Here we go, folks. A tacit admission from a long-term Mormon apologist, Jeff Lindsay.
What "admission" am I talking about?
Well, whenever it seems we can actually get a response from Mormons as to how many gods they worship, they somehow try to emphasize it's only one.
* Some Mormons seem to constantly stress they worship one god...(many Mormons won't be address this question of how many gods they worship, because they know it's excludes Jesus Christ and they know that doesn't sound, PR-wise, to be very "Christian").
* Also, Mormons stress how they pray to one god...
Bottom line: That is how they somehow reconcile all those passages in the Bible, Book of Mormon and even Doctrine & Covenants that keep talking about "one God."
So how does that come into play here?
Well, Mr. Lindsay is saying that once a Mormon god becomes a full-fledged god, he is NEVER independent of the previous god. Well, that would also apply to the current god, who they call Heavenly Father.
The Mormon heavenly father is never independent of his god, as well.
What implications does that have?
Implication #1, Mormons, then are NEVER dealing with just one god, no matter what snowjob they give you.
There's always another Mormon god hanging on just around the corner...whether it's the wifely Mom god...or jesus' grandpa, grandpa-god...or great-grandpa god...or just even recognizing that they are guilty of the heresy of tri-theism, making Jesus and the Holy Spirit out to be separate gods.
So the next time a Mormon uses the term "one God," pull out your ruler. (Ya gotta start measuring how "straight" their face is)
I was just going to list all six implications right here...but instead, I'll break them up for easier digestion, and post the other five independent and back-to-back.
