Yes, but several people started asking me questions because I said the Mormons I have known have been very good, kind, responsible people. That seemed to incense people.

I think cruel people are worse than Mormons. Sue me.

If any Mormons would like to check out the Catholic Church, you will find lots of reasonable people like me. Catholicism has the fullest and most complete understanding of Christianity. We’d love to speak to you. With civility. It is a beautiful. rich, and satisfying life- and the only Church which traces its origins back to Christ Himself. Any Catholic Church has an program for people with questions about the faith. You are invited!

MM: Post 488 seems rather enlightened to me, especially the last paragraph. What are your thoughts?

Kid dont get me started on the Catholic Church and their brand of “civility”

My ancestors were French Huguenots..and were murderedd by the Catholic church...

as in “not spoken to nicely...”

Now FOCUS...

This thread is about mormonism...

You scream that Chrisitians are evangalizing to the mormons...

and then several times you have just gone right ahead and proletyzed about the Catholic Church..

I think you are doing it all wrong...

you wont attract the mormons that way...

_______________________________________________

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Wonder if I needed a s/ right there...

Oh, well...

The mormons are not going to listen to you, kid...

You are a pansy, a pushover, a joke to them...

Being phony and “nice” is useless to them...

The wrote the book on a phony frontand lying for the mormon lord......

Thats all those crocidile smiles and home made muffins...

and the so called “help” ???

Have a need when theres no PR attached and see what happens...

The Jesus of the Bible never told us to win the unsaved over with sugar..

Jesus didnt tell us to invite people to a tea party..

He told us to preach the Gospel...

The Gospel is a hard uncomfortable message...

It requires a 180 life change...

Thats why more people reject the Gospel than accept it...

Not because of the delivery...because of the content...

Jesus sent the woman at the well to preach to her town...

most of them came to see what was going on..

Regardless of the messager..

The nice young man with all the money and possesssions wouldnt give them up...

Jesus didnt want his stuff...He just didnt want the stuff to own the young man...

Riches like the mormons have stolen and accummulated to themselves is not indicative of success in the God of the Bible...

As for where you belong, spiritually...

You seem to be more comfortable around the mormons...

That's not a universal condition of Catholics. It was the Catholics that I grew up with that is one of the reasons I left the Catholic church.

Besides, the Catholic Church does not trace its roots back to Christ himself. The beginnings of the Catholic Church are only traced back to mid 300's AD when Christianity was made the official religion of the Roman Empire by Constantine.

The Mormons I have encountered have been the same. But I never grew up in the Mormon faith and never knew any in more than a casual acquaintance type relationship.

So, yes, they can come across that way, with their family values and Mormon Tabernacle Choir and all, but I do trust the word of those who grew up as Mormon, and in the Mormon church.

There is yet ANOTHER vague reference to someone: WHY?
