i have a bit of busy day planned here today....but when i did check on the newer posts on our forum there did seem like a lot of bickering....and little talking about people think...just a lot of what the "other guy" is like....
Look at this guys very first post. He spends it insulting Mormons (morons) and then asks why nobody takes things serious here...... I mean, I'll never take this guys serious ever again.
Par for the course.
when I check his number of his posts?......I count "1"
So based on this vast experience he has come to the conclusion that things need to change around here...
Came back just to answer this from you.....YES!! there needs to be some major changes around here! A shame Jill doesn't keep better tabs on this site because it seems to be running around like a chicken with its head off....anything goes it seems.
We all had to join at one time and yeah, one post to get ourselves going. This new member joined just today, and you get on this new member? I welcome them and any comments they may offer.
So.... You welcomed his comment that Mormons are morons?

I don't recall saying I welcomed his rude comment, did I? I did say I welcomed this person, (don't know if it is a man or woman), we can always use some new members here. If alan wants to report this person, he can do so. Whether this new member will post again, I don't know but the thread could have been worded more politely of course. Then again, sorry to say, I have a brother who I would definitely say is a moron and claims to be a Mormon when he's never attended church since he was 17, he's now almost 63.
Yes, you did.
Here is exactly what you said
"I welcome them and any comments they may offer"
By "more politely of course" I guessing you mean it was Ok to call us morons, he just should have used a word like, "mentally challenged"
if that was true, then anyone with true mental deficiencies will be automatically saved in the Celestial Kingdom wether he attended church or not.
and then you go on and on..
Look, dont make us guys who did nothing wrong into the guilty party here.
neverending did NOTHING wrong.....
She correctly pointed out that I should have welcomed the new poster in addition to my pointing out his error...and she correctly pointed out that the new poster should have worded is 1st comment differently.
thats all i could hope for....
So move on.....
Thank you alan for your support, it meant a lot.and then you go on and on..

I have amended my "IGNORE list to include that guy for the next week or so.
I dont mind when people criticize us over things that appear on the forum, but to criticize over things that dont appear here?...to blame you for what you did not write?....thats just not going to fly here with me.
If I criticize someone I do so based on what they actually posted in black and white...
I dont play favorites, Im not on any 'team"
I dont cut people slack when they post something that is in error, regardless if they agree with me most of the time or not.
and....I dont try to read the person's mind.
Ah... No... it might of been a Freudian Slip on her part, but she did not say the new poster should have worded their comment "differently" only "more politely".and then you go on and on..

It's just like JohnT getting all over my case for calling someone "silly" then turning right around and calling me "puerile" which is the nice form of "silly" as though there was a difference.
Frankly I'd rather be called silly
"Did not say"???
I simply don't have time for this.
I'm too old, and too tired to be always wishing for interesting topics that really challenge me to come up with new ways to express my views to others.
Mormons aren't very deep thinkers. Why would anyone want to follow a punk like Smith - who has been documented to be a total fake? There has to be a vested interest. More and more people are actually looking up the history of the cult, and of Smith, and are stalking off - Mormonism is a dying cult.
Oath formerly taken by Mormons promising not to reveal secret Mormon temple rituals: "Should we do so, we agree to have our breasts cut open and our hearts and vitals torn from our bodies and given to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field."
it just think that " morons" is a poitless attack...it is against the rules....shows a lack of cl***...And is bad manners.
and yes....im going to watching this new member closely....for they have already gotten off to bad start and if they think they can keepn getting away with name-calling they are in for trouble.
Kinda of an age give-away too.it just think that " morons" is a poitless attack...it is against the rules....shows a lack of cl***...And is bad manners.

He will be told to knock off the insults and stay inside the examination of the teachings of mormonism.. Still the LDS here will take exception to the non personal examination of the doctrines that are uniquely mormon. IHS jim
Ok questions.. One I have been asking since I first signed on here.. How many God are there for this world? Is the Father a separate God from Jesus, Is Jesus a God at all? Is the Holy (Ghost) Spirit God, Is He God at all?
Here are a few more..
Have all men sinned? If it isn't our nature to sin why is it that everyone sins? How do we, or how does God deal with our sin? If it was enough for Jesus to sweat so profusely that the sweat dripped off Him as though it were great drops of blood why did he have to die at all? Or does forgiveness of sin required actual blood to be shed and thereby require His death?
Does God have the power to create anything or is he just a good builder? Why is it that mormonism believes that the elements are eternal but God isn't? While the elements always existed as the elements, God didn't always exist as God.. Is that true? If Not why did Joseph Smith tell us that He would explain how God became God and that once He was a man just like Jesus but on a different world..
Are we saved by God's grace through faith and not by works? If works are required to gain salvation just how many works are needed to be preformed to reach the minimum amount of works required for salvation?
These same questions have been asked many times and yet no one has offered an answer that has any Biblical authority behind the answers.. Want to try again? I have been waiting for years I'll bet I wait even longer.. IHS jim
I've longed for an answer to this question. How much good works must a Mormon do to know that their salvation is in the bag? I once asked my Dad but he never had an answer for me. He always thought I was stupid especially since I was only a girl.Ok questions.. One I have been asking since I first signed on here.. How many God are there for this world?

I'd be a moron if I tried to answer that question. However this question will remain un-answered along with how many mormon gods are there out there in the universe?
All works that you are capable of fulfilling and that you have knowledge of will be required of you for your salvation.
Now, do you really want me to answer this one as well?
