Anti-Mormonism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Anti-Mormonism in Missouri focused on the tendency of Mormons to vote in bloc on such issues as slavery (Mormons tended to be abolitionists) or treatement of Indians. However, most Ex-Mormons, Critics of Mormonism and Non-Mormons are not thought of as Anti-Mormon. Stereotypes and cultural folklore within Mormonism have perpetuated the belief that since the Church organized by Joseph Smith is sanctioned by God, that Satan and his followers seek to destroy the divine institution, resulting in a natural hostility of evil people toward the "true church" of Jesus Christ. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Anti-Mormonism   (2670 words)

The Mormons Mormon young men must serve two years, teaching the Joseph Smith error door to door, or be expelled from their church and go to hell. Mormon reasoning is that, the births of illegitimate bastard children from Mormon multi-marriages are godly. The word "Mormon" was conceived in the mind of Joseph Smith, and given to him from the devil, and is synonymous with evil. home.earthlink.net /~thogmi/undies/undies.html   (2306 words)

LDS Scholars versus Anti-Mormon Critics The second conclusion we have come to is that Mormon scholars and apologists (not all apologists are scholars) have, with varying degrees of success, answered most of the usual evangelical criticisms. The Foundation for Ancient Research and Mormon Studies in Provo, Utah, is the leading organization for scholarly understanding of LDS issues, especially the scriptures. He alleges that Mormons are plotting to take over the country and impose a theological dictatorship. www.jefflindsay.com /LDSFAQ/FQ_antis.shtml   (3834 words)

Mormonism Research Ministry - Articles - Is Mormonism Research Ministry "Anti-Mormon"? We desire to see Mormons come to a saving relationship with the true Jesus of the Bible while informing the Christian Church that, despite the clean-cut family image that the LDS Church portrays, Mormonism is not Christianity. For Mormons who doubt our motivation, we ask how they would like it if we accused their missionary force of the same things we are accused of. While we strongly disagree with the message Mormons bring, we have never questioned the fact that, for the most part, most Latter-day Saints sincerely desire to share what they believe is true with those outside of their church. www.mrm.org /multimedia/text/mrm-anti-mormon.html   (1594 words)

Forums - Anti-Mormon from a Mormon perspective? I think an anti-mormon is someone who spends too much anger, bitterness, war in their relationship to Mormons or the Mormon Church. Anti- to me means I cannot agree with the horrible behavior and the abuse done to someone to discredit them, which has been done. This (Mormonism) is a great place if you want to beat up on the less powerful, particularly women, because they will turn a blind eye, provided you have something they want. www.postmormon.org /forum_vb/showthread.php?t=4   (5957 words)

Whistle Stopper Political Forums - Anti-Mormon Protestors My only beef with the Mormon’s (and it’s more with law enforcement) is that they don’t do more to wipe out the Mormon Fundamentalists who live in small conclaves and have multiple wives as young as 14. It's called Mormon social services and Mormons having children out of wedlock were and usually are adopted by other Mormons. For example, Mormons practice polygamy, and LDS do not. www.whistlestopper.com /forum/showthread.php?t=10269   (1548 words)

a bird's eye view: Anti-Mormon Trump Card III It is true that we believe in the Book of Mormon because God has manifested the truth of it to us through the power of the Holy Ghost, which speaks the truth of all things. To quote a respected archaeologist, "show me a potsherd." Mormons do not have a shred, not one tiny scrap of physical evidence to support their story. Ph.D.s from all the right universities in relalted fields of study, such as ancient near eastern studies, biblical studies, biblical law, ancient languages, Hebrew scripture, mesopotamian studies, etc.) LDS scholars into the historicity of LDS truth claims and scripture that is not even being addressed by Evangelicals in their efforts to detract from LDS faith. fowlesview.blogspot.com /2005/02/anti-mormon-trump-card-iii.html   (2218 words)

Anti-Mormon Publications Anti-Mormonism includes any hostile or polemic opposition to Mormonism or to the Latter-day Saints, such as maligning the founding prophet, his successors, or the doctrines or practices of the Church. The main basis for this judgment is that the Mormon belief in the Christian Godhead is different from the traditional Christian doctrine of the Trinity. Woodbridge Riley claimed in The Founder of Mormonism (New York, 1903) that "Joseph Smith, Junior was an epileptic." He was the first to suggest that Ethan Smith's View of the Hebrews (1823) and Josiah Priest's The Wonders of Nature and Providence, Displayed (1825) were the sources for the Book of Mormon. www.lightplanet.com /mormons/response/general/Publications_EOM.htm   (3659 words)

History of Anti Mormon Liturature Guenon regarded Mormonism as one of the most important religious movements produced by the United States and wrote a report based largely on anti-Mormon sources from various countries. The new wave of anti-Mormonism that emerged in the 1980s is largely different from both secular and sectarian anti-Mormonism, which have existed since the birth of the LDS Church. A Mormon Elder asked her husband for a night's lodging, which was refused on the ground of the illness of his wife. www.2s2.com /chapmanresearch/user/documents/anti.htm   (8267 words)

Answering the Book of Mormon DNA apologetics Mormons (at least those with a functioning brain) are at the point where they HAVE to concede the hemispheric settlement of an empty, unpeopled continent is wrong, period. It is no wonder that Mormon apologetics obliterates itself; for each individual, in the end, has to obliterate him or herself, and obliterate what to me are the miraculous abilities we had even as children to see, to feel, the experience, to love, to weigh and appraise and test and understand. In almost every discussion about Mormonism, it comes down to this slippery slope: believers are forced to admit that the nature of revelation is somewhat ambiguous and open to interpretation, hence, the conflicting teachings of past prophets. www.exmormon.org /mormon/mormon391.htm   (10821 words)

a bird's eye view: New Anti-Mormon Trump Card? She merely makes the anti-Mormon claims, particularly against the historicity of the Book of Mormon in the same paragraph as supposed recovered memories of sexual abuse at the hands of her father, a person largely responsible for battling against such anti-Mormon claims with sound scholarship from his knowledge of ancient languages, culture, and civilization. Her simultaneous hatred of the Church and apparent inability to surmount the difficult task of combatting the solid scholarship in defense of the Book of Mormon have led her to slander and now libel her father with claims of sexual abuse instead. So the normal reasons people would reject libels like this--i.e, the fact that Mormons are generally decent people and they like the Mormons they know and respect their example--don't apply. fowlesview.blogspot.com /2005/02/new-anti-mormon-trump-card.html   (3636 words)

Jon Krakauer At the core of his book is an appalling double murder committed by two Mormon Fundamentalist brothers, Ron and Dan Lafferty, who insist they received a revelation from God commanding them to kill their blameless victims. Weaving the story of the Lafferty brothers and their fanatical brethren with a clear-eyed look at Mormonism's violent past, Krakauer examines the underbelly of the most successful homegrown faith in the United States, and finds a distinctly American brand of religious extremism. Defying both civil authorities and the Mormon establishment in Salt Lake City, the leaders of these outlaw sects are zealots who answer only to God. www.randomhouse.com /features/krakauer   (240 words)

Issue 93 - Salt Lake City Messenger Mormon leaders, however, claimed that since the ban on blacks was a doctrine of the church there was no way it could be changed except through revelation from God. A gray-haired Negro Mormon who may have spent his adult life in careful practice of all the complicated and demanding rules set down by the LDS church stands disenfranchised before the altar where a youth whose beard is just beginning to fuzz may preside. Mormon Apostle Bruce R. McConkie, who was present during the discussions regarding giving blacks the priesthood, claimed that the General Authorities of the church had a powerful and miraculous experience of "complete harmony, between the Presidency and the Twelve on the issue involved." Nevertheless, McConkie acknowledged that there was no vision or voice from heaven: www.utlm.org /newsletters/no93.htm   (8497 words)

Our Thoughts » Blog Archive » Anti-Mormon You’re probably just being facetious, Mark, but in case you’re not, I think “anti” in “Anti Nephi Lehi” is different than “anti” in “anti-Mormon”. Your viewpoint on this, however, may depend on your level of orthodoxy and your definitions of Mormon and Anti-Mormon.

Sharon's Anti-Mormon "Reformed Egyptian" Article Discussed And that is the case with the Book of Mormon, and the 10th statement is the LDS plan of salvation. Jeff states that perhaps the most compelling evidence he has found is that the Book of Mormon's description of the Arabian Peninsula at the time Nephi and his family began their travels fits with the real geography of the time based on recent findings about that area. There are some things in the Book of Mormon that fit with the Bible because I believe the author wanted it to look like the Bible. www2.ida.net /graphics/shirtail/sharons.htm   (1523 words)

Games Mormon People Play This writer was reminded of this maneuver during a discussion of the integrity of the LDS church’s leadership with the Mormon apologist. According to Mormon doctrine, the prime directive of God to Joseph Smith was not to join any Catholic or Protestant church — for they were all corrupt, apostate, and an abomination — but to restore the one true church.

Anti-Mormons Most "antis" claim to be "Evangelicals" or "Born Again Christians." But they seem unaware of the article in the fall 1998 issue of the evangelical publication "Trinity Journal" called "Mormon Scholarship, Apologetics, and Evangelical Neglect: Losing the Battle and Not Knowing It?" For convenience, I will label such a person as an "anti", because their main objective is to cause you trouble. But as usual, they do not read the Book of Mormon very carefully, and they are not aware of what has been discovered. www.whyprophets.com /prophets/antis.htm   (1846 words)

Some Help For Those Disputing the Reformed Egyptian Language Among his favorite passages were John 10:16, with its reference to “other sheep,” and the passages of Isaiah concerning the people on the “islands of the sea.” These are the very passages the Book of Mormon applies to itself. The Book of Mormon account of Lehi’s sojourn accurately describes numerous Arabic geographic conditions, but no scholar in the 19th century, let alone Joseph Smith, could have known of it. Likewise, the nonbiblical name Nephi belongs to the very time and place of the first Book of Mormon figure who bears it. www.nephiproject.com /_disc3/0000012c.htm   (4274 words)

Mormon Apologetics To gainsay means "to oppose or deny, to speak or act against, to contradict, to dispute or declare false."

Masonry and the LDS Temple And anti-Mormons are virtually silent on the numerous differences between Masonry and LDS temple rites. According to the critics, the parallels supposedly prove that LDS temple ceremonies and symbolism are occultic and Satanic, and were for the most part plagiarized from Masonry, while the changes supposedly show the endowment to be a man-made product subject to the opinions and whims of the Mormon leadership. Although there are some similarities between Masonry and the Mormon temple, there are also many differences. www.lightplanet.com /mormons/response/qa/temple_masonry.htm   (3943 words)

Alma 2 Nephi defended his people with his own arm (Jacob 1:10), as did Zeniff (Mosiah 9:16) and Benjamin (Words of Mormon 1:13). There are references to units of fifty (see Mosiah 11:19), thousands (see Alma 43:5; 60:22; 3 Nephi 3:22), and ten thousand (see Mormon 6:10-15). And thus ended the seventh year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi; and there was continual peace in all that time. www.highfiber.com /~nahualli/LDStopics/Alma/Alma2.htm   (3943 words)
