I called my buddy from school who is a Mormon and told him that a Born Again is speaking for his religion and saying he is not Christian.

He laughed and said, I always enjoyed when people told me what my religion believes.

This guy went on a mission for his church and said you are completely and utterly wrong. He is a Christian.

Sorry for your loss.

I love these types of threads it's like both sides are trying to out stupid the other side. Super entertaining to me.

For the record I don't care what anyone believes. Whatever gets you through the day happy is cool with me.

You are seriously delusional if you think that I am a bigot for saying Mormonism isn't Christian. I don't hate Mormons. I've had some very good friends who were LDS and I didn't let our differing beliefs get in the way of that. They can live as they feel is right, this is a country where everyone is free to do just that, and I wouldn't have it any other way. But what they believe is different, and if they were to walk into any other Christian denomination's Sunday service they would experience culture shock from hearing the sermon/homily/lesson/etc.

Let's review...

believe that God the Father had sex with Mary (who was, incidentally, his spiritual offspring, which kind of makes it incestuous),

that Jesus took a side trip to the Americas after being resurrected to visit with Jews who migrated hundreds of years earlier (leaving behind no archaeological evidence of any kind)?

Funny that you should say that, since Mormons have special secret handshakes they have to learn in their temple ceremonies; knowing the right handshakes gets you into the correct level of heaven when you die.



Eithne_Boadicea posted:
It's been my experience that most Mormons don't even know the background writings upon which their doctrine is based, and the church authorities like to keep it that way. They have a working philosophy of "milk before meat" so they don't tell you the really weird stuff first, just the most basic stuff that seems pretty much like every other Christian denomination in a lot of ways... then as you get more into it, you learn the crazier stuff, but be warned - questioning or disagreeing with it will get you disciplined and/or excommunicated.



All, the hell with it (pun intended), let's just do this the easy way -

What part of that does NOT express contempt for Mormonism?

Saying "you have friends" of the race/creed/religion you are bigoted against is hardly a defense; in fact, it's pretty much the go-to response of any bigot. It reminds me of when I was in the Army, there was a little rich girl from New Hampshire who used to introduce one of the other girls in the barracks as "her black friend Tracy".

According to Bruce McConkie, a general authority of the LDS Church, "Mormonism is indistinguishable from Christianity."



Wow, I'm convinced, thanks for the link.



I was actually shocked when I read that quote was attributed to Bruce McConkie. The LDS church has been trying to get his book "Mormon Doctrine" to lay low since he basically wasn't afraid to say in it all of the stuff that makes Mormons unique and different.

Not sure what else to say to you people on this subject since I've said it 100x already. I guess for those of you who buy into the oversimplified definition of Christianity and the PR campaign the LDS church has been working on, it all makes sense. Congrats, they win. Say hi to god and his wife the next time you're passing by Kolob.

Oozing with bigotry, assumptions, conspiracy theories, and slander.

This is why you are losing this argument.

We all accept you as a Christian though.
