To: P-Marlowe
If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal. And if I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. (1Co 13:1-2 ASV)

You're right.

As a matter of fact, that verse just popped into my mind a few minutes ago and I told the Lord that I needed more love for Mormons and I don't have it. I probably need prayer for my anger at the dire cost of misogyny and false teaching and fake patriarchy presented in their leadership.

So, P Marlowe, former Mormon and presumably Christian, say a prayer for an almost ex Mormon. That religious spirit of hypocrisy and misogyny galls me and needs to be overcome in prayer. Say one for me.

To: Californiajones; All

And CalJones and all other Christians, if you will indulge me, I would like to ask you one last question. I believe you all believe that we are the children of God. Now, consider the type of being that the Jesus Christ of the New Testament is, think of all that he taught and represented. Do you think He would condemn all the billions of people who have been born throughout history and lived their lives without even having the chance to hear about Christ? This may just be another example of misunderstanding the teachings of Christ in the 4 gospels, but it seems to me like that Christ would never condemn all of those people just because he decided that they should be born in that time and that place.
