You cannot compare this example to that of history or God preventing his Churches from doing wrong. Other Churches do NOT claim that they are infallible - - only God is perfect - - eveyone else is fallible.
Hey, how about that, something we agree on. The LDS church does not claim that it's flock or even it's leaders are infallible. There was only one perfect person who ever lived, after all. Even the ancient prophets were human.
>>You forget that Mormonism believes it is the one and only true church of God based upon the fact that it is headed by a Prophet of God...a mouthpiece and spokesman for God on earth. If the Prophet can be fooled about a salamander letter, that leads to bombings and death, then Houston - se have a problem. Either the Prophet is fallible (which nowandlater admits) or God is fallible (which is impossible.) Now if the Prophet is fallible, then how do we know when he is acting as God’s spokesman and when he is just a man.<<
I didn’t forget that so much as I have not heard that.
I heard the Pope say something similar recently. That doesn’t stop Catholics from being Christians. This tendency to judge other Christians and decide they are not true churches is troubling and I wish Mormons and Catholics and everybody else did not do that - judging other’s faith is really for God.
BTW, how can you judge them as “not true Christians” because they judge others the same way. Aren’t you doing the same thing?
