November 4, 201015 yr If you ever have time, it really is worth reading up on the Mormon church and their beliefs. It's extremely fascinating to see the dearth of extremely divergent beliefs they have from mainstream Christianity. And by and large, they are both totally able and complete unable to see those differences. They think of themselves as sharing the Christian faith with mainstream Christianity while having additional beliefs that essentially set them above it. And they systematically tell their members to not question or challenge those beliefs, and to steer away from anything that would cause them to do so. When I got my taste of crazy, I decided I was full up and got out.
November 4, 201015 yr Sounds pretty judgmental. 1) Christians judge everyone at all times. Is it being judgemental if I'm simply stating a fact? 2) Catholicism is a sect of Christianity, so I guess I fit right in.
November 4, 201015 yr RockMom, I don't mind his name just wondering if he loved to play first base. His choice in the religion aspect, would have to do some research more of the man, so I couldn't say no right now. I want the best person for my country. Can't remember who mentioned my Religion was "started by one man also," the only thing my Man was killed and came back to life in three days. The Bible talks about judging and Heaven and Hell and I've stated this since I came on BGPs, I've had people tell me I was going to Hell, and I will never ever tell someone that. The Bible is it the truth or fiction? I have faith its the truth and some need to check it out. So because your religion's "one man" supposedly came back to life, that makes it more believable than another's religion started by one man? That makes zero sense.
November 4, 201015 yr There is the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and several other similar groups. These are the ones that make headlines for polygamy and have the raids happen. The LDS DOES NOT recognize these groups and saying they are represenatitive of Mormons is more or less equating that the 9/11 bombers are representative of Muslims as a whole. Most of these groups split off when the LDS renounced polygamy (due to political pressure on Utah becoming a state). Reading about the Mormon faith is actually very fascinating. You must have missed alot of the Mosque debates on this site and others a couple of months back.
November 4, 201015 yr I don't think Romney is that bad and seems like the sort that may appeal to Independents quite a bit. With that said, I don't think he ever gets nominated he's not socially conservative enough and will be called a RINO by many in the base.
November 4, 201015 yr So because your religion's "one man" supposedly came back to life, that makes it more believable than another's religion started by one man? That makes zero sense. I'm thinking that if someone comes back from the dead of their own accord & power, they've pretty much proven themselves to be superior to anyone else.

Agree that Romney will appeal to Independents, and also that he'll struggle to get the Republican nomination.
November 4, 201015 yr I'm thinking that if someone comes back from the dead of their own accord & power, they've pretty much proven themselves to be superior to anyone else. Right, but there's no actual proof it happened is what I'm getting at.

November 4, 201015 yr Right, but there's no actual proof it happened is what I'm getting at. OK UKMustangFan, I'm new to the P&R forum, and I'm having a heck of a time figuring you out. Are you Catholic, but do not believe in the Ressurection? :confused:

Are you Catholic, but do not believe in the Ressurection? :confused: I didn't say I don't believe in it. Just can't stand when people dismiss another faith, and elevate their own as the "one sure religion". Because at the end of the day, regardless of what we believe, none of us really know for sure. I see no reason for people to belittle the faith of others.
November 4, 201015 yr Sadly, it will for most Christians. They're the most judgemental group in America. I think Christians would side with Romney the Mormon over Obama the Catholic due to who they think can get the job done. They are not going to vote on who is christian and this will prove it.

November 4, 201015 yr Right, but there's no actual proof it happened is what I'm getting at. There's proof, but not just 100% definitive, which is where faith comes in.

That guy belongs to the Catholic Church, the Church of Christ, and some how is still Muslim. :lol:
