Wow! :eek:

And, I agree with this. :) Where you and I may differ is in the how's/mechanics of His creation. ;)

Well said. :) Instinct, genetically coded, is the driving force in the animal kingdom. Eating habits, sex drive, migratory patterns, nesting, hunting, predator evasion, habitats and the like, are all the result of instinct. Desire for sex, beyond the instinctual level, is limited to animals...

You're right. I found out that they use the New World Translation version of the Bible. Thanks for the clarification.

Come on now. Is this the level you want to communicate on? Is this really necessary? If it is, I'm out. I like to keep these discussions respectful and dignified. I have no animosity or ill feelings towards you. I am not out to insult you or attack you. I am here to discuss differences in...

From the word 'ben' - Ben: son, grandson, child, member of a group son, male child grandson children (pl. - male and female) youth, young men (pl.) young (of animals) ** sons (as characterisation, i.e. sons of injustice [for un- righteous men] or sons of God [for angels]...

I'll be standing by, putting scripture in context. ;)

The root word which was translated to 'repent' in some translations and 'relent' in other translations, is 'nacham'. Nacham: to be sorry, console oneself, repent, regret, comfort, be comforted (Niphal) to be sorry, be moved to pity, have compassion to be sorry, rue, suffer grief...

Thanks for this article. The Aladdin Hotel doesn't give a flip about politics. They are running a business. Any reasonable management would get rid of anything that hinders or hurts business. They were not focused on political ideology. They were looking at business costs. From a...

Ahh, but you're wrong. ;) Much can be learned through the debate process. The same Bible you use, is the same Bible Jehovah Witnesses use. Yet, you both come to completely different conclusions in several major areas. Giving spiritual guidance equality on both sides, we are left with logic and...

This issue is dead, as per the staff edit of the OP. Apparently, we will be unable to have a debate exclusively between Mormons and Jehovah Witnesses at Christian Forums. This is unfortunate. And since non-Mormons and non-Jehovah Witnesses have some misinformation about these two churches...

Ah, yes. The Urim & Thummim, from the days of the Hebrews - before Christ. Urim represented light. Thummin represented truth. After Christ came along, all that stuff ended, (for followers of Christ anyway). To Christ's followers, Christ is the Light. Christ is the Truth. He sent us...

I'm telling you what I believe on the subject. Period. No contradictions. The specific 'hows' of God's creation, are not core Christian doctrines. What is this? Am I now getting the 3rd degree from you? This thread is not about me. Okay?

A reasonable question. The fact that God took any time at all, (instead of creating everything in an instant), says a lot. For sake of this discussion, let's suppose God did create everything in 6 literal days. Why did it take Him so long? He could have easily created everything in the blink...

Hard to put me in a box, huh? :P I am in agreement with all fundamental and core Christian doctrines. :wave:

Hilarious! :D

Here it is, abiogenesis and evolution, summed up in one sentence as far as my own view. Ready for it? Here it comes!!! ....... I believe God created all living things, through an evolutionary process. :wave:

Got it. Thanks. BTW, do all Mormons have access to the Temple, or is that reserved for a select group?
