Mormons are not Christ centered..they are Joseph Smith and their temples’ centered....

If that is true, Lutherans are Martin Luther centered.
The Reformed churches are Calvin centered. Methodism is John Wesley centered. Catholicism is Pope centered. Come to think of it, using that low level, biased logic, must be no church is Christ centered.

The ignorance displayed on these threads in incredible.

A case could be made that Catholics are pope- or church-centered, rather than Christ-centered, since they mediate their relationship with God through the church bureaucracy. But the same could not be said about Lutherans, Methodists, and various Calvinists. The founders of those strands of Christian thought put the emphasis (to varying degrees) on Christ himself.

I myself wouldn’t call Catholics non-Christians, by the way.

The ignorance displayed on these threads is incredible.

The innate human desire to revere rulebooks, and to exalt the rules of one's own tribe over those of another, usually triumphs over genuine spiritual insight.

Most of us never lose the desire to build a tree fort and put up a "No Gurlz Alowed" sign - we just shift it to the church. ;)
