Well, the tradition is wrong. So, I proclaim that I’m not a traditional Christian, because then I would be wrong too.

You're starting to get the picture.

Christianity has embraced falsehood after falsehood, then gotten together and said

Let me reprhrase that:

Christianity MORMONISM has embraced falsehood after falsehood, then gotten together and said:

"Behold there are save two churches only; the one is the Church of the Lamb of God [the Mormon Church] and the other is the church of the devil [All other Churches]; wherefore whosoever belongeth not to the church of the lamb of God belongeth to that great church; which is the mother of abominations; and she is the whore of all the earth." (The Book of Mormon, 1 Nephi 14:10).

If you are insistent that we worship different Christs, fine, I’ll stick with my Jesus,

So we finally are in agreement that your Jesus is not the Jesus of Christianity. So you stick with YOUR Jesus. You can join Ghandi in the Hindu Celestial Kingdom.

You are no one to proclaim that Ghandi will burn in Hell, and you are no one to proclaim that Christ will not save me.

I don't know Ghandi went to hell, but I do know that those who reject Christ, as he did, have been promised eternal damnation (with weeping and gnashing of teeth) by none other than Jesus Christ. His works sure as hell are not going to save him, and he never showed any indication that he dropped his polytheistic Hinduism to worship the real Christ.

Um, no. This betrays a deep ignorance on your part of LDS theology.

The Church of Christ is comprised of His followers, regardless of denomination.

The Church of the Devil is comprised of all those who fight against Christ, regardless of denomination.

~”So we finally are in agreement that your Jesus is not the Jesus of Christianity.”~

No, you’re reading your own interpretation into my words, just as you read your own interpretation into the “Church of the Devil” doctrine above. That seems to be a recurring habit with you, P-M.

I worship the Jesus of Christianity - the original, one-and-only Savior of Mankind.

Christianity, to an extent, has abandoned that Christ, and has instead chosen to worship its own theology - so much so that if you accept Christ but not the traditional theology that “Christians” promulgate, they do not consider you Christian.

In short, the dogmas of orthodoxy have become an idol to many Christians.

It’s not surprising, then, to see such “Christians” act in a very un-Christlike fashion; after all, their god - dogma - doesn’t teach them be be Christlike. Christ did that, but He’s not the object of their devotion. Sad to see, really.
