I think the sci fi show of the 80’s with lorne green was based on the Mormon faith. Google it. Today I went to a Mormoun temple to support a friend whoms daughter is about to go on a mission. I could care less what he celebrates on Sunday. I hope people feel the same way of the Catholicism we practice. Everyone was really nice. Its America, the Puritans came here to escape religious persucution.

A “elder” asked us if we are “investigating”. I politley said no. That was the end of it. Nice folks. We were treated with well manors and smiles.

Most Mormons are very pleasant people to be around but that doesn't make their doctrine correct. It's not Mormons we have a problem with but Mormonism. Big difference.

(Except that your Catholic leaders regard Mormonism as a "cult" and many heresies mingled into one...so much for your "regard" for your own leaders)

ALL: Note the contrast of a perspective of "I could care less what he celebrates on Sunday" & whatever nonsense his daughter teaches gullible others about vs. the apostle Paul:

I speak the truth in Christ—I am not lying, my conscience confirms it through the Holy Spirit— 2 I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart. 3 For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my people, those of my own race, 4 the people of Israel. (Romans 9:1-4)

Yes, BSG was based on the book of mormon.
I like the remake way better.
Yes, people are free to practice whatever faith based system they choose.
However, mormonism tears people away from God Almighty to a false god(s).
As Christians we are commanded to call out false prophets and teachings, so posting of mormonism in their own words and own teachings does just that.
mormons in general are very pleasant people, not necessarily because they are but because it is part of their teachings for their taught salvation which is completely work based and not based on Grace.
I love my mormon family and friends, they are however deceived.

So; you're the kind of Catholic that'll send a person away without presenting the TRUE gospel of Jesus Christ.

I hope that 'elder' runs into someone that is not ASHAMED of the gospel; and will REBUKE the false teachings of MORMONism.
