Are you that illiterate that you cannot follow a standard reference citation, or just too lazy?

I don't have and won't take the time to look up a reference that you don't care enough to link to. antis have been continually found to be misinterpreting / creative editing citations. Look at what you are doing to my post. I state that we are Christians and therefore cannot be denigrating Christianity, your post is all about thanking me for confirming my support for denigration.

Lurkers, a link to my prior post. (see it's not that hard) read my post, read Godzilla's posted response and compare as an example of this tactic.

As for the JOD being canonized, it wasn't, period.

As for the prophet being lowered somehow... is a prophet speaking for God when he orders breakfast? Talks about the upcoming election? Discusses current theories in science?

A prophet is only a prophet when he says "Thus sayeth the Lord" or some other identifier where he says he is speaking for God. The faithful will know, it is apparent that antis do not know.

As for your demand that I either confirm or deny their words, I do not intend to do either, the spirit guides and I don't propose to guide you. My advice is the same, read, Pray, Ask God he will not lead you astray and he will help you to read truthfully, not for the purpose of hyperbole.

LOL, sources are not that hard to follow AND if they are misquoted why not swarm to it. Sorry Du, pretty lame and lazy - and it does not refute the fact that your prophets and apostles made those demeaning statements.

I'm not doing anything to your post DU. Infact, if any, you are the one 'doing'. Lurkers will go here to see the origional statement and see that Du is saying NOTHING about being mormons being "Christian", or for that matter the link to his other post. Come on DU, you can do better than that.

As for the JOD being canonized, it wasn't, period.

But we are not discussing a matter of canon per say as I noted in my prior. What ARE the facts are that your prophets and apostles have said about CHRISTIANITY and directly bear regarding your statement -

The important question is: What does it do to a man's soul to denigrate another man's faith?

Again DU, you duck the issue by trying to say these men were not speaking 'as a prophet' (that is fodder for another day). But they are in grand open display acting in the VERY way you accused ejonesie22, svcw and other non-mormons of behaiving.

How do you answer YOUR prophets statements DU? Do you sustain them? Really not a hard question to answer if you are going to be honest about it one way of another.

As for your demand that I either confirm or deny their words, I do not intend to do either, the spirit guides and I don't propose to guide you.

LOL, thanks DU, thats probably the best example of duck and run I've seen in a while. Don't need your confirmation of their words - they are available to all to read in the JoD and MD. Their context is not in doubt - they are openly attacking Christianity in their sermons, speeches and writings. What I do hold you to is the integrity to say whether or not you sustain them in those words. Will you show the lurkers out there whether or not you agree and sustain their views/teachings regarding Christianity or not. Giving you a second opportunity to set the record straight on whether you support and sustain YOUR prophets and apostles statements

A prophet is only a prophet when he says "Thus sayeth the Lord" or some other identifier where he says he is speaking for God. The faithful will know, it is apparent that antis do not know.
