No. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the 'Mormon' church) simply preach their doctrines and beliefs and let others decide for themselves if they are true. If someone wants to belong to another Christian denomination that is fine.

What are the bad things that they say about Mormons?
Many things that people say against Mormons simply come from someone who is uninformed or has a different opinion. This does not mean that it is bad, but it is often offensive. Those who are uninformed or misinformed often say: -Mormons are polygamist (this practice was banned by the church over 120 years ago in 1890) -Mormons dont believe in the Bible (Mormons consider the King James Version of the Bible as sacred scripture and are encouraged to study it daily) -Mormons don't believe in Jesus (Mormons believe that Jesus Christ is their Savior, just like all Christians) -Mormons are cultish (Mormons live and dress and act just like most anyone else in society. They do not live on compunds, etc.) -Mormons worship Joseph Smith (Mormons believe Joseph Smith was a prophet, just like Moses or Abraham, not a god to be worshipped) -Mormons kidnap, brainwash, coerce, etc (Mormons wish everyone to make their own decisions, and define their standards by Scripture) Those who have different opinions and say things that are offensive to Mormons often say: -Mormons are not Christian (Mormons are not traditional Protestant Christians, but they do still believe in the Bible and salvation through Jesus Christ.) -Mormons are lying (Mormons honestly believe they are telling the truth) -Mormonism is a pyramid scheme (Mormons believe in paying a Tithe and in missions work to gain converts, but believe this is Biblically based and do not seek converts for monetary gain) -Mormons are unbiblical (Mormons believe that they are following the Bible very strictly, but the Bible can be interpreted differently by different people) -Mormonism is false (this is obviously just an opinion, but one that is often offensive to those who honestly believe)
Why were the people persecuting the mormens?
People are naturally hostile against those who appear 'different' from themselves. Mormons are persecuted by people who believe that they are too different to be accepted into society. Historically, the worst persecution was in the 1830's and 1840's, when Mormons were forced from their homes four times - in New York, Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois. Often this was because the local residents were afraid that Mormons would become the majority and sway local politics. Also many people did not like that Mormonism was not a traditional Christian religion. Today, persecution against Mormons is mostly done by those who misunderstand the teachings of the church or by those who disagree with the conservative standards of Mormons.
What is the difference Christian Mormon?
Mormonism is a type of Christianity. Asking the difference between Christians and Mormons is like asking the difference between fruit and apples - apples are a type of fruit, and Mormons are a type of Christian. Like all Christians, Mormons believe that Jesus Christ is their Savior and that the Bible is the Word of God. They have many of the same traditions and rituals as other Christians such as Baptism, Lord's Supper/Communion, Sunday Worship, Easter, and Christmas. Mormons do have some beliefs that set them apart from most other Christians. For example, they reject the Nicene Creed and the doctrine of the Trinity, believing instead that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are three seperate beings united by purpose. They believe that prophets did not end with the Bible and that God continues to send prophets today. They believe in scripture in addition to the Bible (The Book of Mormon). They perform baptisms for those who died without accepting Christ so that these people might get a chance to accept Jesus in the afterlife. Mormons also believe that marriages and families are eternal and will continue in heaven. Check out the "Related Link" below to learn more about Mormons.

What did Mormons believe Jesus was going to do?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and the Savior and Redeemer of mankind. They believe in the Old Testament prophesies about him and the New Testament account of his earthly ministry. They believe that he suffered and died on the cross to atone for our sins. Mormons believe that salvation comes only through Jesus Christ to all those who have faith in him. They, like all Christians, look forward to the time when Jesus Christ will return to the earth, as promised in the Bible. Unlike other Christians, Mormons also believe that Jesus Christ visited the people of the Americas following his crucifixion and resurrection. The account of this visit is found in the Book of Mormon. You can learn more about what Mormons believe about Jesus Christ at the "Related Links" below.

Are Mormons mentally imbalanced?
No not at all they are just normal people that believe in that faith ----- Certainly not all members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) have mental issues. Mormons are just regular people who happen to share a religious belief. The number of Mormons having mental disorders is an equal ratio to those in the general population, about 5 in every 100 people having a serious mental disorder.
What are Mormon's theories?
Mormons don't consider them theories, they consider them beliefs. Or, facts. A lot of the stuff they believe has been proved true. Other things have not been proved, but those who are members say that they feel something inside, almost as if an angel or spirit has come inside of them and made them feel so happy. Many Mormons have escaped incredible occurances because they heard a voice warning them of danger. They call this the holy ghost, and they get the gift of the holy ghost after they are baptized by immersion. Many people don't believe that Mormons are christians, but they ARE. They are very strong believers in Jesus Christ. The best way to learn about Mormons is to go to lds.org, or talk to a member of the church.
