Men do not become “gods.”

Unless there have been some Mormon posts on this thread that I missed, NOBODY on this thread believes they do.

DR.E: Men do not become "gods."

WAGGLE: Unless there have been some Mormon posts on this thread that I missed, NOBODY on this thread believes they do.

Then Catholics on this thread do not believe the RCC catechism as found at Vatican.va #460.

460 - The Word became flesh to make us "partakers of the divine nature":78 "For this is why the Word became man, and the Son of God became the Son of man: so that man, by entering into communion with the Word and thus receiving divine sonship, might become a son of God."79 "For the Son of God became man so that we might become God."80 "The only-begotten Son of God, wanting to make us sharers in his divinity, assumed our nature, so that he, made man, might make men gods."81

[81] Aquinas
