Who says Mormons aren't Christians?

You are allowed to make up any story you wish. You see, it simply doesn't matter. The point is we are allowed to believe anything we wish, you are too. And I would fight for your right to believe in the FSM, if that was your wish. And to live according "to the dictates of your own conscience..." And since my church IS the antithesis to some belief structures out there, we expect some pushback. It's no big deal.

Oh. I get it. Anything we say that is uncomfortable for you, regardless of its veracity, is a "lie."

So this non-response brings me right back to your original post - why respond at all to what is posted if all you say is that "it's a lie."

It's quite a matter of truth that your cult is not beyond lying itself if necessary. Your revered leader Boyd himself once said that "some things that are true are not necessarily useful."

Is that what you call a "lie?" - Those truths that aren't useful?

You are simply a 'mocker' of 'Spiritual Truth', you know not, God
the Father, or, His Son, Jesus Christ.

Mormons are mormons believing in john smith and some man they call a modern day prophet. They bible does not mention this prophet at all. Nothing but a bunch of lies.

A couple of truly classy and intelligent comments here, dude. By the way, it's Joseph. Not John. And until you can come up with something better, save your breath.

Dear fedup, those are truly a couple of classy and intelligent comments. BTW, it's Joseph, not John. And until you can get your facts straight, dude, you might as well save your breath.

I'm sorry... My mistake... I thought the topic was who says morons can't be Christians.

Hello all haters, Welcome and please enjoy your say, cause it is gonna make you laugh!!
I'm sure enjoying it!! Lol!!

Palestinians and Mormons share a common characteristic,

They are invented.

Read The book of mormon yourself and then decide whether The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints is True or Not.
I am and I have decided.

Are you guys LAtter Day Saints?

And if that's what you want to believe, go ahead. You see, you keep trying to drag this into the logical world. At the end of the journey, when I've exercised my logic, perhaps won one or two, you win one or two...then the question comes for which there is no logical proof...the actual existance of a Higher Being. And that is the direction, my friend, I will not go.

Because, like I have told you many times, is a faith. It is a religion. My doctrine cannot be logically proven any more than a Catholic's can. So... why enter into a logical discussion at all about religion? ANY religion? It's all feelings anyway.

This is where my atheist background comes in. Not going to go there. If I lived my life totally on logic, there would be many changes. Huge differences, and many of them would be, I feel, worse (I feel...see?)

So I am skilled enough to give you a plausible non-answer when you get too close to the "logic" piece. Because there is no logic here. Not supposed to be. It has to make sense with your heart.

Mormons can't be christians. They don't follow the bible teachings.They follow a pretend version of events invented by Joseph Smith.
End of story.

Correct there is no other Testament of Jesus Christ, born to Mary, resurrected by the Holy Ghost, and the LIVING GOD on earth.

You must mean there is no other testament of Jesus Christ that was authorized by the Church of England.

There certainly are other period writings that speak of Jesus, God, the Father, and other personages of the time the writings of the King James Version were originally composed. However they were either outwardly rejected by officials of the Church of England, or simply ignored.

Scholars have also determined that the accuracy of the translation of the King James Version is often incorrect, either due to the fact that Hebrew words often have different meanings dependent upon context, or due the the fact that arguments over translation often ensued, which led to the translation being finalized by a "consensus view".

And who's to say that by 1600, every single period writing that speaks of "biblical times" had been assembled for review? Many period writings have been discovered since, that both confirm and expand the story of the Bible.

While I do believe that the authorized King James/Church of England Holy Bible is an accurate representation of events, and does represent the righteous character of Christianity to the extent it is translated correctly, to believe that it is the only testament of Jesus Christ is quite narrow minded.

Do you actually believe that people had the "whole story" on ANYTHING in 1600?

Wow...Everyone is so sure of themselves when it comes to "Religion"...Im right you are wrong no ifs ands or buts, blah, blah, blah.

I grew up in a Missionary Baptist church, I have in adulthood attended Methodist,Cathilic, and Freewill Baptist churches...I have friends who are 7th day adventists, Mormons, Church of God, Jehovah's witness and more...

Whos right? Whos wrong?

The crusades was a war of Orthodox Christians against Gnostic Christians...the Orthodox Christians erradicated the Gnostics...does that mean they were right???
From the Orthodox group came the Holy Roman Catholic church, and then the rest of us protestants and so on...you dont agree with me, I dont agree with you, let make a new church so we can have it our way...We didnt learn then so lets just keep fighting.

All of the "Christian" religions based on the King James Version of the Bible are subjecting themselves to accepting the changes authorized by a man and blindly accepting them as complete "as written by God truths" are we sure they got it all right, or just sure enough that we think we are ok...Books were left out...translations messed up...man isn't perfect.

Get over the differences...God is God, Jesus is his Son, believe in him..

We sometimes forget God had nothing to do with creating Catholics, Methodists, Baptists, Mormons and so on...
God created Jesus, a path to our salvation, not 37 religions to fight over!!!!!

JESUS is the reason..Period.

The only problem with your logic is that while we can't prove there is a God, we can prove Mormonism isn't Biblical and therefore not the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Wow, 99...You evidently do not know what we believe. Because we actually agree. You don't understand why, but we actually agree.
