Actually, it turns out that Opie and Andy were both blowhard Democrat Obama supporters.

How many errors and variances are in the Bible?
Come on, Elsie, you seem to be an expert on the Book of Mormon, do you know anything about the Bible?
Or are you a Bible Lite protester?
To: Godzilla
Nice obfuscation but you present absolutely no evidence for Moses. All you seem able to do is to attack the Book of Mormon.
Go ahead, keep believing that you have to have evidence.
Jesus did not build His Church upon the foundation of Thomas, but he selected Peter and Paul. Which ones had to put their hands into the wounds of Jesus to believe?
Would you be one who had to put his hands into the wounds of Jesus to believe?

How many errors and variances are in the Bible?None - now that the Founder of MORMONism has CORRECTED the KJV.
Uh... just why is it that the LDS Headquarters in SLC will NOT canonize this book?

Go ahead, keep believing that you have to have evidence.I'm sure that you realize that there is ZERO 'evidence' for the Book of Mormon other than a few peoples 'word'; don't you?
MORMONs HAVE to believe the WORDS of a few men - men that in SO many places of their lives are so dallible and error prone.
Good Luck is all I can say those who believe the story(s) of angelic visitation(s?) to Joseph Smith.

Well, you may feel free to ignore all the evidences plus the plain truths plus the answers to prayers.
Protesters are very good at ignoring those things.
To: Elsie
Give it up. You must have heard about the 200,000 or so variances in the manuscripts that still exist?
To: Elsie
odd. it was a link to the JR thread about SPAM LDS

Well, you may feel free to ignore all the evidences plus the plain truths plus the answers to prayers.You MUST be talking of the Founder and Leaders of early Mormonism; Right?
They seemed to have 'missed' the ONE man - ONE wife thing the BIBLE and the Book of Mormon BOTH talk about.

Are His footprints there? Can you see them?
To: Elsie
Well, you are the protester that spends all of his free time attacking my Church.
To: Old Mountain man
Are His footprints there? Can you see them? Oh well this is choice - denying the existance of Jesus are you now as compared to physical evidence. I guess that is all you are left with when you try to defend a book that was in the final analysis of mormon church historian BH Roberts to be a 19th century myth.

According to your standards, the Bible is a myth because there is little to no archeological evidence of Jesus Christ.
Remember, that’s your rules, not mine.
I believe in God the Father, His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.
See, the shoe is on the other foot now. Not only have you presented yourself as a protester, you, by your rules, deny Christ.
To: Alamo-Girl
If you'd like, you could cut and paste it into a Freepmail to yourself to read it.
That's a very good idea. Thank you for the suggestion. :)
I'll do that and respond. :)

But by your own logic, since Adam and Eves fall was a fall up, then you must agree that Judas was a true believer because without his actions, the atonement would never have happened.
Do you mean "foul up"?
Your logic dictates that God only had one way of getting Adam and Eve into mortality. That was the fall. That's a very short sighted way of thinking. I can assure you if Eve hadn't have given into temptation, everything would have proceeded just as planned.
Judas had nothing to do with the atonement. It was Christ that atoned for our sins, not Judas.
Just in the off chance you're not claiming Judas is part of the God head, Jesus wasn't hiding from the Romans. They could have just as easily asked any of the Pharisees who He was and they would have gladly pointed Jesus out to them.
Jesus, however knew that Judas would be the one that would identify Him to the Romans. Had Judas chosen not to betray Jesus, the crucifiction would have happened a day or so later.
