As an agnostic...this movie was quite Republican.

I'm sorry what? Come again? Science supports his existence? Well gee then, I must have entered into the wrong reality. That or the whole word has gone insane.

The whole movie just sounds like some kind of horrible Parody.I love how we atheists are considered to be the bad guy in it too, because yeah that's how we really are.We're all dicks, it's not like any of us respect someone elses beliefs or anything.Then yet again.... I kinda am a dick. Whenever a hardcore Christian tells me that I'm going to go to hell, I just tell them that I've already been there and it's a lot of fun, and that Satan is a cool guy and all.They end up raging so bad. XD

XDWhat the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I am the surpreme ruler of Hell, and I’ve been involved in numerous acts of torture, and I have over 98 trillion souls burning for their sins. I am all mighty and powerful in my own kingdom. You are nothing to me but just another guilty soul waiting to be burned. I will wipe you the fuck out with fire the likes of which has never been seen before on the Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am scheduling your departure at midnight tonight so you better prepare for your death, maggot. Your death will wipe out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways bringing you down to my kingdom, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I all mighty and powerful, but I have access to the entire arsenal of pitchforks and I will use it to its full extent to torture your miserable ass in Hell, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking going to hell, kiddo, and I'll see your ass real soon.
I cannot even imagine a single Christian that has ever thought about their faith or read the Bible approving of this movie, so I really don't understand what's going on here.
Even Christians are embarrassed by the film.

Tell them we have texts dating back to 100BC that when translated say the exact same thing we have now. Does the Book of Mormon have God go around murdering those children he made with unconditional love and wants nothing more than to live eternally with them, because they are confused and/or upset with God?

Those who are religious really shouldn't be going around telling others that other people that are religious that their belief systems stories are crazy when they themselves adhere to a belief system that contains stories that are just as ridiculous.
When it's supposed to be a denomination of the same religion, but is so widely different and has stories with seemingly no basis in logic or teaching morals, then it seems more noteworthy to me.The kinds of parables Jesus told in the Bible are one thing, in that they teach lessons and offer moral guidance. However, that same God killing everyone that didn't do exactly what he said, and saying that's where black people come from, the people God killed for being disobedient; that, that only seems to be an excuse to be able to preach racism.
