Jesus was a Jew, but he was not an "Orthodox" Jew.

Shows how much YOU know!

Your open hostility makes me not want to address you, what good will it do?

Your kidding, right? ROFLOL!! You guy's are really a hoot and a half.

Open hostility??? Please point out a hostile comment.

You guy's can't see the forest...for the trees.

It's completely obvious to me...that you've never really sincerely prayed about it...because if you had, you would have been shown the Truth.

Something is seriously wrong with a church that focuses mightily on building a $30-40 ++ BILLION dollar financial empire.

I will continue to pray that your heart's and minds will be opened..to the Truth.

Why is it up to you to condem all who don't believe the same as you?

John 12:47-50
47. "As for the person who hears my words but does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save it.
48. There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; that very word which I spoke will condemn him at the last day.
49. For I did not speak of my own accord, but the Father who sent me commanded me what to say and how to say it.
50. I know that his command leads to eternal life. So whatever I say is just what the Father has told me to say."

Elijah had the power to call down lightning from Heaven.

He might have had the power to do this (I doubt it, but he COULD call on a GOD who could do it), but, fact is, he DIDN'T do it!

The Bible CLEARLY says FIRE:

1 Kings 18:36-38
36. At the time of sacrifice, the prophet Elijah stepped forward and prayed: "O LORD, God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, let it be known today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant and have done all these things at your command.
37. Answer me, O LORD, answer me, so these people will know that you, O LORD, are God, and that you are turning their hearts back again."
38. Then the fire of the LORD fell and burned up the sacrifice, the wood, the stones and the soil, and also licked up the water in the trench.

(Will you now call ME a 'bigot' because I pointed out your error; or thank me for it?)

Had it not been for the US Government and its power, the entire US would probably now be Mormon.

Nah... give the credit to GOD!

If the Gummint hadn't messed up their little polygamy gambit, there would have been SO many wifeless men, that it would NOT be pretty now!

(Can THIS possibly explain all the GAYS in SF?)

I looked into those things and found out - guess what - they were generally unfair accusations.

But the OTHERS were RIGHT ON!!!

No WONDER no one wants to vote for him!!

The 11th article of faith of the Church says: We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own concience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.

And the one ABOVE this one, #10, says THIS:


10. We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes; that Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent; that Christ will reign personally upon the earth; and, that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisiacal glory.

And #6 and #7 say THIS:

6. We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, and so forth.
7. We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.
  

Tell me...

Just WHAT kinds of stuff are lurking in the phrase "and so forth"?

What were you saying about "un-American" Jim?

Wow, you really opened my eyes.

Unfortunately, I really don't like what I see.

--------------------------------

Let me offer up an example for you.....

You come over to my house...and try and tell me that Michael Moore is right..and you have umpteen thousand reasons and excuses why.

I tell you, you are so wrong..and I tell you why.

You call me a hostile bigot, and a intolerant anti-Moore non-progressive...

I then tell you to leave, and take your Michael Moore ideas with you......

Is that un-American?

Is that any clearer?

If Romney were involved in the porn-production industry, I would have a problem.

So DISTRIBUTION is ok by you; it's just the PRODUCTION that tends to stick in your throat (ahem)?

This argument displays a lack of understanding of LDS belief - where free agency is paramount.

Unless you want to go into a TEMPLE, of course.

Seems to have WORKED for the MORMONS!

Who cares what some Mormon said eons ago.

Or do you also hold each candidate responsible for what the heirarchy of THEIR denomination might have said in the past.

Is McCain responsble for what Pope's massacre of Peruvian indians back in 1456 A.D.??

Is Huckabee responsible for Jones University's banning of interracial dating??

You Romney haters continue to blow my mind with these juvenile statements.

In fact, these attacks sound more like the style of the Soros/Michael-Moore school of derangement.

Stick to the issues, and please stop these antedoctal claims. If you can't come up with a specific, what's the point in throwing out these ad homonim attacks?

tant,
I see your point, but when you wrote...

“Now, you may say, “But, Romney was on the chain’s board.” So? Did he have the influence necessary to stop the sales to which you object? “

Yes. The board hires and supervises the CEO. I would like
to know if he raised the issue - particularly with his close
ties to the family (being a namesake of Willard Marriott).

To me, it goes beyond his comfort with the business he
oversaw being involved with porn. It goes directly with his
ability to deal with difficult issues that involve conviction
versus relationship. Success versus character.

I’ve read the Bible through many times as recreational reading and have NEVER found anything about a frog leading an army. You must not have done the same.

First do you agree with the other claims? I particularly liked Joshua stopping the Earth from spinning and the Moon from orbiting. Or did you miss that in your many readings of the Bible.
