Are Mormons Christian? Inquiry into the Church of Latter Day Saints, a peculiarly American Religion

Bible Probe ^

[svcw]

So here on FR and elsewhere LDS want to be called (ignorant, devil deceived, miserable, whore-masters, whore of Babylon, heathen, corrupt, damned) Christians - why?

[Vendome]

That is both the dichotomy and hypocrisy of a religion needing validation in the modern era.

Seems a bit ironic as well.

But then what do I know?

[killermedic]

Nice strawman. I am sure that you have nothing but the most loving and respectful intentions with your crusade against the LDS People. Good luck with stopping the stone cut without hands!

[ejonesie22]

How exactly is it “incorrect”?

[svcw]

,-)
The other day for some reason I thought of you. My husband and I went to a small micro brewery in Santa Barbara and got a couple of pints of cast conditioned ale and (wait for it) duck fried french fries. Yea, I know its strange, but that’s me I guess.

[svcw]

How cute you pinged Resty.

I will write this very slowly so you will understand:

not anti-Mormon anti-MormonISM.

[svcw]

I'll let you know when you can provide a Biblical scripture that says: “we shall let our friends and family be damned just so as to not offend the sensibilities of others”.

[svcw]

So witnessing for Christ is a straw man, now who would have ever thought that.

[ejonesie22]

It's that “can't multitask so I will let my good neighbors waltz to hell cause I can do two things at once” bit again I see.

[svcw]

Supposed to be duck FAT fried french fries. .-)

[ejonesie22]

So a Christian should not defend his faith, not work to save souls from any false religion?

I guess we should leave the Muslims alone too. They are only practicing their faith, and it seems you, like many others in this day and age are part of Oprah’s “all paths are valid” school of thought...

Good luck with that in the long run...

[ejonesie22]

They do?

Why do I doubt that in this particular case...

[ejonesie22]

Still not slow enough, but the lurkers will understand the point.

[restornu]

Yeah. Everybody says the same things about everybody else.

Thank you I grew up in the 1950’s and I remember how the average person held such view towards the other faith there was so much infighting in families and sometimes communities at special occasions as Weddings, and funerals.

As we read the RF we see there are still those who have not grown to Love One Another!

We have some sick, deranged OCD types who see it their God-given duty to harass one particular religion (instead of, say, simply evangelizing generally).

Oh, they will say “We are against Mormonism, not Mormons.” But, see the title of this thread. That defense just got shot to hell. Idiots.

I’m not Mormon but I’d rather have one of the fine Mormon’s I’ve known backing me on a patrol than one of these OCD types.

[Larry Lucido]

Wish we had an edit button so I could fix that plural/possessive thing.

[Larry Lucido]

The title says MORMON, not MORMONISM! Geez.

[ejonesie22]

Oh wait, you're LDS.

Never mind, I should have addressed my post to the lurkers and others. Such logic is wasted on those deceived by MormonISM.

I should have posted a picture of a puppy to you....

[Larry Lucido]

Answer: Some are, some aren’t.

Just like some Catholics are, and some aren’t.

Some Baptists are, and some aren’t.

Some Presbyterians are, and some aren’t.

If you want to be sure if a Mormon/Catholic/Baptist/Presbyterian is a Christian, you’ll just have to check the Book of Life. Is there a leaked copy floating around?

[svcw]

Oh geez. I guess you are correct. After reading the article I can clearly see that the words are written against Mormons and not the teachings of MormonISM. Thanks for the correction.
