How Mormons Are Buddhists & Vice Versa (Mormon/Buddhist Fusion Caucus)

Burning Bosom ^

A good example that one can be Buddhist without being Christian.

AMPU, you are correct in all except this sentence:

...., since they start with being created as a spirit who comes to earth.

In Mormonism, Spirit Beings are eternal and are not created, but have existed forever. It is NOT Biblical in the least, in THAT you are so correct.

I also liked the organization of the church and lack of politics and money.

ROFLOL!!! Now that is about the funniest thing I've read today!!

You are kidding right!!!???

Wow!!

[Osage Orange]

I have not run into any part of the Mormon Doctrine that I don’t agree with

Really???

I counted that as correct, because spirit children were born to heavenly father and heavenly mother. However, the ‘intelligences’ that make up our soul/psyche are NOT created, they existed forever.

Also God cannot create or destroy matter (He is not omnipotent in Mormonism) - He can only ‘organize it’.

So, if we are talking about ‘spirit children’ (the beginning of our first estate) then we were created, but if we are talking about ‘intelligences’ then they are not created.

CC - my understanding of the heresy of mormonism is that people are first spirits who result from the celestial sex between Heavenly Father and one of the Heavenly Mommas [”Oooo, look at her! She’s heavenly!!”]

You are writing that spirits are eternal. Can you reconcile these two thoughts?

PS - thanks for responding.

I think Reaganaut did a fine job in the preceding post when she stated that spirit children were born to heavenly father and heavenly mother. However, the ‘intelligences’ that make up our soul/psyche are NOT created, they existed forever.

Also God cannot create or destroy matter (He is not omnipotent in Mormonism) - He can only ‘organize it’.

I was confused - what is the difference between intelligence and spirit anyway? I always did have problems with Mormon theology.

Just DANG!

Does that sound like SCIENTOLOGY, or what!

Thetans have been described in the Church of Scientology in a number of ways.

* A “thetan is an immortal spiritual being; the human soul.”
* “The being who is the individual and who handles and lives in the body.”

CULTS! SATAN’S FASHION SHOW!

With the possible exception of that shyster, con man, thief, adulator, liar Joseph Smith grey has never attacked a mormon.

And you only post anti-Christian stuff.
