Don't mormons believe they are one of the lost tribe of Israel?

No, we believe we are adopted into the covenant people by the covenant of baptism when we take upon ourselves the name of Jesus Christ. Just as a baby is adopted into a family, with all teh rights therein, we are adopted by taking upon ourselves the name of Christ into the promise that God gave Abraham.

While Jesus was on earth for his 40 days of ressurection, he dropped by some cave in New York and had the book of mormon written on some gold plates in a cave in new york.

Not quite. The Book of Mormon, the modern day translation of the golden plates you are referring to, is a record of the people of Nephi from 600 AD until 400 AD. After Jesus's resurrection he visited the people of Nephi on the American Continents. We don't know where on the continent.

Anywho, I asked the Mormans that stopped by here one day about a few passages in the Bible where it says "and 3000 were saved that day" and a few other things that dispelled their entire religion and they never came back.

I'd love to hear what scriptures you referred to. Please pass them on!
