Re: What Mormon Theology Is Really All About Cartoon

This is what Mormons believe in part, not the dribble of an angry ex-communicated (former) Mormon. If you want to know more about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) go to http://mormon.org or http://lds.org/

Central to the beliefs of the Church is that Jesus Christ loves all his children. As an expression of his love he visited the peoples of the American Continents also. This history is found in the Book of Mormon Another Testament of Jesus Christ. This video is a segment from the Book Third Nephi one of the prophets in the Book of Mormon.

How is a child able to opt out of religious indoctrination by their parents? Does the constitutional right to the freedom of religion not apply to them? Are they less than free people? I think the willingness of religious people to exploit the credulity of young children demonstrates a terrible lack of moral fiber. A decent and honorable person would realize that no child is in a position of evaluate religious dogma objectively and would actively shelter them from it until they were adults.

@ananiasacts - How is a child able to opt out of a secular indoctrination by their society? Does the constitution protect them and their parents from persecution from anti-religious Zealots who find no shame in open pornography, yet find the cross a disgusting display? The constitution protects the right of religious people and non-religious people to practice their religion according to their conscience. continued...

@ananiasacts - It is the right of parents to raise their children with the tools they will need to be successful in life? You obviously are free to make your choices, were you raised in a religious home? Christopher Hitchens was and found his way out of religion just fine. I personally think that secularism is the most damaging sect of society and that religion is the bastion of hope.

@ananiasacts - The argument and statements you have made could easily, in fact more easily reversed. Children now, more than ever need a moral compass to guide them through the vicissitudes of life.

@caesarmoridon Certainly you do not believe that we are all going to be part of the apple. The Godhead (God the Father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost) are one in purpose and mission. Their mission is the Immortality and Eternal Life of mankind. They want us to become like them and allow us to participate in the great work of creation. God is Love and His Love is eternal and changing. We can be like him and are commanded to do so in Matt 5:48. We are not a leaf or an apple, but gods in embryo.

@River101010 - There is also the analogy of the cloverleaf where they are one leaf but three leaves. Where Catholic based Christianity gets it wrong is in the understanding the nature of God and our likeness to God. The scriptures are wrought with examples and statements speaking of God as our Father, as us being created in his image, describing us as having the potential of Godhood. In John 17, we read the great intercessory prayer where he prays for us to be one as He and his Father are one...

[bridtm]

@caesarmoridon: thanks for posting this beautiful video. it is at the heart of what makes mormonism different and what the book of mormon teaches about jesus christ and the new world. regardless of one's beliefs, i find all the unkind mischaracterizations of mormonism distasteful and mean-spirited. i also think the effort to discredit mormonsim through deliberately misleading information and blatant lies unchristian. thanks for posting something accurate and fair about the mormon faith.

Main stream Christianity is more about self then God. They are more interested in their one week excursions to help others in other countries then to help the pore in their own congregations. They have no infrastructure and have no idea where they are going. How can you tell a church of God They love their neighbor as themselves to do this you must love God. I know no other church that does this better than the lds church Even though they seem to have some very odd ideas. Should I join???

John 10:30 I and my Father are one. you used one part of srcipute but forgot this part hence the trinity... God the father God the son God the holy spirit. 3 parts but make one whole, take an apple for example it has for basic principles a core meat and skin(flesh) now all are a part of an apple but have different textures tastes and "jobs". Jesus is the Son of God and is God in the same way an apple has apple meat and an apple core, same apple just different parts to make it such.
