What you say of my posts concerning the members of the LDS church are true...my few meetings with LDS church members are as you say...now, from those meetings, they never tried to witness to me, nor to my mom and dad(who were the ones who were primarily involved with these church members)...
So, yes, it is quite shocking to me, to see, that part of their beliefs is that man can become a god...I had not really known that before, and am rather perplexed by it...
I suppose in others posts, I had noticed that some were saying that LDS members believed themselves capable of becoming 'gods', but had never taken the time to see it, authoritatively spelled out on the official LDS website...so that was quite eye opening...
And this will certainly require some further reading and much further thought on my part...
I have saved the link to the official LDS website, so I feel that there I can pursue further questions, that I might have...
Another good website is http://www.lightplanet.com/mormons/
I was referred there by other mormons on FReeRepublic, so I assume it is "Church" approved.
That sight also has more in-depth answers than the official LDS website. That site is somewhat geared to investigators of the Church.
Next time a Mormon claims to be a Christian, ask them if, since you are a Christian, it would be accurate to refer to yourself as a Mormon.
