First, I would go to aomin.org. They have chats which are open to non-Christians like Mormons.
Secondly, you focus on what we agree and you seem to point out that it was the Christians who started the problems. I want to remind you that it is the Mormon teaching who believes that all other churches have left the true teaching of the Bible, this is from their earliest teachings. You focus on what you believe are similarities, but that is less than honest as the differences are ignored and are significant. There cannot be good dialog when the differences are overlooked and there is a facade of "we are alike" when we are not alike. Jesus, for instance, in the Christian realm, is God of Very God, one in the Godhead but distinct as a person. This is distinct and a radical difference from the Mormon teaching.
I have no problem with having open dialog. We have had dozens Mormons to our house for just that very reason. I, though, do not believe a website should be condemned because they have banned someone who does not fit in their doctrinal criteria. I think the greater harm is this post which seems to make light of our differences as though they are not significant.
When you want to make it out like we are alike when there is great theological differences, you show little appreciation for our belief, minimizing it and actually insulting our doctrine. I respect you disagreeing with us, but respect us to not pretend they are not that important and that our similarities outweigh these differences.
Well, this is entirely my opinion through my own personal relationship with Christ Jesus my Lord. I don't believe you should have been banned because I believe we are in a time that the Lord Himself is desiring for His people to come together and allow TRUTH to be unveiled that we can come together and evolve as a people and truly rise up as the remnant and expose the true power of God. I have no reason to be mad with you as a mormon. The only thing I would request as you do appear on Christian sites, is that you stay open to the views and truths that others may express (prayerfully they express it in love). We as believers have forgotten the first two commandments of the Lord God. We have forgotten that besides Wisdom, that LOVE is the principle thing. It is the ESSENCE, the very FOUNDATION of who God is and what He has come to establish in the earth. It was through Jesus Christ that He spread His love abroad to us. Through His sufferings and His rejection we were able to be made whole again and have the capacity to come back into remembrance. I pray that you find a Christian website that expresses the love of our God, through Christ Jesus and gives you the opportunity to be expressive through Peace. Let us as a people show forth our fruit. For this is an hour where if there is not fruit on the tree then we must say as the word of GOD says, YOU are NONE of HIS! God bless you brother. I apologize for my brothers and sisters in the Lord for their ignorance. Let's not interpret the scriptures according to our vain philosophy, but through the TRUTH by the HOLY SPIRIT, let us be as our Savior has been and desires to be while yet operating through us as yielded vessels.

Hey I would not have banned you! However, I also hope I could be allowed to agree to disagree on some major points of doctrine, namely, WHO Jesus is, and from what source do we consider scripture? There are some very dire warnings in the Bible against adding additional writings, which is a huge problem for many Evangelicals. I would think you would bring some good dialog and discussion to the forum. However, I also would respect any decisions made by this website. or others, about what they deem is - Christian. Grace
