How can this thread be “LDS Ecumenical” when scripture from the Christian Bible is the main text used in the article ???

And also quoted throughout ???

I do not think that the writings of Christianity should be used in an attempt to validate Mormonism’s Joseph Smith, and then members of Christianity shut out from free expression...

Tennessee Nana,
As a Mormon, I’m always amazed at being called a non-Christian, since the name of the Mormon Church is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and we believe in the atoning sacrifice and resurrection of Jesus Christ and in His status as God and Savior of mankind.

What is not Christian about that? We certainly regard other faiths who believe in Christ as Christian, even though they do not believe in the same particulars as we do.

Ecumenic threads are closed to antagonism. To antagonize is to incur or to provoke hostility in others.

No dice. If Christians wish to quote from the Torah on an “ecumenical” Religion Forum thread, they may do so.
