Tim + Friends,
First of all, I don't need to look into your recomendations, because I have enough faith in my beliefs(Methodist), to feel concrete that other beliefs morally wrong. Also, if you read more carfully and check your history books you would find that my statements are correct(appling to statements bassed on fact exclude retarded kindergardener, which applies to attitude). My beliefs are based on my reading of the bible a book concreted by the actual life of Jesus Christ, and can be checked by historical document and mention in most of the major world religions. The Church of Latter-day saints, however is based on a single account, and flimsy accounts of bi-standers that do nothing but provide evidence againt the religion, showing you "divine" connection with The All mighty to be a hoax and a lie. Second, the accounts of the Book of mormon show magic colors of changing of skin suspose to happen instantly, and these genetic lines can be traced easily back shwoign their evolution form the biblical account fo the garden of eden (not saying you don't belive int eh garden of eden cause you do). It also mentions Native american incountters with Jesus. which are not mention in any native americna literature or hitorical song. Now don't you think the native americans would rember Jesus coming?
Lastly, Insulting some one on something they can help seems much more just then something they can't, like if he where black, he can;t help that religion you can. So its a life choice and free grounds for trampling. Aslo "dark side" come on you wasted all you time to end like that I mean holy crap.

Oh boy, do I LOVE arguments like this one! Did you know that other than the Bible itself there are no "concrete" accounts of Christ's life? Therefore, how can you know that Christ lived, other than just blind faith? YOU CAN'T. Just because it's "mentioned" in many world religions (because currently, Christianity still is not the most popular world religion) does not necessarily make it true. Don't get me wrong - I am a firm believer in the Bible as well as the life of Christ. There still is no "concrete" evidence that Christ lived, other than written accounts from people who supposedly met him, which became the Bible. Does that mean he lived? Nope. You are just going off what people wrote and said. Where exactly, by the way, did you get that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is based on a single account and "flimsy accounts" of bystanders? Is that not what the Bible is as well? The Bible is simply a compilation of multiple journals written throughout history, the most common being the King James version, compiled by a group of Biblical scholars under the direction of King James. The journals were copied several times each, creating mistakes and through mistakes of humans the books were changed before being compiled. Did you know that? Did you know that only between the Gospels there are discrepancies in each story of Christ's life? About the "sking color changes" throughout the Book of Mormon - now, I know you got that far since I know you actually read the entire book, but did you get to the part where those people died out in the final war in the book, and that is why the book ended? The man who put the book together, Moroni, bore his testimony of Jesus Christ as well as expressing his sorrow in the wickedness of his people, the Nephites, before he died. That is why there are no genetic lines tracing those people. Further, did Christ not perform miracles all throughout the Bible? Who is to say He could not perform miracles then, or now? Concerning Christ appearing to the Native Americans... did you know that the Native Americans never had a written language, therefore rendering it impossible for them to record such things in their literature because it was nonexistent? Finally, because you attempt to insult so often, I understand how it would be difficult to understand the "insults" of which I am speaking. I am talking about those things Tim can't help, like maybe a facial twitch. By making fun of his religion you only make yourself look like you are prideful, which is clearly denounced in the Bible.
