Joseph Smith needed a hanky to go with his outfit.

aka

Acts 19:11-12 (KJV)

And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: so that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.

“Mormonism was founded as a SEX CULT. Mormons who hold to Smith’s ‘eternal covenant’ are still a SEX CULT. “

Wow! This thread deteriorated fast. Turned into a love fest for the anti Mormons. After a few such posts, most reasonable people turn the other cheek and move on.

Well it was true that if Joseph Smith wanted someones wife - they turned her right on over - that is a SEX CULT.

The fundamentalist polygamous Mormons still trade women like baseball cards and “reassign” women and their children to more favored men- that is a SEX CULT.

Anybody who would turn over his wife to another man, or any family that would accept being “reassigned” - they are CULT MEMBERS.

Now I don't think the mainstream Mormons operate as a cult at all these days - but they certainly were founded and run that way early on.

OK, I get it now. Your stories are better than their stories.

I stopped going to church because of the members who felt a special, personal pride in their being righteous.

After studying the likes of Pope Innocent III, Stalin and Hitler, I don’t want to have anything to do with those people. They are seeds of genuine evil; they will be evil-doers if ever they get the power to be so.

In your case on this thread....it appeared like you got caught lying. And just went dark for a little while.

SD is a riot, isn’t she? It’s like slamming one’s toe with a hammer and then spending the next few days blaming everyone else and feigning shock about the throbbing and soreness. Somehow, the word “DUH!!!!!” comes to mind. I won’t get drawn in again to appease her sickness.

MORMON
ATTITUDES OF SUPERIORITY
 

  1. I’m Superior; I have a special gift of the holy Ghost -- you don’t!
  2. I’m Superior; I have God’s true priesthood power -- you don’t!
  3. I’m Superior; I can go in God’s secret Temple -- you can’t!
  4. I’m Superior; I’ve been Endowed with special Gifts and Knowledge -- you’re just normal!
  5. I’m Superior; I’ll have my family with me in heaven -- you’ll be with strangers!
  6. I’m Superior; I’m becoming a God -- you aren’t!
  7. I’m Superior; My women know their place as servants of man and yours don’t.
  8. I’m Superior; YOUR creeds are wrong because they come from man - mine comes from God (you can find each one printed in our Scriptures).
  9. I’m Superior; I don’t HAVE a creed - I’ve got 13 Articles of Faith.
10. I'm Superior; I have 4 "Bibles"-- the standard works (5 if you count the JST) -- you've only got one: in as far as it is translated correctly.
11. I’m Superior; I can lie with impunity about such things as church membership, church growth, church doctrine, church history, church influence, etc. —                           -- You can’t.
12. I’m Superior; I am right (everybody knows) when I say 'evangelical' Christians are lunatics -- 
                           -- You’re a hideous narrow-minded bigot, who is persecuting me by practicing discrimination by saying I'm not a Christian.
13. I'm Superior; I have a testimony about a prophet -- you don't.
14. I'm Superior; I have a Scripture-producing Amos 3:7 prophet -- you don't
15. I’m Superior; I have a Living Prophet who talks to god every day -- you have a dim-witted hireling of Satan who only talks to himself.
16. I'm Superior; I have my calling & election made sure -- you don't.
17. I’m Superior; I have magic underwear to protect me from the bogey man -- you don’t.
18. I’m Superior; I have secret clasps and grips to give the angel so I get admitted to the celestial kingdom -- you don’t ;so you can’t.
19. I'm Superior; I know secret handshake codes for afterlife entrances-- you don't.
20. I’m Superior; I will see Joseph Smith setting on the right hand of GOD, when I get to Mormon heaven, and he will recognize me and judge me favorably                              -- You’re on your own; when you get to wherever you’re going!
21. I’m Superior; I’m going to hie to Kolob -- you’re going to who knows where.
22. I’m Superior; I get to have a harem and act like a celestial stud for time and all eternity -- you don’t.
23. I’m Superior; I have sun stones, moon stones, sky stones, cloud stones, Saturn stones, and the evil eye of Osirus guarding my temple
                            -- You have nothing but a stupid cross.
24. I’m Superior; My church has billions in assets stashed away -- yours has taken a stupid vow of poverty.
25. I'm Superior; Last - we have the power to keep a whole race out of our priesthood if we wanted to reinsert our 148-year legacy  (we ARE still keeping an entire GENDER at bay!)
26.  I'm superior; I have the "higher law" -- everyone else "lives under the "lesser law' because I say so...(over and over).

Yup!

50,000 of those Mormon Missionaries out there every day, projecting their CHURCHs spin on what it thinks Christianity is all about.

It sounds like you have your own inquisition going. That is evil, nothing else.

You poor soul, you frame your questions as a true inquisitor.

I have explained that yours is a metaphysical argument, nothing can be proven. Yet you continue. So, you're not a logical thinker; you're emotional, like an Obama voter.

You are begging the question. I don't believe in ANY scripture, as it was written by people; some like me, some like my neighbor, and some like you. I think those who use it to justify their acts of pride and intolerance are evil.

I believe in God and believe that He tests us. I believe that we are temped by Satan, who always uses our greatest spiritual weaknesses against us.

You have no authority. You have a grand ego and you are intolerant and prideful. Put all that together and what do you have?
