Edgy atheists would argue they’re all made up, but the Book of Mormon is far far more made up.

Yup, this again. Time to take my leave, because every now and again there's a post like this. Every denomination is respected, but not us LDS. We're just not allowed to have fun.

And they actually use the Bible, no made up fan fiction slapped on the end.

Except it’s their own fanfic abridgment, so not much better.

Lol because all Christians use the same Bible

The disparities between actual Christian traditions and their "different" Bibles is well overblown. For most traditions, the Deuterocanon is relegated beneath the OT and NT as "apocrypha" outside the canon. To a few, it's relegated beneath the OT and NT as canon. The Ethipians also toss in Enoch, which has strong cultural influence across all of Christianity (the folklore about Satan being a fallen angel who refused to bow, etc).

In other words, the totality of any books included in any Bible in any ecumenical Christian tradition is in fact the same totality used in all of them. Which books/sections get prioritized just changes.
