Thats it?
The way you been squeling I thought it might be a biggie,
Seems you have missed the post about "creator"
1) In short Did Jesus create everything that was made? (every planet, every atom HB 11:3)Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
2) Did he create out of nothing or just Organized what already existed?
3) Did others have a part or did he create it all by himself?
4) Did Jesus create Satan or are they brothers?
From a Mormon:
Mormons believe that Jesus, Satan, and all mankind were present with Heavenly Father before the world was created.
If you can clarify here, you can establish your claims go ahead.
As I said before if I am ANTI Mormon then you are ANTI Christian!
There are plenty of others that see this too.
The word "anti-Mormon" is what's called a "thought-terminating cliché," or in other words, an Orwellian "newspeak" term. The purposeful use of a word like this is a subtle brainwashing (or "conditioning," if "brainwashing" is too strong of an _expression_) technique. By arbitrarily branding all so-called "opponents" with a word specifically designed to create a mental aversion, the leadership of an organization cues their membership to subconsciously censor themselves every time they use the word. This is a common tactic employed by authoritarian organizations which seek to reduce the flow of information to their followers.

Maybe a better definition is A name usually attributed to Bible Christians who try to evangelize Mormons. Oftentimes Mormons accuse such people of being motivated by hatred and bigotry.
"Why do the Elders of the Church hold their peace, instead of contradicting the various falsehoods, which are published concerning them and their principles? The answer is, it would require a standing army of writers and printers in constant employ; for no sooner are our enemies detected in one falsehood, than a thousand more are put in circulation by them: and there are many who love a lie so much more than the truth, that we are quite willing they should enjoy their strong delusion." (Parley P. Pratt, Mormonism Unveiled, 1838)
Is this site then calling all those listed in the links that follow Lovers of Lies?
Seems the real problem with John Ankerberg is maybe he really does not have all those degress another Lover of LIES!
This Mormon site calls the Tanners ANTI not because of any UNTRUTH but because the facts they present portrays the Church in an unfavorable light. During the Hoffman escapade it was the Tanners that got it right from the start!
http://www.lightplanet.com/mormons/response/general/Publications_EOM.htm During the 1950s, 1960s, and early 1970s, the Church had a generally favorable public image as reflected in the news media. That image became more negative in the later 1970s and the early 1980s. Church opposition to the equal rights amendment and the excommunication of Sonia Johnson for apostasy, the Church's position with respect to priesthood and blacks (changed in 1978), a First Presidency statement opposing the MX missile, the John Singer episode including the bombing of an LDS meetinghouse, tensions between some historians and Church leaders, the forged "Salamander" letter, and the other Mark Hofmann forgeries and murders have provided grist for negative press and television commentary. The political leverage of the Church and its financial holdings have also been subjects of articles with a strong negative
orientation.
Apostle Oaks " When we say anything bad about the leaders of the Church, whether true or false, we tend to impair their influence and their usefulness and are thus working against the Lord and his cause. In Conference Report, Apr. 1947, p. 24." Address to Church Educational System teachers, Aug. 16, 1985.
So if you speak Truth and it is against the leaders of the church, it is "working against the Lord"?
Apostle Oaks "Thus, if Mormon Enigma reveals information that is detrimental to the reputation of Joseph Smith, then it is necessary to try to limit its influence and that of its authors."
In what ways do you think Apostle oaks would LIMIT the influence of the Author?

DAVEH: Here are two recent ones.......
Then why is everyone witha criticism of the church an "ANTI"
.............and the other is when you implied that I believe Jesus is
not the Creator
.........Both the above comments are in error, and I've asked you to acknowledge such. For some strange reason, you seem to be reluctant to admit your error. That makes me wonder why you would want to continue promulgating these lies. Wouldn't it just be easier to admit that you were wrong? Or....do you sincerely believe you are right in both assertions? If so, then I am somewhat amazed that you would stare truth in the face and deny it.

I have asked for examples of misleading before, you failed to provide them. Your false allegations continue.
Go ahead list all these falsehoods. Or stop lying.
