I'm not sure what you people believe anymore. As for me and my house we will serve the Lord.

 
They would not listen, however, but persisted in their former practices.
Even while these people were worshiping the Lord, they were serving their idols.
To this day their children and grandchildren continue to do as their fathers did.
 
 2 Kings 17:40-41

... but the fact remains that Mormons are not welcome here ...

Evidently you've NOT been on the MORMON mission field where this is the NORM for most of the time!

Sweetie; you know that this is just not TRUE!!

You are MORE than welcome to present your case; so why don't you DO it instead of whining like a petulant 2 year old all the time that you are not ALLOWED to present your case?

I’m really trying to get my testimony shorter.

No way, its too good to shorten.

after I resigned I found out that they didn’t process it

I hear that a lot.

Everywhere I have moved to, I have encountered mormon missionaries. I feel like I'm on their list sometimes.

Sandy, that verse is about False Prophets, not believers and the fruit of Joseph Smith is rotten to the core, that is proveable.

Go ahead: prove it!

show feelings of superiority; patronize : take care not to condescend to your reader.

Condescension eh???

 

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).

I should print that and give it to my doctor. He has a huge mormon superiority complex.

At the time, I accepted them whole-heartedly.

Do you have any insight as to WHY neither RESTORNU nor Sandy has expressed NOTHING about that question?

I invite them over for dinner, 2+ hours and they are too polite to leave after you feed them, gives me a captive audience to witness to them, of course they leave me alone for awhile after that. :D

Frankly, IMO, it is because like most Mormons, if the admit they believe and accept those teachings and statements, it might turn people away from Mormonism or cause doubts in their mind that we are evil.

Please do not delete this thread. Many of us would like to be able to link to post #54 the next time the LDS play the victim card.

Sandy, rather than delete the thread, why don’t you answer our questions? Seriously, I would love to debate LDS theology with you, I mean really debate, you know...with sources?

I concur. This thread provides useful insights to mormonism and mormon thought.
