***Greek manuscripts are nice if that's all you've got to go on, but Christians are supposed to have something better: revelation from God.***

A debate would indeed be useless given your willingness to toss out the Bible every time Joseph Smith claims a revelation. Your radical commitment to subjectivity makes discussion impossible especially when you discard a well established biblical text for the declarations of your living prophetS (plural).

1 Peter 3:15 (JST)

...and always decline to give an answer to any Freeper that asketh you the reason of the hope that is in you, for if their bosom burneth not then they are not really sincere. However, do pretend that you are a fellow Christian so as to lure lurkers who might not know the difference...

Don't forget everytime a President/Prophet has a revelation, the Bible has to be discared.

I'm sitting here thinking how good it is the internet and other information sources were developed. With the research that can be done, and the ability to get information out, I don't think we'll see another revelation coming from the President or the Qurom of the Twelve. At least one that goes against basic Christian belief.

Well, lookie here: a meeting of the minds has finally been achieved, at least so far as the uselessness of debate goes.

You value ink on paper more than you do living oracles of God; we see it from the other direction. There lies the root of our differences.

Your right, why believe what the Lord has already said, when you eagerly wait to sign up wife #2 the next time a sudden itch hits the current President and Prophet!
