Any religion that says you’ll be a god in the afterlife is not Christianity. Only the devil would promise you such a thing.

But it's right there in the BIBLE; too!


Genesis 3:1-4

Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”

The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”

“You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

--MormonDude(Why don't you 'christians' know your BIBLE like we MORMONs do?)

That is actually a very interesting scripture. God never told Adam/Eve not to touch the fruit. He only said not to eat of it. Eve embellished God's words, which in turn gave satan the open door he needed.
