As far as I can tell, the majority of Christians don’t attach much more religious significance to Easter than they do Thanksgiving.
Um, you guys are on the same side...
Well, in attendance of corporate worship...you're wrong on that alone...I mean, even inactive church members usually worship!...(I mean that's why the nominal members are sometimes described as 'C-E' 'Christians' -- Christmas-Easter).
Mormons are terrific people.
That article is, however, assinine and divisive, while also demonstrative of LDS views of Christians and that pretend thingy Christianity.
“Um, you guys are on the same side.”
I was just clarifying. As I said, mormons are generally good people but I don’t consider them Christians.
No..sorry, I should have stated more clearly...the 24th of July was the date the first mormons who crossed the plains and mountains reached the Valley of the Great Salt Lake in Utah.
“As far as I can tell, the majority of Christians don’t attach much more religious significance to Easter than they do Thanksgiving.”
The 2500 people in each of my church’s service today would beg to differ.
Seriously? that is an uninformed opinion or plain idiotic.
It is the holiest of days as is the week.
I’[d say it’s out of this world in space...
Easter is here on earth...
The mormon mindset is on Kolob...
Kolob, Nana ???
Yeah that’s in the space of Joey Smith’s mind...
Dumb anti-Christian idiot...
ooops!
The only LDS folk I have little patience for are the enablers, those who are profiting from the deception, who know it is a con but work so hard at defending their scam.
“The only LDS folk I have little patience for are the enablers”
Pretty much the same as with Scientologist although they take it to a new level.
I find it interested that the Mormons are so blatant about ignoring Easter. Perhaps the leaders are afraid their members might actually learn what Easter really means.
When ever I see an article posted here that might make Mormon’s look bad in any way possible I know there is a high possiblity it’s going to be posted by Colofornian.
At least you are consistent.
Is this your life’s mission?
Well same thing I guess ... a non-event as far as we’re concerned.
#1...Hey, I usually utilize Mormon sources...
usually talking about themselves...in this case...the thread source is the Lds Church-owned Des News...(Now why do you think Lds would publish an article about themselves to make themselves "look bad in any way possible"???)
In this way I give a fair & balanced treatment...Lds get to air their voice (instead of keeping it tucked away in Utah)...
...and posters like myself get to essentially write "letters to the editors" as "commentary" upon these articles...
#2 The 52,000 Lds missionaries around the world use the doorbells, porches, and living rooms for their 70-hour work weeks. In some communities, they knock on doors that are 70-75% "Christian" and proceed to label them as "apostates" in need of a "restoration."
Me? There's no electronic doorbells on these posts...nobody has to respond. And juggling a handful of e-threads on a given week -- vs. what 52,000 Lds missionaries produce every week...sorry, no comparison.

Do you have any thoughts on the article, or just on the poster?
HMmmm...
