Not deleted by me. As I explained before, there were some I deleted that violated my policies. If a post is on the topic of the Book of Mormon, off-topic rants about why Mormons are a cult don't belong there, just like the one you made here anonymously that I will probably delete later when I get around to reviewing comments. Some deletions were here for being completely off-topic. The others were deleted for being duplicates or redundant. You got your jabs in, several times, actually, and were not viciously censored, contrary to your claims. Over 20 lengthy comments from you on one post is not exactly toxic censorship. <br /><br />Basics of etiquette here: Civil, on-topic dialog is the standard. Shouting offensive remarks is not participating in civil dialog. Off-topic posts are frowned upon. Links to anti-Mormon sites are generally unwelcome. Long essays posted in numerous chunks is not a civil dialog. If you can't make your point in 4000 characters, you aren't going to make it in 80,0000 split across 20 comments in a row. <br /><br />You're angry. We get that. You don't like the LDS religion. Got it. You think we're hypocrites because the Nauvoo temple, like many European churches, was designed with a symbol of a 5-pointed star long held as a symbol of Christ in Christianity but also used by pagans and more recently used by outright Satanists for evil purposes. Yes, unfortunate, and your advice that we not use it has been duly noted. And you think we're a cult and I'm toxic for having deleted a few redundant and off-topic rants. Got it. <br /><br />If this is such a toxic place for you, I'll gently suggest that you don't need to hang out here. A healthy hero's welcome awaits you in the RFM halls, where all LDS arguments have been so totally torn to shred that it's not even funny.Jeff Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08776493593387402607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-88207066981468910152011-06-05T02:44:34.504-05:002011-06-05T02:44:34.504-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-50326163132637147122011-06-03T16:52:10.026-05:002011-06-03T16:52:10.026-05:00Once again, you have deleted my revised post witho...Once again, you have deleted my revised post without comment or any sign that it had been deleted. Why? What are your objections? I consider it very poor form to act with such capriciousness and without explanation. “Unwelcome behavior.”<br /><br />I repeat what I posted on another page of your blog: You claim to have a blog that is open to both believers and non-believers, alike, as long as they follow the rules. You have demonstrated, however, that you are inconsistent and hypocritical regarding your own rules.<br /><br />Yes, it is your blog and you can do what you want. However, what you do and don’t do speaks volumes. It seems to me you had quite the emotional reaction to have taken such a radical decision as to remove my post in this manner.<br /><br />Your censorship is unwarranted and toxic, if you are trying to discuss Mormon issues openly and honestly. Obviously, you are too invested in your beliefs to conduct a rational and objective discussion about them. Therefore, I have lost respect for you and your blog because of your obvious bias, your censorship, and the logical fallacies therein.<br /><br />“The truth is that NOTHING is, or ever could be, a problem for a huge segment of believers of religion.

Jesus did not teach us to use feelings to know if something is truth, Jesus taught that we can know the truth by continuing in his words (John.8:31-32). I think the Bible is a much more reliable standard than my 'feelings' or 'testimony' or your 'feelings' or 'testimony'. <br /><br />It is my testimony that the Book of Mormon contains a different gospel than the Bible, the Book of Mormon reveals “it is by grace that we are saved, after all we can do” (2Nephi 25:23) and the Bible reveals “by grace are ye saved through faith” (Eph.2:8). The Book of Mormon contains doctrines that are contrary to the doctrines of the early apostolic church like "Adam fell that men might be" (2 Nephi 2:25) and "infant baptism is an evil abomination" (Moroni 8).Johnnyhttp://comparing-views.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-76084077790615616862010-03-25T16:55:57.848-05:002010-03-25T16:55:57.848-05:00Thank you.

You are very gifted, but remember that it is better to know God than just to know about him; or that the things that the heart knows the mind does not comprehend. I would like to comment also; and this is not my opinion. It is the living truth, that I have also discovered that the Book of Mormon is an interactive book. You do what it tells you to do with real intent and it talks back to you until you receive a fullness of its veracity. It is the sweetest fruit I have tasted. I never thought that I could be a shadow of Alma, Moroni and even a shadow of the Lord Jesus Christ himself. Many people gaze at the account of the Book of Mormon with amazement, they know as I know that it is the word of God, some take is as a warning for our day and age and see the parallelism; and others take it as a historical foot print hoping to pinpoint Tegucigalpa; or Jacobugath in the province of Babylon called DURA by the river ULAI, or by the lake of Jehovah, but for me, it a living proof that the book of Mormon is nothing but the truth nearly word by word. In fact, I am a living product of it, because I am a direct descendant of them, meaning, the house of Joseph and also of the Mulekites, the seed of Zedeckiah.

I have studied the Book of Mormon and have several friends who are LDS. These questions are in no way meant to degrade LDS, but to bring forth a fair discussion. I know as a Christian, it is important to provide evidence for the faith we possess. <br /><br /><br />1. When Christ died, did darkness cover the land for three days or for three hours? (Luke 23:44 and 3 Nephi 8:19, 23). <br />How can you believe both books if they have contradicting stories?<br /><br /><br />2.Why are Greek names such as Lachoneus, Timothy, Jonas, and Alpha & Omega in a book that should have absolutely no Greek influence?<br /><br /><br />3.If the Book of Mormon is true, why do Indians fail to turn white when they become Mormons? (2 Nephi 30:6, before the 1981 revision). If God inspired the BOM why were over 4,000 changes neccessary?<br /><br /><br /><br />4. LDS believe in both the Bible and the BOM. In Revelation, God clearly states that nothing should be added to the Bible. Why would God contradict himself?<br /><br />These are just a few of the basic questions I have concerning LDS. <br />Thank you for your input.<br />~TaraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-22823042212365279072010-02-26T13:26:58.750-06:002010-02-26T13:26:58.750-06:00The Book of Mormon is the earliest of the defining...The Book of Mormon is the earliest of the defining publications of the Latter Day Saint movement.

Maybe they were amongst the deleted ones. I don't have a problem with other forms of Christianity (I am Catholic). However, I have a huge gaping problem with a church that bases its docrine on a book that is not supported at all by science. The Catholic church pours considerable money into research (SCIENTIFIC!) every year. We welcome archeological scrutiny. We often initiate it ourselves. The BOM is not supported by a shred of evidence, though it makes many claims that should be provable. There is no evidence of any Jewish immigration to the Americas, or of any animals that are referred to by the BOM. Did you know honey bees were brought over by colonists? Yet they are referred to in the BoM. And a thousand years before they actually existed in America! Along with several other forms of fauna and animals. There have been no findings of any of the cities in the BoM, though there have been many ways to prove the testimony of the Bible. Also, the BoM references many of the novels that were being published at the the time, and does not have a consistent author tone, mostly because Joseph Smith was copying out of other books. Also, the LDS chuch has revised this so called "Holy Book" so many times its ridiculous. So, how does your "burning in the bosom" stand up to science? I really do want to know. I personally cannot believe a faith that has so much humanity in it, and so many errors that can be proven by humans, but perhaps you know something I dont. I welcome your answer. <br /><br />http://www.catholic.com/library/Problems_with_the_Book_of_Mormon.asp<br /><br />And that is just ONE of the websites that name the many inconsistencies of the BoM.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-37388472928614525802009-04-10T16:57:00.000-05:002009-04-10T16:57:00.000-05:00Dear Jeff,Thank you for your blog.

I'm glad that you at least have a very good understanding of the doctrine already and that everything you said was correct. I'll share with you some thoughts of mine, though they are nothing authoritative. <BR/><BR/>Our scriptures state that God's ultimate purpose for his children is to become like he is and partake of His glory (through the grace of Christ). We don't believe that God made us because He was lonely and wanted us around, but because wants us to be happy and give us all that he has. If God is good, surely He wants us to be like He is. I'm not going to go into that more, but it is what we believe and its in all of the scriptures. Christ understood His Father's plan and knew that we could only achieve this if it was our choice to do so. Satan's plan contradicted the very purpose of our creation and existance by taking away our choices. Understanding what the purpose of our existance is is the key to understanding this. So his plan really was bad because we wouldn't have grown or had a chance to follow the Father's plan of salvation for us. <BR/>That said, I have also wondered what would have happened had Satan chosen not to rebel. Well, a whole third followed Satan's philosophy. I like to think of the war in heaven like a war would happen here. Those spirits had a philosophy that was contrary to God's plan and followed their leader. They weren't duped. They knew what the consequences would be. I think that if Lucifer wouldn't have led this revolt, one of the other third would have. <BR/>Interestingly, I talked to a devil worshipper once and asked why they worship the devil (you obviously acknowledge a belief in Christ) and they said that he is just as important in God's plan as Jesus. Obviously not true, but Satan does play a role in the destiny of mankind. I think that God knew that there would be opposition to his plan. He let the envitable dissenters buffet the children of man. It just our nature. But He still let them and us make our own choices, and they chose darkness and misery and evil. Misery meaning shut out from God and from the ability to grow to their potential. And Satan, being evil and selfish, seeks for all to be like he is. He has power and has dominion over those who follow him. He couldn't have his way and he was not going to be subject to Christ. Humility and love (not pride and hate) are required to live with God and receive of His glory, but Satan is obviously devoid of these things. I don't think he really decided "hey, I want to be miserable for eternity." Its just what he is, just like how God is love. Why would any person choose to be miserable? And yet we do. God's plan is a plan of happiness, and those who act against it bring unhappiness upon themselves. It's really a beautiful plan. Also note that in no place does any of our doctrine teach that Satan has a definite foreknowledge of all things, nor does he know all things. He might be intelligent enough to decieve souls and smart as to the things of this world, but beyond that I don't know.<BR/><BR/>For the second part, I glory in the knowledge that our Heavenly Father is merciful to those who seek his mercy, and he is a righteous judge. To demonstrate his mercy, prophets in our time have taught that men will be judged according to their deeds, and have a place prepared for them where they belong. I strongly encourage you to read Doctrine and Covenants section 76, which was a revelation regarding the Kingdom of God and the "degrees of glory." It's not straight heaven and hell. And I don't really believe that God really "damns" people. I think that they do it themselves, when they chose to break the commandments of God and live contrary to the plan of happiness. Its your choice. It's my choice. Who you are and what you desire determines where you go. And God sent his Son to atone for our sins and to be an example for us--teaching us what we must to recieve eternal life. He did what for us what we could not do. He has told us what we in turn need to do to recieve all that the Father has and invites EVERYBODY to do so. <BR/>Now I know that talking about salvation will spark debates, as I have already seen on this blog almost all the time. But I believe in this plan. The scriptures--even the Bible, which I love--teaches many of these things. But thes truthes were lost and have been restored. To me it makes the most sense and satisfactorily answers all of the important questions. I hope this is helpful in some way. It felt good to express at least.Lamdaddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10550528525997628134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-21262427881603765072009-02-19T16:20:00.000-06:002009-02-19T16:20:00.000-06:00Here this is still a touchy subject, but not so to...Here this is still a touchy subject, but not so touchy as the Mother =P<BR/><BR/>Ok first off, this is not anti-mormon crap (which I loathe) these are my very personal questions about the Mormon faith. Im very sincere in my approach to Mormonism, quite frankly because I identify with most of its concepts and morals. So please know that these questions, though they are of a curious nature, are purely from my own thoughts and I would deeply value any wise insights. Please keep in mind that I have asked quite a few Mormons these same questions, most of whom gave me very basic answers which do not satisfy. I do not fault them for not having well thought answers. I understand that some Mormons will not have difinitive answers to some of the more inquisitive questions. But my hope is that this will reach someone who has thought about these things... maybe someone who took a look under the same rock as me. And please know that I am basing my questions on what I have learned personally, from my own studies on mormon doctrine, attendance to church meetings, and discussions with devout mormons (bishops, missionarys, home-teachers, common members etc). So to those very scholarly Mormons, please feel free to correct my questions if they have incorrect doctrine within them, or any common misconceptions you detect. I am just trying to understand and find the correct doctrine on the subject matter below, not to prove it wrong or right. It is ofcourse a matter of faith in the end... and I have respect for that.<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>My first question deals with the beginings (of God's created children) in the pre-existance. Im sure it is commonly understood that there was a council in the pre-existance, according to mormon doctrine, which we (disembodied spirits at the time) were present for, or had a part in. Our desire was to become like our heavenly parents, and so our elder spirit brothers Jesus and Lucifer (and possibly others?) devised plans. Two plans to be exact. Jesus had one plan, and Lucifer another. In Lucifer's plan, we would all take on mortal bodies to live and die on the earth, without the agency of free will to sin, therefore being forced into a celestial state after death. On the other hand, in Jesus's plan, we would all take on mortal bodies to live and die on the earth, with the agency of free will to sin. But Jesus knew that every single one of us would sin, so he volunteered to take all those sins upon himself in the flesh vicariously, which would eventually enable us to reach a celestial state like our heavenly parents. Only His intension was to glorify the Father, not himself. And Lucifer on the other hand wanted to be worshipped as a god, and keep the glory for himself. Ok heres where it gets tricky for me. In order for Jesus's plan to work, an opposition was needed. Someone needs to do the tempting on earth, otherwise he wouldn't need to die for anyone. This would imply that Lucifer had a part to play in Jesus's plan, as that nessecary opposition. But wait... what about poor ol Lue? That plan had him preconcieved as a villian. Else-wise it had someone concieved as the opposition... but who? This puzzles me. Even makes me wonder if Lucifer's plan was all that bad. So can anyone make this more clear for me? Is this a valid question, or am I missing some information about the pre-existance?<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>The other option, is that we do not need opposition to sin at all... that by default we know right and wrong, and can choose to do either without an opposing force. Which would explaine why Lucifer had pride enough to want all that glory, and why 1/3 of us sided with him. But if this is the case... then why is Lucifer here tempting anyone at all? And if Lucifer really wanted to thwart Jesus's plan, then why not do everything in his power to prevent the crucifixion and atonement? The devil was said to be with Judas around the time Judas betrayed Christ, if I remember correctly. This just sounds very counter-productive for a being so intelligent.<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>Which brings to me to another question. Lucifer is described as a being of great intelligence and power... one of the Father's firstborn, the "son of the morning". The "Lightbringer" or "Lightbearer". Why would a being so divine choose to be miserable? Why would he fight a battle with a definite knowledge that he cannot win? Why would he even want to hurt any of his little brothers and sisters... even to an eternity of damnation? I mean ETERNITY. What is the life-span of a human compared to eternity? Why would loving eternal parents, God and Goddess, with infinite understanding, damn anyone to an eternity of misery for mistakes made over the course of 100 years or so in a temporal body? Or even for sins in the pre-existance for that matter... like pride. That seems too contradictory to the nature of a God. How is it even possible to really offend a God in the first place? It doesn't make much sense to me that beings of a finite comprehension, like humans, would be judged so eternally, infinitly, for finite deeds done in a finite comprehension/body.<BR/><BR/>I have more questions but I think I have asked too many for one blog as it is haha. So my other questions will have to wait for later.Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10198650638963594583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-57826365773639249022009-02-19T16:18:00.000-06:002009-02-19T16:18:00.000-06:00I posted a comment with an experience I had, thoug...I posted a comment with an experience I had, though maybe better left not revealed... it really makes many mormons uncomfortable so I shall avoid the subject of the Heavenly Mother unless Jeff says its okay to be in his blogs.Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10198650638963594583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-10188232603917971572009-02-16T11:40:00.000-06:002009-02-16T11:40:00.000-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10198650638963594583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139169.post-82737219133986578702008-08-16T05:18:00.000-05:002008-08-16T05:18:00.000-05:00"Did Joseph Smith walk as Jesus walked?

Did Jesus look at stones for advice, or was He inspired by the Holy Spirit?"<BR/><BR/>I have it on good authority that Joseph Smith died and now lives in good standing with Jesus Christ and I know this by the gift of the Holy Spirit that Christ gave as a gift of advice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
