Lou, I got into this discussion because I thought it was being incorrectly implied that Mormons considered Judaism an atrocity. I thought that was quite unfair to Mormons. Although I am no longer Mormon, I do not like them being insulted.

I know what Mormons believe, but I accept that you do not believe it. If you google Mormons and Jews, you will see many articles written for a Jewish audience that would disagree with your stance.

"The Book of Mormon even has Jesus presciently condemning anti-Semitism and "replacement theology" - the Christian doctrine that the divine covenant with the Jews was superseded when they rejected him as Messiah. "Yea, and ye need not any longer hiss, nor spurn, nor make game of the Jews, nor any of the remnant of the house of Israel," the Nazarene tells the Indian-Israelites of America, " 1/8F 3/8or behold, the Lord remembereth his covenant unto them, and he will do unto them according to that which he hath sworn.""

"Mormon leaders espoused Zionist sympathies decades before the Jewish national movement was born. In 1841, Joseph Smith sent his "personal apostle" Orson Hyde to Jerusalem, where on the Mount of Olives he beseeched God to "restore the kingdom unto Israel - raise up Jerusalem as its capital, and continue her people a distinct nation and government." Today, Jerusalem's very own Orson Hyde Park sits on the spot of that prophecy, just a few steps from BYU's Jerusalem Center."

You will believe what you wish. But I request that you refrain from stating or implying that the Mormon church is antisemitic. And I ask that Dr. Bob not allow the Mormon church to be miscategorized as antisemitic.

I've provided information on the point. I'm through with this discussion.
