Answer my question: why don’t Jews care about what Mormons or any person of any faith thinks about them?

Sigh...

So demanding!

The question you SHOULD have asked is:

"Why are JEWS upset that MORMONs are proxy baptizing their dead ancestors?"

No, he or she did not. I refer you back to my comment #189:

You seem to have a MEMORY problem!

So, am I damned to burn in Hell for eternity for recruiting an idol-worshipping heathen to play on my softball team?  <--- Question

A Catholic doesn't KNOW this stuff?

I do NOT may the rules; I just POST them!


John 3:16-18

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.

Please, try answering the question next time. John 3:16 does not apply to the recruitment of players in recreational softball leagues.  <--- Admission of not underSTANDING the answer

I'll ask again: am I damned to burn in Hell for eternity for recruiting an idol-worshipping heathen to play on my softball team?

Please, an answer that does not involve cutting & pasting. "Yes," "no," "maybe," or "I don't know" are very good ways to answer, and you can use them without playing stupid.   <--- Bitching about the first answer

Never mind, I’ll ask someone who can give me an answer. Like maybe someone who is religious.                                                                                      <--- B eing let off the hook to answer any more of his questions...

And I get miles of multi-colored, formatted graphics to "prove" something that cannot be proven.

Prove to us that your statement is provable.

Moral equivalence is one thing, and respect for someone else's religious beliefs is another.

YOU do not respect mine.

YOU are a hypocrit.

John 3:16 doesn't cut it, I'm afraid.

HR actually answered the question you could not, but I appreciate your “concern.” And thanks, HR.

Believe it or not Elsie, I've had many a thoughtful and informative conversation with Christians over my almost sixty years.

I've read many of the books of apologetics they've recommended to me, and although there I have found some challenging arguments therein, in the end I remain one of those who in Pascal's words "are so made that I cannot believe"...I find the concept of a universe ruled by supernatural powers as alien as a universe in which 2+3 does not equal 3+2.

You, on the other hand, just don't ever seem to be the type of person with whom a thoughtful and informative conversation can ever take place. For all I know, you may be very different in person, but your posts (intentionally or not) come across as the electronic equivalent of Jack Chick tracts.

The question you asked was not mathematical from the beginning*, but a question of damnation, or not.
To THAT question, the answer given was meant to apply, and still does.


*unless we are to see it as that one life, given for many

Yet, the question could have been answered with a yes, no, maybe, or I don’t know. As I mentioned, someone more capable came along and answered it, so it’s pointless to discuss the metaphysics.

There was a time here, not so long ago at all, when sassing back to Certain People would definitely get you booted from FR.

Not so much since about mid-August, but the possibility is always there.

re: thoughtful and informative

Frankly, I think that the denizens of the Religion Forum have grown so accustomed to talking past each other that they fear directly answering a question, thinking it is a set-up. The result is that a good portion of the following comments become neither thoughtful nor informative.

And yet I am the with the thoughtful conversation impasse.

AMAZING!
