I’ll be the odd man out and say I actually do not mind Matthew joining in the fight against the LDS, which is always looked down upon by FR’s resident heretics/lukewarm Christians. Though, it would be very obnoxious if he claimed that Protestants and Mormons are actually the same thing. In which case, thems fighting words.

I don’t know why you are personalizing this, if you disagree with one of my points related to the thread topic why not just focus on that and lay off the personal stuff?

A similar situation exists with the LDS apologizing for baptizing the dead when groups complain about it. If they believe that it is helping the deceased somehow, why would they apologize or agree to quit doing it (it never seems to stop in any case) when the living complain about the practice?

They aren't similar at all to the government forbidding the practice of the Christian religion in the church.

That is why the Mormon religion has agreed to stop baptizing Jews for instance.

Your post’s truth?

You seem too confused and confusing to have people trying to figure out your blogging.

Mormonism isn’t Christian so you really took off in the wrong direction.

I didn’t personalize a darn thing.

What are you moaning on and on about?

Is everyone on this entire forum totally devoid of a sense of humor??

Keep in mind we’re all brothers and sisters in Christ and are mutual allies in the fight against all cults and enemies of the truth. You both should just shake hands and get it over with.

You started posting to me and I guess you want the last post to make yet another personal attack as well.

I do wish you would just focus on the thread topic and any disagreement with me that you have on that.

Yes, forget about the personal remarks on this thread and just resume discussing the issues raised by the article.

I can’t see what I did wrong....just commented on the sentence and made some advice which I thought was humorous.

Not sure why people are so thin-skinned around here.

No fun at all. Why is that?

I certainly would have laughed at myself if someone had done the same with me in jest.

Where is your sense of humor?

Do you not know jest when you see it?

Why so thin-skinned?

Doesn’t anyone ever have any fun or joke around in this place?

Geez, you’d think it was the end of the world.

My gosh, mod, what is wrong with these people?

Where has all the humor and jest gone in this place?

I am appalled that one cannot even make light of something without it being called a personal attack.

These people really need to lighten up.

When the subject is one's deeply held religious beliefs, tempers are easily riled - therefore we have special guidelines on the Religion Forum to avoid ad hominems altogether.

In the end, we cannot change the other guy, we can only change ourselves.

You didn’t do anything wrong, honestly. Though sometimes its best to apologize even for imagined wrongs.

Really? Even the moderator can’t get you to drop the personal stuff?
