Well, I don’t know about all that. But whatever it is that you preach and practice here on FR, THAT surely ain’t Christianity. Not any sort of Christianity that any decent Christian knows.

sounds great

if it’s ok to start verbally assaulting any religion we don’t agree with... then let’s get to it!

let’s start with that crazy voodoo chanting stuff

then move onto the booze for babes dished out while simulating the cannibalism of their ‘lord’. talk about devil worship

and anyone trying to defend it should be branded. nothing in the Constitution against brands.

sounds great.

"Yep. Totally saved. They believe in Jesus as the Son of God. That’s all you need."

I think there's just a wee bit more than that to Christianity. Mormons only claim that Jesus is the son of God, but they don't believe that Jesus is the Lord our God, God Incarnate, (which is exactly what the Apostle Thomas said to Jesus as he fell upon his knees in full realization that Jesus is indeed God, - "my Lord and my God" ~ John 20:28 ). Mormons believe Jesus is merely a man, a non-deity, just a flesh and blood man and nothing more. They also believe that His second coming has already taken place, but that nobody noticed Him, so He just decided to go back to Heaven and chill out. Mormons are about as "Christian" as Muslims are.

>>Only males going to Heaven is not part of Christianity..<<

I again defy you AGAIN to point to a post that has attacked any religion.

Finding LDS not Christian isn’t an attack — it is just finding it, factually, not Christian.

1) It isn’t my topic
2) IOW, you have no answer to my reasoned and logical analysis.

>>but hey, liberal-trolls like doing that<<

1) Says the liberal who thinks that being described as anti-Christian is persection.
2) The only people who play the “liberal” card are the same as obama supporters who play the race card. You have nothing of substance.
3) boo hoo, you got bested in open forum

Um...I do attack any religion that TEACHES THINGS AGAINST THE BIBLE. That is my duty as a Christian.

I know I’m attacking the Mormon religion, no delusion there. And that is my constitutional right and my CHRISTIAN DUTY. As a Christian (and an Ex-Mormon) I am called to speak out against any religion that mocks my Savior and teaches lies about Him while leading people to Hell.

Freedom of religion works both ways, buddy.

The delusion lies in your thinking that Mormons have a right to practice their faith unmolested and that it is in the constitution.

And you also have the right to go on your diatribes against Christianity. Just as I have a right to speak out against your diatribes.

You are doing exactly what you are condemning me for.

BTW, there are laws against certain practices relating to Santaria, Voudoun, and Satanism already (namely related to child sacrifice and the use of humand body parts). So according to you that is also unAmerican and religious persecution.

Get over it.

Well, if you don’t know about all that, perhaps you should look a little more deeply into what is surrounding you in Utah. Mormonism is not Christianity, far far from it.

Woodony, brassony, irony.

And again, no substantive reply. (and no substantive surprise)

To be Christians, the Mormons would have to acknowledge and worship the LORD Jesus Christ of the Christian Bible

Jesus, who is Eternal..

Jesus who is from everlasting to everlasting..

Jesus the Alpha and Omega..

Jesus, the Lamb of God..

Jesus who is God...

Jesus the Word of God...

Jesus who is the Second person of the Trinity..

Jesus who is the ONLY Begotten Son of the Father...

Jesus who was born of a virgin who never had sex with man or mormon god...

Jesus who shed His saving Blood UPON THE CROSS to save us...

Jesus who died UPON THE CROSS to save us...

Jesus who rose again the third day to save us...

Jesus who was never a victim but chose to die for us…

Jesus who is Lord of Lords and King of Kings...

Jesus whom the false prophet, Joey Smith lied about...

Jesus who never lost or moved HIS Church from the Earth (and why on Earth would He ???)

Jesus the Righteous who has never needed any foul evil Joey Smith to restore HIS Church..
(Anyone saying that Joey Smith so called “restored” the Church that Jesus built is being “insulting, degrading and blasphemous” to jesus (SD))

Jesus whom Joey Smith the liar never met...

Jesus who destroyed Joey Smith..

Jesus who judged Joey Smith as an unbeliever an an enemy of God and the Church.....

Jesus who condemned the disgraceful unrepentant sinner, Joey Smith to Hell ...

Jesus who is Savior of the Christians as Joey Smith is the false savior of the mormons...

Jesus who will judge who gets into the Christian Heaven while Joey Smith who claimed falsely it would be him is screaming for help in Hell that he earned...

That Jesus...

Any other jesus is not the right one...

should FR start to get flooded with threads debating the merits of Christianity? that’s what you’re doing here.

and if it’s your duty to attack any religion that is teaching against the bible... then why aren’t you in afghanistan or iran?

sitting at your keyboard pumping out anti-mormon dribble is an obvious push to split the conservative base

oh, and congratulations on being a religious bigot.

Certainly Mormons are "Christian" just as much as any "new age Christian", Scientologist, Jehovah's Witness or others could claim the title of "Christian" - because they all have elements (more or less) of Christ in their doctrine.

So where does Christ fit in to the Scientology doctrine?

Everything I have read about Scientology never mentioned Christ or salvation.

Oh, I don't know about that. Lot's of good, decent Christian folks around here. Surrounded by them, in fact, as far as the eye can see.

Just as an aside —

I am making an in this thread an argument that the issue at hand is whether LDS is not Christian. It is a denotative question.

Our general desire to do Christian proselytizing should be done within a context of those who are in need thereof. The LDS are. That isn’t attacking, it is recognizing.

But you note, accurately, that many aspects of the LDS do indeed mock Christianity as much as Scientology mock all religions (and both were founded similarly). For that we have every reason to react strongly.

I just want to categorize the arguments for clarity (not that it will matter to some on the thread).

a substantive reply would be to engage you on the topic, which is faulty at best

as for your attitudes, congratulations, you’re personally trying to drag us back to the dark ages. i’ve dealt with people like you and lived in countries ruled by people with your attitudes (you’ll need loudspeakers for the prayer calls).

believe me, you’d prefer i not give you a similar ‘substantive response’

you’re an admitted religious bigot. a pariah in American society seconded only by racists
