Glad you enjoyed it Tom Send a noteboard - 03/10/2011 10:10:39 PM
I don't have a problem with Mormons in their politics or even their lifestyle (not that I would want to live it). They are decent and honest people. I'm happy they're so solidly in the "red state" mentality.

Theologically, however...well, I've already said it.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

There are Mormon literalists? Seriously? *NM* Legolas - 03/10/2011 03:02:18 PM 700 Views

Are you trying to suggest that "Reformed" or some other brand of scientology is plausible? Joel - 04/10/2011 04:28:40 PM 1277 Views

Please explain why you think we should consider you Christians. Tom - 03/10/2011 04:33:06 PM 1422 Views
you know, that does make me wonder though LadyLorraine - 03/10/2011 04:58:21 PM 1295 Views
We're not as immovable as we are sometimes portrayed. Dannymac - 03/10/2011 05:27:17 PM 1270 Views
"Even Christ didn't do that"? I can't agree. Legolas - 03/10/2011 09:00:34 PM 1282 Views
I conceded your last point. Dannymac - 03/10/2011 10:14:28 PM 1135 Views
Point of Anal Retentive Dissent: Joel - 04/10/2011 03:54:00 PM 1200 Views
That concept is alien to the Christian theological understanding, however. Tom - 03/10/2011 10:18:55 PM 1283 Views
I understand what both you and Danny are saying LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 12:19:57 AM 1230 Views
Oh, that's very simple Tom - 04/10/2011 04:02:24 AM 1280 Views
I honestly don't know what it would take. Dannymac - 04/10/2011 07:41:55 AM 1223 Views
thank you, both of you LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 01:46:05 PM 1220 Views
I love the Nicene Creed. It is such an excellent encapsulation. Rebekah - 03/10/2011 06:07:53 PM 1311 Views
Agreed. Joel - 04/10/2011 04:44:49 PM 1184 Views

Was the twin banging and the gay wedding the same event? Joel - 04/10/2011 06:36:03 PM 1303 Views
Yikes. Even for religion, that's more than a little crazy. Nate - 04/10/2011 03:47:56 PM 1288 Views
I don't think there's much of a difference in crazy as opposed to other more mainstream religions. Vivien - 04/10/2011 07:08:06 PM 1257 Views
A difference exists if only in continued unabashed affirmation of a rather distasteful doctrine. Joel - 04/10/2011 11:06:51 PM 1251 Views
Then why can't women be priests? Or enter the altar? The curse on Eve is very much in place. *NM* Aeryn - 05/10/2011 12:27:04 AM 676 Views
OK, within the Mormon context I can see that point. Joel - 05/10/2011 12:33:52 AM 1197 Views
They can in quite a few denominations. *NM* Ghavrel - 05/10/2011 06:12:35 AM 709 Views
Whoops! You meant in LDS specifically. My mistake. *NM* Ghavrel - 05/10/2011 06:14:05 AM 702 Views
Right now I am not making an absolute statement but a relative one. Vivien - 05/10/2011 08:37:50 PM 1067 Views
Yes, that is kind of the problem. Joel - 06/10/2011 12:13:27 AM 1205 Views
Oh, you didn't know? Joe Smith said black people are cursed for following Satan. Tom - 05/10/2011 01:10:35 AM 1257 Views

Arianism is a bad comparison for arguing LDS=Christian. Joel - 06/10/2011 11:45:36 PM 1195 Views
Wikipedia confirms what I already thought: you're off base with the monophysitism. Legolas - 07/10/2011 12:06:40 AM 1514 Views
I had not realized it was that late, but used it only as an example of multitudinous controversies. Joel - 07/10/2011 01:03:56 AM 1641 Views
Monophysites, miaphysites, monothelites, etc. certainly accept the consubstantiality of God/Christ Larry - 07/10/2011 11:58:05 AM 1228 Views
Virtually everyone has a more sound Christology than Mormons. Tom - 07/10/2011 06:45:45 PM 1244 Views
Your ideas intrigue me and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter. Joel - 08/10/2011 05:30:38 PM 1252 Views
I can see that with the Monothelites (can see their appeal, in fact,) but not Monophysites. Joel - 07/10/2011 09:43:27 PM 1190 Views
Tempting as it is to prove Joel wrong (since he so frequently is), I need to take issue with this. Tom - 07/10/2011 06:59:13 PM 1267 Views
I was just saying there were competing views. Gher - 07/10/2011 07:49:26 PM 1653 Views
Oh, there were definitely competing views, just not competing Christian views. Joel - 07/10/2011 09:26:22 PM 1164 Views
That sounds really nice. Vivien - 04/10/2011 06:38:29 PM 1267 Views
