Funny I have worked with Catholics in Christian organizations for years now and none have ever been insulted when discussing the Bible or our shared love of Christ...

Hum...

Must be the Devil cookie allows them to deceive...

Ok now that is just ludicrous to the point point of parody...

I think you are having a little fun here...

Or you really have learned your theology via cartoons...

>> “None of these invalidate Christianity.” <<

. But calling Mary “Mother of God” or “Queen of Heaven” have nothing to do with Christianity, they are elementary paganism, done to mollify the pagans.

Mary was the mother of Jesus, who is God. The Queen designation relates to the tribal setup of Biblical times - the Queen was actually the Queen Mother - see Jewish rulers throughout the OT.

Kneeling in Prayer was practiced by Godly men since Adam was created, but there is zero evidence that it has ever been practiced by pagans before Roman Catholicism adoped paganism.

Since the Church never adopted paganism, I have no idea of what time frame you are referring to. However, both Buddhists and Hindus kneel in prayer and have done so for centuries before the Incarnation of Jesus.

Angry, hateful and condemning people see an angry, hateful and condemning God.

So you accuse ME of being angry, hateful and condemning?

Why?

Meerely because I CHOOSE to use methods that are PLAINLY shown in SCRIPTURE?

I don't think I've said that you are WRONG in your approach; merely that you do NOT seem to want to acknowledge the OTHER methods that are clearly scriptural.

Acts 9:29

And he spake boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed against the Grecians: but they went about to slay him.

 

 

Acts 15:2

When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.

How do you tell someone that their faith is wrong?

Easy...

First; you must actually KNOW just where/who/what their faith is placed.

Second; then you can show where the object of their faith is non-Biblical.

Third; the Holy Spirit does His part of the bargain.

I try to keep opinion and 'tradition' out of the mix; for they are quite subjective.

Logic works on raw data; emotion works on experiences.

[Elsie]

(I am a Methodist, but I don’t even agree with all of the positions that they hold.)

You'll have to define 'they' and also 'positions'.

I attend a WESLEYAN congregation myself.

[Elsie]

... and faith is something that is very difficult to argue against with any effectiveness.

And yet...

Luke 14:23

“And the master said to the slave, ‘Go out into the highways and along the hedges, and compel them to come in, so that my house may be filled.

"So you accuse ME of being angry, hateful and condemning?"

I only made a comparison of two methods and you made the obvious conclusion. Only you can answer why you appear to be a one string banjo hounding Mormons from thread to thread and boasting when they abandon threads or quit the discussion. Your actions only reinforce any negative stereotypes they might have of Christians.

You appear to engage Mormons because you hate and want to punish them. I engage them because I love them and care about their Salvation. To enlighten and convert one must at least have a dialog, first with actions, then with words. Why else would Jesus have sent His disciples to every accessible pagan and barbaric corner of the planet, many to their deaths?

"Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear [e]involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love. We love, because He first loved us. If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen. And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should love his brother also." - 1 John 4:15-21

May the peace of Christ and the Holy Spirit be with you.

 Growing up, conventional playing cards were banned in my home. We only used Rook. One only had to open up “Mormon Doctrine” to see why my parents banned the cards. It reads,

 

 “Members of the Church should not belong to bridge or other type of card clubs, and they should neither play cards nor have them in their homes. By cards is meant, of course, the spotted face cards used by gamblers. To the extent that church members play cards they are out of harmony with their inspired leaders. Innocent non-gambling games played with other types of cards, except for the waste of time in many instances, are not objectionable.”
