    Praise to the Man!

    Mormon Historocity - A Reflection of Irony?

    please explain what you mean by "what it is telling us about the Bible and those players involved." i'm unsure of what you mean by that.

    Praise to the Man!

    it's easy to say that the hymn is not an accurate reflection of mormon doctrine, but that is not the point. the point is that the hymn gives JS the role of everlasting priesthood. this is clearly not in accordance with the bible. this is doctrine of the mormon church. the hymn is merely a...

    Will the real Jesus please stand up?

    i apologize if my comment seemed inflamatory. i am sorry and i will watch my tone. i was merely trying to question what was meant. i don't understand about the comment that something horrible happened to the jews. what happened that could compare with the deaths of all of the wicked people?

    Will the real Jesus please stand up?

    did i miss something? the jews didn't all die did they?

    Will the real Jesus please stand up?

    you must have read the "praise to the man thread." that whole "anti-" thing was really pointless. one small thing that i find odd about the mormon jesus is that when he left the americas, all those that were evil were destroyed. it seems odd that the jesus of the new testament would pray...

    Was Adam an angel?

    ok, that's really unfounded scripturally. if you want to discuss that, start another thread. the thing that God gave man that angels do not have is a soul. angels are of a completely spiritual nature. man is a combination of spirit and flesh. the meeting place of the two is the soul. for...

    the apostacy

    wow, i thought this thread would go nowhere. thanks for posting. ok, so here are a few questions: what of the different denominations in the LDS church? most of the protestant denominations were created by a difference in church structure or form of worship. the mainstream protestant...

    Praise to the Man!

    ok, i'm back. i did read your analogy post. but i find it irrelevant. we are talking about a hymn. in this hymn, very specific things are said. i'm a writer, lifetime reader, and a philospher. interpreting what is exactly said is what i am good at. reading this hymn, one can only come...

    New Film Reveals Evidence Against Mormons' Historical Account

    i've tried to read all of the posts, on this thread, but many seem content to attack each other instead of answering the questions. so i will forego reading all of the questions and simply ask mine. if the bom took place in a small area of the americas, what should prevent the dna from...

    Praise to the Man!

    please, everyone, stop pointing fingers. reading this thread makes me wish i were a moderator. then i could reprove everyone for getting off topic, arguing about who's slurring who, and getting close to flaming each other. please, let's try to keep to the topic. whether one is anti-mormon or...

    God or gods?

    i understand what you are saying, but i still must disagree with your willingness to ignore what the founder of your faith taught. what the apostle paul wrote was taken as divine encouragement and instruction from God. nothing paul ever taught was passed over or seen as mere speculation...

    or rather, supporting evidence.

    How many Christians agree with evolutionary theory?

    i will stand by my statements. those birds/dinosaurs in that link you provided are still extremely controversial. the archaeopterix has been proven false on numerous occasions. i'm waiting for a transitional fossil that was found as a single, complete fossil. random parts put together do not...

    God or gods?

    i just wanted to ask a question to the mormons who read this. i know that it is a mormon belief that a prophet's words are only binding when he is acting in his official role. so my question is this: where is the prophet's "off" button? prophts in the bible served in life terms. once a man...
