What is wrong with Mormonism?

[Solitary]

You are awesome Stromboli! What an interesting history you have. All the friends I had that were atheists were Mormon before accept one. Solitary

Generally speaking I regard all theists as fools who profess to believe tall tales.

But...mormonism far surpasses anything else (expect perhaps scientology) in its silliness and obvious fraud.  It was meant to be an "American" xtianity without all those foreign roots.  The fact that anyone believes such fucking drivel simply astounds me.

I came across this one recently from an ex-Mormon and thought it was hilarious.  

Apparently when good ol' Joe Smith found the golden tablets, he describes carrying them in one extended arm at his side the way a schoolchild walks carrying books.

Gold is one of the most dense metals, even denser than lead.  The ex-Mormon pointed out that the tablets as described by Joe would weigh 300 pounds.  So not only was Joe a prophet, he was a damn strong one too!

OK, How do you know this?

He knows that stuff becaus he used to be part of the Mormon church just like you. He's actually mentioned that a few times.

How does any of this prove that BoM is not true and that J Smith is not a Prophet of God?

Using your own standards of evidence, how would you go about proving that David Koresh and Jim Jones were not prophets of God?

Exactly, So, everything what Stromboli wrote does not prove ANYTHING. It was waste of time and space.

You're missing the point.  If you can't come up with a standard of evidence that disproves Koresh and Jones as prophets of god, what does that tell you about the standard of evidence you apply to Smith?
