Mormonism is a religion of duplicity. Don't expect PD to answer you truthfully whne she/he/it can lie for the lord of Mormonism. Here's what Brcue McConkie had to say reagrding the god of Mormonism gaining the attributes of godhood through the life as a mere mortal on some distant in time and space planet:

>"Those who gain exaltation, having thus enjoyed the fullness of eternal progression, become like God." It should be realized that God is not progressing in knowledge, truth, virtue, wisdom, or any of the attributes of godliness. He has already gained these things in their fullness. But he is progressing in the sense that his creations increase, his dominions expand, his spirit offspring multiply, and more kingdoms are added to his domains. (Elder Bruce McConkie, Doctrines of Salvation, vol. 1, pp. 5-10.)

Without blasphemies from Joe Smitha nd LDS inc there could not be a Mormonism. But then that is the way of all cults.

“Become like God”???

Obviously, that teaching is already evil, the lure the serpent used in the Garden to tempt Eve.

But it’s not the whole “truth”...

Had a mormon in a high position tell me recently that his temporal/eternal progression includes ruling over his own dominion [planet, galaxy, whatever] as a god.

Reminded me of the primary reason why I quit mormonism.
