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

I don't understand why they would be called drinks, if they were not meant to be drunk. aerocontrols - 03/10/2011 03:28:48 PM 1013 Views

There are Mormon literalists? Seriously? *NM* Legolas - 03/10/2011 03:02:18 PM 563 Views
In fairness, I wonder the same about Christian literalists. *NM* Ghavrel - 03/10/2011 07:57:19 PM 574 Views
Yeah, but if you're gonna believe absurdities... Legolas - 03/10/2011 09:02:32 PM 1006 Views
Are you trying to suggest that "Reformed" or some other brand of scientology is plausible? Joel - 04/10/2011 04:28:40 PM 964 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 918 Views

*sigh* to all of you above.... LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 03:06:21 AM 633 Views
I thought that was "Do not talk about /b/"? *NM* Great Lord of Chaos - 04/10/2011 03:12:52 AM 620 Views
i don't know, but if THAT is the first rule... LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 03:41:20 AM 576 Views
Please explain why you think we should consider you Christians. Tom - 03/10/2011 04:33:06 PM 1102 Views
you know, that does make me wonder though LadyLorraine - 03/10/2011 04:58:21 PM 994 Views
We're not as immovable as we are sometimes portrayed. Dannymac - 03/10/2011 05:27:17 PM 972 Views
"Even Christ didn't do that"? I can't agree. Legolas - 03/10/2011 09:00:34 PM 940 Views
I conceded your last point. Dannymac - 03/10/2011 10:14:28 PM 857 Views
Point of Anal Retentive Dissent: Joel - 04/10/2011 03:54:00 PM 879 Views
That concept is alien to the Christian theological understanding, however. Tom - 03/10/2011 10:18:55 PM 959 Views
I understand what both you and Danny are saying LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 12:19:57 AM 914 Views
Oh, that's very simple Tom - 04/10/2011 04:02:24 AM 922 Views
I honestly don't know what it would take. Dannymac - 04/10/2011 07:41:55 AM 940 Views
thank you, both of you LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 01:46:05 PM 926 Views
I love the Nicene Creed. It is such an excellent encapsulation. Rebekah - 03/10/2011 06:07:53 PM 1000 Views
Agreed. Joel - 04/10/2011 04:44:49 PM 886 Views

Was the twin banging and the gay wedding the same event? Joel - 04/10/2011 06:36:03 PM 978 Views
Yikes. Even for religion, that's more than a little crazy. Nate - 04/10/2011 03:47:56 PM 983 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 960 Views
A difference exists if only in continued unabashed affirmation of a rather distasteful doctrine. Joel - 04/10/2011 11:06:51 PM 954 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 523 Views
OK, within the Mormon context I can see that point. Joel - 05/10/2011 12:33:52 AM 880 Views
They can in quite a few denominations. *NM* Ghavrel - 05/10/2011 06:12:35 AM 579 Views
Whoops! You meant in LDS specifically. My mistake. *NM* Ghavrel - 05/10/2011 06:14:05 AM 541 Views
Right now I am not making an absolute statement but a relative one. Vivien - 05/10/2011 08:37:50 PM 762 Views
Yes, that is kind of the problem. Joel - 06/10/2011 12:13:27 AM 914 Views
Oh, you didn't know? Joe Smith said black people are cursed for following Satan. Tom - 05/10/2011 01:10:35 AM 930 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 878 Views
it's not that we're surprised because it's "novel" LadyLorraine - 04/10/2011 04:19:16 PM 924 Views

Well, the funny thing is Christian doctrine presupposes everyone, along with their ancestors... Joel - 04/10/2011 06:31:13 PM 828 Views
Yeah, circular logic is fun, isn't it? Tom - 05/10/2011 01:09:25 AM 897 Views
It it is nigh impossible to be a "non-Nicene Christian." Joel - 04/10/2011 03:12:06 PM 971 Views

Arianism is a bad comparison for arguing LDS=Christian. Joel - 06/10/2011 11:45:36 PM 844 Views
Wikipedia confirms what I already thought: you're off base with the monophysitism. Legolas - 07/10/2011 12:06:40 AM 1209 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 1319 Views
Monophysites, miaphysites, monothelites, etc. certainly accept the consubstantiality of God/Christ Larry - 07/10/2011 11:58:05 AM 895 Views
Virtually everyone has a more sound Christology than Mormons. Tom - 07/10/2011 06:45:45 PM 956 Views
Your ideas intrigue me and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter. Joel - 08/10/2011 05:30:38 PM 971 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 868 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 951 Views
I was just saying there were competing views. Gher - 07/10/2011 07:49:26 PM 1327 Views
Oh, there were definitely competing views, just not competing Christian views. Joel - 07/10/2011 09:26:22 PM 852 Views
That sounds really nice. Vivien - 04/10/2011 06:38:29 PM 915 Views

I really want an answer from a mormon. Vivien - 05/10/2011 08:48:49 PM 946 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 889 Views
Yeah, that's what I thought. Gher - 06/10/2011 05:43:57 PM 840 Views
