    Evangelicals believe in the trinity (Jesus being god) whereas Mormons believe Jesus was a prophet. In terms of religious doctrine Mormons and Evangelicals are planets apart.

      Only from the inside. Compared to even other abrahamic religions evangelical Christians and Mormons are very similar.

        Yep, as someone raised without religion they pretty all look like the same stupid shit. The differences in practice have a lot more to do with the culture of the area than the text of their books.

      As a former Mormon you are wrong but arguing about what some Christians believe and others don’t is like the stupidest and most pointless type of conversation ever. My point was that they despise each other and you’re kind of proving it

        I just Googled it and it does appear to confirm what I said but Google is not that reliable when it comes to religious stuff. What is incorrect?

          For every person, a unique religion. However, largely they do believe in God, the holy Ghost and Jesus. Their bullshit about the Trinity is just as weird and convoluted as any Christian denomination. I’m sorry I really can’t discuss stupid pointless religious doctrine anymore, that’s about as far as I go.

          My point, however, is that their stupid, hateful asses really should be more closely aligned, but they are only aligned when you look at the people that they hate more than they hate each other. The second they run out of people they hate slightly more, they will slaughter each other out of hand.
