OK, but when do I become a god with my very own universe?

And what must I do in order to become a god with my very own universe??

A link to all this would be better than posting an entire book.

“And what must I do in order to become a god with my very own universe??

Follow how the Mormons and Muslims did it: Rape small children and murder anyone who disagrees.

Look for more to come.

I hope not. I am pretty much a speed-reader, but there is no way even I would attempt to wade through all of that. And I doubt too many others will. What's the point?

Ah jeez the last page of Revelations argument. That one never gets old does it.

The warning in Revelations does not apply to the Bible, nor does it apply to adding or subtracting other scriptures to the canonized set of scriptures.

Revelation was actually written BEFORE many of the books of the Bible, 1 Peter, 2 Peter, Jude, 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy, and Titus among them. Does that mean that Paul suffers the warning in the last page of Revelation?

What of the books that were removed from the Bible for one reason or another? There is a nice long list of them. There are eleven books that were removed from the New Testament alone. There are twenty eight books mentioned in the Bible, some quoted even, that don't appear at all. Does removing these books or not including them at compilation cause the suffering of the warning found in the last page of Revelation?

Revelation was originally its own book or pamphlet, not part of the Bible. It was included later in the compilation. Does that mean the compilers of the Bible suffer the warning in the last page?

The Bible itself as we know it, with or without Revelation, as actually compiled from various sources. Letters, scrolls, books, etc. So does compiling the Bible together suffer the warning found in the last page of Revelation?

First thing first: your sweet pea is darling.
Second: old argument and you lose thanks for playing.

Does the warning in the Book of Revelation only apply to the Book of Revelation?

So if anyone adds to or subtracts from the Book of Revelation, then the curse should be upon them?

Would you agree with that?

You are an interesting poster, you know? I spent a few minutes looking up your recent posts and you don’t seem interested in anything except being an anti-mormon. Why is that? Why do you seem to hate us so much?

On the other hand, Joseph Smith is again in company with the earliest Christians, and Latter-day Saints reject the notion of creation ex nihilo.96 In one of the LDS creation accounts Christ says, "We will take of these materials, and we will make an earth whereon these may dwell." (Abraham 3:24) Joseph Smith spoke of this principle when he said:

Now, the word create came from the word baurau which does not mean to create out of nothing; it means to organize; the same as a man would organize materials and build a ship. Hence, we infer that God had materials to organize the world out of chaos--chaotic matter, which is element . . . . Element had an existence from the time he had. The pure principles of element are principles which can never be destroyed; they may be organized and re-organized, but not destroyed. They had no beginning, and can have no end.97

Again, since this article is in the News/Activism forum I'm going to have to say..... BULLCRAP!

In fact this thread is really starting to smell. Someone get me a barf bag. Where is the BARF ALERT on this article?

If this author is correct, then the Universe created God and not the other way around.

I don't suppose this Moron Mormon has any credentials in Old Testament Hebrew? If he has them, he got them as a prize out of a Cracker Jacks box.

Questions and comments ARE NOT hate.
Why are you so dense?

Oh, so true....lets see people are insecure when they are not sure.....sensitive when they are not sure.......
So to conclude lds on FR at least are insecure and sensitive because they are not sure.
