    LDS view on Endtimes?

    We LDS believe that we are living in the last days, pretty much immediately prior to the Savior's 2nd advent. We believe that the tribulations and woes spoken of in the scriptures have already begun to come to pass in some small measure, and that greater tribulation is yet to unfold...

    Sonship Obtained Only Through Mormonism

    I see. My bad. Not hypersensitive. It was a presumption, not an assumption. Assumption = hypersensitive. Incorrect presumption = carelessness. I should have done more homework. When I speak his words and do his works, I represent him. When I do not, I represent myself. I should, of...

    Sonship Obtained Only Through Mormonism

    I presume that you're referring to me (TasteforTruth), who has been banned. If so, you err. I am not ldsfaqs. No sir. I do not hide behind sockpuppets. I say exactly what I want to say, and exactly how I mean to say it. That is why I get banned. I accept my ban as deserved for open and...

    Goodbye

    Fellow UTers, it is entirely possible that I will be banned soon, as the flaming reports are rolling in. If I am not banned, I am leaving nonetheless. Know that I have no qualms about the stands against unfairness that I have taken, in spite of however distasteful you may have found them. My...

    Question for Mormons...

    Well I do think your question is bait. I don't think it's sincere at all. You get a big fat "F" on the sincerity scale, and an "A" on the mockery scale, and I'm not even grading on a curve. But even still I'll answer your question: I don't know. No idea. You tell me. And don't forget to link...

    Question for Mormons...

    My problem is that I will no longer tolerate what I've tolerated for ten months in this sub-forum. And it will only remain a problem as long as people persist doing the various things I'm now speaking so forcefully against. I think I've made clear what it is that I find intolerable at this...

    Question for Mormons...

    LOL! Oh my. Where ON EARTH did this come from? Have you just been aching to ask this today or something? I mean, isn't this thread off-topic enough already? LOL!

    Question for Mormons...

    Well, the main reference was from Alma 12, not from the sermon on the mount (Palestinian or Nephite, whichever). And my intent was not to draw absolute equivalency between the various situations, although you have chosen to view in the analogy such equivalency. My intent was to show that...

    Question for Mormons...

    Thank you for your prayer. Its fulfillment would be greatly facilitated by people not using generalizations against my religion.

    Question for Mormons...

    And do you recall that the very post to which you refer was in response to the persistent use of... generalizations!!!* Well lo and behold if I'm not consistent! As I said, my tolerance of unfounded generalizations employed against my religion has been exhausted. *your...

    Question for Mormons...

    Alma 12:10-11 and 3 Ne. 14:6, although Matt. would work just as well in the case of the latter.

    Question for Mormons...

    No prob. I would call you on it just as I have here, by asking for citations, quotations, facts, etc. I have attacked your generalizations. And I have either claimed or intimated that your persistence in ignoring my own posts, dismissing my convictions, and failure to provide substantiating...

    Question for Mormons...

    LOL! I know I didn't. That's the whole point. I have never claimed even once that I explained what you wanted explained! And yet you want me to prove to you that I did. LOL. Sorry man. Did you just skip this part again...? Where did I assume that they are dumb? Quote it? Or are you just pulling...

    Question for Mormons...

    Nice assumption, but wrong. The phrases are from the Book of Mormon (even the pearls one! :P). And determining when someone is showing disrespect to my personal convictions—that is my call and mine alone. 100% subjective. Perhaps you outsource such things, but I don't.

    Mormonism Equals Godhood Training

    Is it all Mormons or just this one?

    Question for Mormons...

    I think that there is a difference between disagreement and disrespect. A person who disagrees with me but who is respectful—this person gets it all, because he has shown enough respect to merit the "greater portion of the word." A person who is disrespectful gets the "lesser portion of...

    Question for Mormons...

    You're right. I did not explain it. What I did was attempt to help you understand that there was a limit to what I could discuss (not would discuss, for there are certainly conditions under which I will discuss), so that your pre-conceived idea that Mormons won't ask questions could be tabled...

    Question for Mormons...

    I answered you in post #2. You ignored my answer. I and other LDS have been answering questions here for years (ten months in my case). What we have therefore jointly demonstrated is that you willfully look right past what we say and dismiss it, because you are interested only in gratifying...

    Question for Mormons...

    My exact words: I hope that you can understand my answer. If you can't, I at least appreciate that your question seems sincere, and that you really want to understand. I guess how you respond now will tell me how accurately I have understood you. I admitted that you seemed sincere, but that my...
