Oh for crying out loud! This just melts with New Age mumbo jumbo nonsense. How dense can people be! Only someone who has been completely brainwashed to the point he has lost the ability for critical thinking could swallow this junk. (CAWW)
Imagine this: Will the 'rebellion' fostered by JimRob & others quell GOP voters in FL (& elsewhere) from making a huge mistake in putting Mitt Romney as THE LEADER of the free world?
Or...will the GOP actually put in a position as THE LEADER of the free world somebody who actually believes the Mormon evolutionary-like, animistic-like, New Age-like tenet that beasts and vegetation were part of a "spirit-pool" world somewhere -- mingled with us as "fellow spirits" of "them?"
Imagine that.
Btw...the "correct" "progression" then...in case you wanted to know the "all-out" evolutionary "track" Mormons say that the gods, people, beasts & vegetation have taken is...
Is...
...we ALL (the gods, too) started off as "spirits" & "intelligences" & "elements" (source: Official mormon "scripture" -- Doctrine & Covenants 93:29, 33)
...then, a god has some of these "spirits" as "spirit kids" born to a mom-god or goddesses near Kolob... (Official Mormon doctrine of the pre-existence...referenced once in a vague way in the Book of Abraham, ...an Egyptian funeral doc "translated" by Smith)
...then, some of us were sent to inhabit a body on Planet Earth...So...if Mitt Romney's spirit-birth certificate from near Kolob ever shows up on Planet Earth...he's got "birther" issues galore!
...then, some of us -- like the Mormon "prophet" Moroni...become angels...
...others, if you get the right "paperwork" (get married in a Mormon temple; get a temple recommend issued to you; and keep all of the Mormon rituals, etc.) ... you get to eventually become a god of your own planet.
Now...I'm not sure what planet the Mormon god grew up on via his "evolution," but Joseph Smith assures us a "council of gods" got together and selected him for the "god job."
Hmm...in light of the quote at the top of this post...does this mean that these "vegetation spirits" and these "beast spirits" can become human and gods, too...eventually?
Sounds like grounds for a new movie: Planet of the Mormon Apes!
I really want to know at what specific point of the Mormon teaching do they forfeit their common sense and critical thinking?...or are most of it’s members lacking to begin... with even a remote degree of reasoning?
When you consider the number of Mormons..and then Islamics...and all the wacko cults and false religions that people “choose” to adhere to...it’s a wonder God hasn’t thrown in the towel on the whole lot!
We have to pray Newt is the nominee Can anyone imagine a President Romney? we will be the laughing-stock of the World when they start examining his beliefs
This is MY heartfelt prayer!
