On 25 March 2007, evangelical Christians are distributing a new anti-Mormon video to thousands of homes across the United States. Though it purports to be an objective Christian evaluation of the teachings, history, and beliefs of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, it contains much that is inaccurate and very little that is balanced. Rather than focus on what they believe, the video's producers have taken it upon themselves to describe and interpret LDS beliefs and teachings, often in ways that would be objectionable or unrecognizable to Latter-day Saints. FAIR has prepared a point-by-point response to the claims made in the video.

50 Questions—50 Answers

Anti-Mormon attacks usually repeat the same tired arguments over and over again. Despite the fact that virtually all the attacks and questions have been answered decades ago, new publications simly repeat the old themes as if there had been no reply.

Some anti-Mormon ministries are using a list of "50 Questions" which they seem to think are difficult for Latter-day Saints to answer. One ministry seems to suggest that such questions are a good way to deceive Latter-day Saints, since the questions "give...them hope that you are genuinely interested in learning more about their religion."

This ministry tells its readers what their real intent should be with their Mormon friend: "to get them thinking about things they may have never thought about and researching into the false teachings of their church." Thus, the questions are not sincere attempts to understand what the Latter-day Saints believe, but are a smokescreen or diversionary tactic to introduce anti-Mormon material.

The questions are not difficult to answer, nor are they new.
