
When missionaries visited my home years ago it only took two minutes before they started defaming the bible, and they started with Judas again.
I pointed out that Judas hanged himself in an area where suicides often took place, on a cliff over a field(Purchased by the Temple priests with the 30 pieces of silver.. Jewish law required him to be cut down before sundown and the body probably fell to the field and burst open.
But then, it didn’t even faze them as they continued with their spiel.

Oh thats right ...
Mormons believe that Joey Smith is a direct descendant of various Bible characters...
Judas no doubt is one of those ancestors...
and like his ignoble descendant, Joey, Judas Smith also no doubt was a martyr, murdered by a mob of anti-Judas Smithians..
Judas had 2 swords smuggled into his dungeon of course...
and killed a couple of those dasardly apostates as he broke out of the unguarded dungeon, calling on Jupiter, the family god...
Yeah thats how it must have happened...
