“All religions have members that embarrass them, if not, I can always join.”

Quite true. My problem is not that you might have flawed characters, they could be forgiven, but that you claim gods walk among you.

I Said: “All religions have members that embarrass them, if not, I can always join.”

You said: Quite true. My problem is not that you might have flawed characters, they could be forgiven, but that you claim gods walk among you.

This is not quite correct, we claim that you have never known a mere mortal for we are all god’s children.

A lot of the people on this thread who are not Mormons seem to think we think better of our selves because of this belief, and they miss the obvious that we think better of you too. We cannot claim to be children of God without elevating you to the same status. It’s not pride, it either is or it isn’t true, and if (humor me for a moment please) it is true then you have every bit as much potential to become a God as I do.

Mormons think better of you than you think of yourself, and you fight with us about it!

To a Mormon, you are just as much a future God as we are. You might even be further down the road than we are.

So it is not that Gods walk among us, as we are all Gods walking among each other and not realizing it.

As you were, Oh and thanks for agreeing that if a church didn’t have enough embarrassing members, I could join, maybe they could use the both of us? /Humor
