FC:That ought to tell how well your God/Man will do in the political future.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

7:Hm, I didn’t think Jesus Christ was running for office. Perhaps you have inside info?

********************************

You have obviously just tried to spin your way out of admitting that Mitt is working on the God/Man model. Or, are you telling me instead that you don’t believe one twit of the BOM and that High Mormon Priests like Romney are unable to become Gods of their own planets? Are we seeing doubt in Mormon dogma expressed here?

Either Mitt is on track to become a Man/God, or he is not and Mormon doctrine is false. Which is it?

Nice try.

I'll give you the same answer that the great Christian writer has shared, I'm sure you've heard of him.

“The command Be ye perfect is not idealistic gas. Nor is it a command to do the impossible. He is going to make us into creatures that can obey that command. He said (in the Bible) that we were “gods” and He is going to make good His words. If we let Him-for we can prevent Him, if we choose-He will make the feeblest and filthiest of us into a god or goddess, dazzling, radiant, immortal creature, pulsating all through with such energy and joy and wisdom and love as we cannot now imagine, a bright stainless mirror which reflects back to God perfectly (though, of course, on a smaller scale) His own boundless power and delight and goodness. The process will be long and in parts very painful; but that is what we are in for. Nothing less. He meant what He said.”

C.S. Lewis
