Your right, that is why I do not call you the Monophysites. It is out of respect, not that I would participate in any way in helping you think you are the true church, but out of respect for your church and you.
I appreciate it, Peter, but my point is that it is
not a matter of respect (or for that matter lack thereof) that I would continue to call Mormons Mormons; it is because your leadership has insisted that this name change is a matter of
revelation that they have have received, and I don't believe that revelation comes to the leaders of your religion to begin with, so obviously I'm not going to behave as though I do by abiding by a revelation that I do not believe actually happened.
It is difficult to use The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints all the time, so most of the time I use The Church of Jesus Christ.
That seems like a reasonable choice for you.
I would not expect you to stop using Mormon, but I would not expect such an attitude of not wanting to even peripherally participate in or validate the Mormon religious system, by calling them by their real name. That goes a little towards stubborn, arrogant, ignorance.
You can call it whatever you'd like. It's the same way that I don't call the Roman Catholic Church "Holy Mother Church" as the Roman Catholics do: I'm not a Roman Catholic, so I don't have that view of their Church. It is not my mother, nor the mother of all Christians, as they likewise believe of their Church.
It's the same way that I won't call Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam, "Prophet Muhammad" with no further qualifier (e.g., "Islamic", "of Islam", "false", etc.), since he's not a prophet recognized by any Christian, and I am a Christian, not a Muslim. So "Islamic prophet" will do, just as "Mormon" will do.
If it's arrogant to not use language that represents a worldview (an ecclesiology, theology, or what have you) that I
do not actually have, then I guess I am arrogant. I obviously do not see it that way,
Again, it's not a matter of respect. I call those you call Elders'Elder' so as to signify their place in your religion (e.g., Elder Stephenson, Elder Holland, etc.), as a matter of respect. But I stop short at affirming any particular 'revelation' they should say they've received. To me that's beyond respect; that's participation. That's saying "Yes, I recognize your revelation and will adjust my language accordingly." Well I don't, so I won't.
