Can’t get away from a thread of people crapping on my religion? No thanks, I have more pressing things to do, like organizing my sock drawer or cleaning out the cat litter box.

LOL

The more I work with the LDS, the more I am starting to believe in demon possession.

Just STARTING!!

Hell!

That's how this foul heresy STARTED in the FIRST place!

[reaganaut]

Beware of those who teach that God will ALWAYS answer a sincere prayer from the heart. If the ANSWER is already in the BIBLE, and you get a DIFFERENT one from ‘god’ - guess what!

worth a repost

I’m imagine you and the other LDS wish Resty would just shut up :-) No offense Resty.

I did my home work

Oh?

What were your grades?

We have a private library over over 12,000 books, which we are opening up to the public next summer.

I used to work in used bookstores just for book credit (the good antiquarian ones).

I like the internet resources for quick references but there are too many good books out there (especially in my field) to be limited to them.

And I still love nothing more than the feel and smell of a book.

My prize book is a 1711 Vet manual given by Lord Heathrow to a friend and inscribed by him. That one is staying in ‘special collections’.

You should start a “that thread should have been caucused” caucus.

[reaganaut]

Reganaut, I’ve seen them claim to be descended from
ol horndog Joe Smith, have a geneology back to Adam
etc.

Oh, I know there were always the ‘faith promoting rumors’ about it,9someones cousin’s brother’s sister in law) but for someone to actually CLAIM it for themselves??? that is funny.

You wish to make the teaching of the trinity (not found in the Scriptures) the litmus test for caucus threads?

Why? Because YOU accept it?

[T Minus Four]

I promise to not even peek into your caucus thread.

[reaganaut]

wow. we agree on something. Good post logo.

[Elsie]

You do a good job RM keeping things running straight and I appreciate it.

You Hateful BIGOTs are so Smarmy and obsequious!

It is SICKENING the way you SUCK up to the paid help: the minions doing JR's bidding!

--MormonDude(When would be a good time for a couple of our VOLUNTEER missionaries to stop by your home and more fully explain the Restored Gospel® to you and? oh! and your loving family; too.)

Ward members/missionaries out on splits with the deployed missionaries? Seems plausible/likely.

I found that the ward members were usually used to expound on how they “felt” after having joined the church or in being a member. The regular missionary would do most of the teaching with the companion doing some scriptural reading.

That’s the way it was for me the few times I went out on splits.

[reaganaut]

LOL.

Protestants, as I understand it, believe that there was a falling away, or apostasy from the the original church, or else they would not have broken off from Catholicism.

- - - - -
Not quite. It isn’t an apostasy, rather the protestant movement was a reformation of issues within catholicism, not a restoration.

[Elsie]

Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

[reaganaut]

As far as the three Nephites are concerned (and John the Beloved), they were separated from the world by God for a particular mission. They are to tarry until the Lord comes, doing a special work.

- - - - -
If they are still here, and have the priesthood then there is no apostasy.

[reaganaut]

It is a great site and with great resources.

But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. Titus 3:9

Touche CC!
