I must admit that I have heard some interesting things about your Church's opinion of the Catholic Church. However, I am firmly against believing unsubstantiated rumors and gossip, so I'd like to know more about that from an educated perspective. Unfortunately, as a Catholic there is very little opinion of the LDS Church in general, so I cannot look there.
First of all, major props to you for looking into more perspectives!! I love getting questions from non-believers who have genuine curiosity and exploration of other faiths. Speaking of other faiths, we love them!! We are always eager to learn from others and share joy in fellowship and spirituality. We believe that all on earth are God’s children- and we believe in peacekeeping, loving others, and finding unity in our differences. Here’s a quote from the official church “Topics and Questions” section on the church website:
“The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints does not claim a monopoly on goodness and truth. There are countless people throughout the world who are examples of integrity and goodwill. And true and wholesome principles can be found in various religions and ethical systems throughout the world. Each of us has the right to believe and worship as our individual conscience leads us”.
We do believe that our church offers certain doctrines and opportunities not found in other churches- but that does not mean that we dislike, discredit, or discriminate against other denominations, faiths, or religions. All are welcome in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and all are loved by God!
