as soon as ANY religion/belief system can prove a God or prove whatever it is they believe, then we'll know. As of right now, everything is a faith, meaning there is a hope based off of information rather than a statement of fact.

See, this is part of the reason I refuse to believe in a religion...There are, what...12 million mormon followers? I refuse to believe that the other ~6.5 BILLION people on earth will go to hell for not believing in something some wacko came up with 200 years ago. By that ratio, that means only 1 in 541 people on earth will get into heaven via following mormonism.

Umm yeah, no.


edit...not to mention the people on the other side of the world in remote regions who would also be banished to hell just because they never had the ability to be exposed to something such as this which formed in the states and primarily has stayed in the states.

because Christ's church was only restored what 150 years ago?? its growing quite rapidly and with over 120 temples WORLDWIDE from chile to japan... and there is a special place in this afterlife for those never introduced to the faith, god would never do otherwise, think about it

also, we perform whats called Baptisms for the Dead... where we are able to baptize those before us who were never introduced to the faith either.

this is what I love about mormons and catholics....always right and always up for a fight about religion and how they are right and everybody else is wrong....and as much as I dislike Catholocism I think I dislike Mormonism even more..
