Now, lets see, if the quotations were copied right then they said what they said. I never said they never said that. So, what is your point? I already admitted our doctrine is different than yours. I don’t subscribe to the Trinity as postulated from the 4th century, if you do, then it is fine with me. Protestants are great people and do a lot of good and so are Catholics. I have lots of friends from both groups. I don’t personally have to hate you. We allow all people to worship as they see fit. We bring added truth,some accept some don’t, and we don’t do beheadings if you don’t believe as we do. Have a nice day.

I suppose you could quote a thousand pastors saying something that is not politically correct by today’s standards and use that against some denomination. This is what was done here. You may have your fun quoting from the 19th century to your heart’s content.

You know lying and deceit really doesn't help your cause any:

“Man can transform himself and he must. Man has in himself the seeds of godhood, which can germinate and grow and develop. As the acorn becomes the oak, the mortal man becomes a god. It is within his power to lift himself by his very bootstraps from the plane on which he finds himself to the plane on which he should be. It may be a long, hard lift with many obstacles, but it is a real possibility” (From Doctrines of the Gospel, Student Manual: Religion 430, 431. c2004 citing President Spencer Kimball, "The Teachings of Spencer W. Kimball", p. 28)

I believe a 2004 copyrighted date is NOT the 19th century. (cough, cough, ahem).

As to your assertion in a later post that "we allow all people to worship as they see fit" is another outright lie that does not aid your cause. If that statement were in fact true rather than a deliberate misdirection -- you wouldn't be sending out missionaries now would you? Hint: Missionary trips are trips that seek to change how other people worship and conform them to the LDS. And no you're not beheading anyone, but then again those hateful bigots the anti-mormons aren't beheading anyone either!
