      Funny because for years our Prophets taught that the “Catholic Church was the whore of the Earth”. Hard to believe people don’t like us when we were taught things like this. Yes, things have changed in the last 10 years. But people tend to take offense when we claim that they are in the wrong religion and don’t have the fullness of the gospel.

      Our stake was organizing a community emergency preparedness fair, and we invited several other churches to join us. Originally our plan was to have the event at a local park, and they were all on board to join in, but permitting costs and other related expenses necessitated that we moved it from the park to the stake center parking lot. As soon as we notified them that it was necessary to change the venue, they all dropped out completely. We never mentioned religion at all, just that the stake center didn’t require the costs and permits that the park did require. It was sad they dropped out, because it was a big success and ended up in the community newspaper.

    In a word, Priestcraft. The reason the Evangelical Community hates the Latter-day Saints so much is because they are taught to by their leaders. And the reason their leaders hate us is because we threaten their livelihoods. The Catholic Church, for example, is a bit different. It has old money. There are bigger cultural differences between us and, say Muslims, that prevent them from being converted and leaving in droves. But Evangelicals in the US are very similar to us culturally. They could easily cross the line and become members of our faith if they weren’t actively taught to hate us. And its not hard to see why. The Non-denominational church down the street goes out of business is they lose their members to us.

    I am a Former Evangelical Pastor, who studied the Bible, preached Salvation by grace through Jesus Christ, and i got paid a salary for serving in the Church. Most of all, as a Pastor, we were trained and taught that we should hate the Mormons. If not for a neighbor who is a Latter-day Saints, though inactive and seldom go to Church, the Lord has mysterious ways in converting me to His Restored gospel of Jesus Christ and in the Book of Mormon. Im am very knowledgeable and well equipped with the Bible, but the Lord made me fool when i saw the fruit of the Spirit in a inactive Latter-day Saints. Im not suggesting members of the LDS should go inactive to convert a Pastor, but if a Apologetic member debates on me, i will not be humble enough to know the truth from the Holy Ghost. It is the Spirit the converts, not the human flesh.

      I think we do an effective job at the official level, but have generally been unsuccessful at the grass roots level. While I do take the internet to be cross-sections of the most extreme positive and negative ends of the propaganda spectrum, the amount of antimormon content is oppressively huge. If you post a publicly visible Conference talk on Facebook or X, the Evangelical troll mafia comes out to play in force, followed by the atheists and antagonistic exmormons.
      The online space isn't the only space that has problems, interfaith conferences still have issues with having the "Mormons" there, with Evangelical organizations usually being the objectors. The Fairview Temple as well as other Temples building projects that rouse objections are another example of our lack of success in having a sufficiently friendly public face.
      As I've been learning about the history of anti-mormonism, I don't think we've made much progress at all, except at the highest levels of relations. We are still misrepresented horribly, easy targets and considered to be type of religious pariah by almost everyone. When I dated a non-member a number of years ago, all of her friends were horrified that she was dating a Mormon, and made her promise not to become one, as if that was so horrible. That's an anecdote, but I'm relatively sure, there is nothing we can do on the grass-roots level. it appears to be the destiny of the Church to be hated, derided and under-rated.

    Moved into a new neighborhood years ago. Met our first neighbor and she asked if we went to church. We said we do. Then she asked which one do you attend? We responded that we attend and belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and that you might also know us at Mormons. Her face just went pale and she said “oh”. Suffice to say she avoided us until they eventually moved years later. Nevertheless, I feel this is on the leaders and pastors of these people and that this is where the unfortunate narrative about the LDS church is coming from. Who has the most to lose if Joseph was really the Prophet of the Restoration? Yep, priestcraft is obviously alive and well it appears. Perhaps this is what is meant that their hearts are far from the Lord. So sad that it causes many professed Christians to perceive their fellow brothers and sisters on very unloving ways.

Her response was “Well I am not the one to judge that.” Another time she asked me if I have accepted Christ as my personal Savior. Without hesitation I answered yes. Her reply to that was, “but how?” I don’t remember what I said, but it was something like does it matter? She didn’t like that answer.

    Let me share One reason it’s Important to use the correct term when it comes to the church and stop using the term “Mormon” :
    If one call themselves a Mormon, and then leave the church they are called Xmormon or in other words anti Mormon
    If they call themselves a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and then leave, then it stands to reason they would be called x…. Then take the name of the person whose church it is and insert…. So…. X ״christ״…. Or in other words ANTICHRIST.
    those who have left it or are fight against it are masking the spirit of antichrist with that term….and people cannot see that it is running rampant thus fulfilling prophecy of antichrist in these last days.
    Now this is a bold claim right… and I may offend some who love the term Mormon and still want to use it… as you guys are… well I just simply say… if this church is Christs then call it by his name. Period. Then it will be clear who is working against him with the spirit of antichrist. Plain and simple.
    Mormon is a masking term for that spirit. And before you go telling me that we have used that term for 200 yrs well that was a nick name given by those who would hate and kill us. Instead of fighting we allowed it. Now as the end draws near… it’s time to use the correct name… boldly and unapologetically denounce the term given by the deceiver. We are members of the church of Jesus Christ… we are his Latter Day Saints. Those who profess to know his name but their hearts are still linked to Mormon are a tell tale sign of who you list to obey.

    We are taught to respect the beliefs of others!
    "We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and ALLOW ALL MEN THE SAME PRIVILEGE, LET THEM WORSHIP HOW, WHERE, OR WHAT THEY MAY." - 11th Article of Faith
    This is exactly what Christ taught us when he said to love one another.

      @@wes2176 Actually for evangelicals , it's the lack of concern for money and the spreading of the good love of God that they support. Wes's comments are more proof how truly far from God he is.
