8. I believe all religions come from the same root message (Just be cool dudes to one another) and that the rest is just details. Your thoughts on the massive waste of time people spend arguing about these details?

I think the correct version is "Be excellent to each other"

also "Party On"
Hollywood has the best moral compass, because it has compassion.

There are Mormon literalists? Seriously? *NM* Legolas - 03/10/2011 03:02:18 PM 597 Views
In fairness, I wonder the same about Christian literalists. *NM* Ghavrel - 03/10/2011 07:57:19 PM 621 Views
Yeah, but if you're gonna believe absurdities... Legolas - 03/10/2011 09:02:32 PM 1102 Views
Are you trying to suggest that "Reformed" or some other brand of scientology is plausible? Joel - 04/10/2011 04:28:40 PM 1059 Views
Actually, no. It'd be like laughing at... Hosea. Or Nemeiah. It's just an old name. Gher - 04/10/2011 12:30:57 AM 1019 Views

*sigh* to all of you above.... LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 03:06:21 AM 665 Views
I thought that was "Do not talk about /b/"? *NM* Great Lord of Chaos - 04/10/2011 03:12:52 AM 651 Views
i don't know, but if THAT is the first rule... LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 03:41:20 AM 620 Views
Please explain why you think we should consider you Christians. Tom - 03/10/2011 04:33:06 PM 1188 Views
you know, that does make me wonder though LadyLorraine - 03/10/2011 04:58:21 PM 1079 Views
We're not as immovable as we are sometimes portrayed. Dannymac - 03/10/2011 05:27:17 PM 1062 Views
"Even Christ didn't do that"? I can't agree. Legolas - 03/10/2011 09:00:34 PM 1046 Views
I conceded your last point. Dannymac - 03/10/2011 10:14:28 PM 941 Views
Point of Anal Retentive Dissent: Joel - 04/10/2011 03:54:00 PM 966 Views
That concept is alien to the Christian theological understanding, however. Tom - 03/10/2011 10:18:55 PM 1052 Views
I understand what both you and Danny are saying LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 12:19:57 AM 999 Views
Oh, that's very simple Tom - 04/10/2011 04:02:24 AM 1015 Views
I honestly don't know what it would take. Dannymac - 04/10/2011 07:41:55 AM 1017 Views
thank you, both of you LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 01:46:05 PM 1006 Views
I love the Nicene Creed. It is such an excellent encapsulation. Rebekah - 03/10/2011 06:07:53 PM 1090 Views
Agreed. Joel - 04/10/2011 04:44:49 PM 970 Views
The absolute best part about your post (plus the best thing about Mo's/LDS's) Jeordam - 03/10/2011 09:02:17 PM 1044 Views
Glad you enjoyed it Tom - 03/10/2011 10:10:39 PM 1129 Views
Though they can cause interesting changes in patterns. Dannymac - 03/10/2011 10:16:55 PM 1059 Views
We believe that Jesus Christ is the Savior of all mankind, and the only way back to God. Gher - 04/10/2011 01:29:30 AM 1114 Views
If you think the Book of Mormon was well-written, there is really little left to discuss. Tom - 04/10/2011 03:57:08 AM 1285 Views

Was the twin banging and the gay wedding the same event? Joel - 04/10/2011 06:36:03 PM 1077 Views
Yikes. Even for religion, that's more than a little crazy. Nate - 04/10/2011 03:47:56 PM 1069 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 1046 Views
A difference exists if only in continued unabashed affirmation of a rather distasteful doctrine. Joel - 04/10/2011 11:06:51 PM 1031 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 563 Views
OK, within the Mormon context I can see that point. Joel - 05/10/2011 12:33:52 AM 980 Views
They can in quite a few denominations. *NM* Ghavrel - 05/10/2011 06:12:35 AM 616 Views
Whoops! You meant in LDS specifically. My mistake. *NM* Ghavrel - 05/10/2011 06:14:05 AM 576 Views
Right now I am not making an absolute statement but a relative one. Vivien - 05/10/2011 08:37:50 PM 831 Views
Yes, that is kind of the problem. Joel - 06/10/2011 12:13:27 AM 1004 Views
Oh, you didn't know? Joe Smith said black people are cursed for following Satan. Tom - 05/10/2011 01:10:35 AM 1022 Views
I guess this is a variation on Hams punishment; Ghav, at least should know better than to be shocked Joel - 04/10/2011 04:13:59 PM 971 Views
it's not that we're surprised because it's "novel" LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 04:19:16 PM 1012 Views

Well, the funny thing is Christian doctrine presupposes everyone, along with their ancestors... Joel - 04/10/2011 06:31:13 PM 950 Views

Wikipedia confirms what I already thought: you're off base with the monophysitism. Legolas - 07/10/2011 12:06:40 AM 1299 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 1396 Views
Monophysites, miaphysites, monothelites, etc. certainly accept the consubstantiality of God/Christ Larry - 07/10/2011 11:58:05 AM 990 Views
Virtually everyone has a more sound Christology than Mormons. Tom - 07/10/2011 06:45:45 PM 1045 Views
Your ideas intrigue me and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter. Joel - 08/10/2011 05:30:38 PM 1059 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 958 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 1040 Views
I was just saying there were competing views. Gher - 07/10/2011 07:49:26 PM 1425 Views
Oh, there were definitely competing views, just not competing Christian views. Joel - 07/10/2011 09:26:22 PM 939 Views
That sounds really nice. Vivien - 04/10/2011 06:38:29 PM 1019 Views

Good luck with that; just because I can see no explanation save that I offered does not preclude one Joel - 06/10/2011 07:03:50 AM 945 Views
Yeah, that's what I thought. Gher - 06/10/2011 05:43:57 PM 939 Views
