It's the mindset of a parent, who is the closets thing to God-like love we humans will ever experience: you know that the people you love will make their own choices, know that some of them will be bad, and know because you love them you must not cage them.Very, very Mormon mindset.
Any being who robs another of choice-- ANY choice-- is a despicable monster. Any yes, that includes stupid choices, bad choices, choices that result in misery and to hurt, choices that refuse salvation. The being you describe-- one that forces salvation on people-- is an unworthy tyrant.
No, no, no. That's not how it works. You do not understand my beliefs at all.

Freedom is the right to choose, even if it to choose death. You advocate a deity who denies the right to choose and hence cages.Being set free is not being caged.

Phoebe, this all due respect, you do not understand the first thing about Mormon beliefs.I didn't come here to discuss individuals' beliefs. I'm talking about Mormonism. Do you believe in the Mormon gods? If not, why do you identify yourself as a Mormon?

Freedom also includes the right to reject truth and hence become caged.The truth sets us FREE.

Any deity who denies the right of people to reject them denies freedom and offers only a cage.
Everyone has the chance to reject God, and always will. From the never-believer-adament-fighter to the greatest disciple. God does not cage.Those who do not believe are already condemned.

God does not cage.
Unbelievers are condemned already.
You are not listening to me....Satan does. But Jesus has the key.
Kidnappers who exist in this world have NOTHING to do with this discussion about the clear teachings of the Bible. And I haven't said the topic is related to cults.
You are not listening to me....
2 Nephi 28
3 For it shall come to pass in that day that the churches which are built up, and not unto the Lord, when the one shall say unto the other: Behold, I, I am the Lord’s; and the others shall say: I, I am the Lord’s; and thus shall every one say that hath built up churches, and not unto the Lord—
Mormons who believe their church's teachings assume that they have entered the path to eternal life by being baptized.
1 Nephi 14
10 And he said unto me: Behold there are save two churches only; the one is the church of the Lamb of God, and the other is the church of the devil; wherefore, whoso belongeth not to the church of the Lamb of God belongeth to that great church, which is the mother of abominations; and she is the harlot of all the earth.
Doctrine and Covenants 1
29 And after having received the record of the Nephites, yea, even my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., might have power to translate through the mercy of God, by the power of God, the Book of Mormon.
30 And also those to whom these commandments were given, might have power to lay the foundation of thischurch, and to bring it forth out of obscurity and out ofdarkness, the only true and living church upon the face of the whole earth, with which I, the Lord, am well pleased, speaking unto the church collectively and not individually—
31 For I the Lord cannot look upon sin with the least degree of allowance;
32 Nevertheless, he that repents and does the commandments of the Lord shall be forgiven;
When you don't reply to a person in any regards that relates to what they're saying, that's not listening.I don't agree with you; that's different than ignoring someone.
