That's entirely understandable. I just wouldn't expect any answers from Mormons here with how it is phrased now, unless it's to complain about how you're a big meanie or "that's not official doctrine" or any of the many, many other 'hits' (dodges) we frequently have recited at us whenever we post something Mormons don't like.
Wow, calm down. Typing on my phone auto corrected to John, so be careful in your tone. Secondly I'm very aware that there many non-biblical teachings by the LDS, I'm a non-denominational protestant, and all I was saying is that I'm not versed enough in the specifics to point them out; and to be fair neither have you.First off, it’s Joseph Smith and not John.
Secondly, the LDS Church contains many unorthodox teachings.
The thread is featured so you’d think that some Mormons would answer here.

The tone you are putting out doesn't exactly seem to draw out much discussion. You seem bent on attacking, not debating, so I'm not really surprised you aren't getting replies. Maybe start with what you KNOW and ask questions/refute those teachings from a biblical perspective and then engage in a dialogue. For example, you provide the biblical reference that we will not be married nor given in marriage, I agree. But you state LDS insists on saying this isn't true...where is your reference for this, what book (chapter and verse) do they use for this, what is your source material for your statement? Engage with others, do not attack.
i'm actually interested in what a Mormon would have to say on the passage.
let's hear it..
Exactly where did I criticize anyone, except for the fact that I was griped for an auto correct? I merely pointed out the FACTS that the OP DID NOT provide a basis for an accusation he made. And I believe I already pointed out I don't know specifics about Mormonism. So thanks for not reading that part of what I already said.Don't criticize other Christians who post here. You don't know enough about Mormonism and Mormons to do that.

Not likely.
Not only does the Bible state when a marriage ends, so do the marriage vows.
Well I find it disturbing that I’m receiving no answer here. I take it that the LDS have no answer to my question.
I hardly can see how quoting a scripture is “throwing rocks”. I have a feeling you are claiming this because you have no valid response to either the passage or the thread.
Solomon, LDS rarely answer our questions. They generally don't come here to defend their faith.
Robert L. Millet speaking to the Mission Prep Club:
"We aren't obligated to answer everybody's questions."
"You already know more about God and Christ and the plan of salvation than anybody who will attack you."
"Answer the question they SHOULD have asked."
"Answer the right question."
"We never provide meat when milk will do. (He repeats this a couple of times.)"
Robert L. Millet (born December 30, 1947) is a professor of ancient scripture and emeritus Dean of Religious Education at Brigham Young University (BYU) in Provo, Utah.
