Well, if Christians don’t like Romney, he just became my first choice for president.

They are just arguing about whose imaginary friends are better. Smith was a scam artist. Xtians have been at it longer. Nonsense is all is. Mohammed was a crazy pedophile.

It always amuses me deeply when any religious person claims that only religion can provide the “eternal, unchanging truth”. Taking for example christianity into account, which is now fragmented into more than 30000 different denominations which often contradict each other in even their most basic teachings, but each of them claims that they are right (“have a broader circle of truth”, yeah, sure…)

It is deeply ironic to observe that of course religion itself is subject to cultural evolution. Mormonism for example is simply a mutation in the christianity meme which managed to survive because it found a socio-cultural niche in Utah. Protestantism started with Martin Luthers wish to reform the catholic church. But as religion isn’t “intelligently designed”, something completely different happened that nobody wanted around 1520: Christianity split into different species.

aren’t all those that believe in, and follow the teachings of Christ “Christians”? In the purest, most accurate sense of the word Mormons are very much Christians. Simply ruling them out because they don’t subscribe to the 4th century Nicene Creed (a committee of men) and believe in the teachings of the Bible - foremost that God still speaks to man via a Prophet - doesn’t excise them from Christianity.

The author clearly has a bias against the faith and would rather deal in out of context beliefs in a mocking tone.

@Steffen - your argument is the entire premise of the Mormon faith. All religion started in one place, with Adam & Eve in the garden, taught directly by God himself. After that, the adversary and Men spun up their own versions of religion to compete with God’s true church, led by his Prophet. After the death of Jesus Christ and the prophets and apostles, the “church” organization and priesthood authority were removed from the earth. Mormon’s refer to this as the Apostasy. A period of time when revelation from God through a prophet ceased. Joseph Smith was the first prophet of the modern dispensation and assisted in the restoration of the original church of Jesus Christ in our day. It’s the same church that existed primitively, just re-organized post-apostasy.

Christians can have each other.  They deserve each other, even their idiotic, even more gullible, red-headed mormon step-brothers.  You have to suffer from a major delusion to believe in the biblical god in the first place.  You have to absolutely love being deluded to further buy-in to the transparently stupid mormon version of events.

Many thanks to iposty above for demonstrating exactly the qualities of religious thinking that Sfeffan referred to above.

I will repeat this comment I have made before.  Was not Mormonism begun by alleged bleatings from the prophet Moroni?  Why are they then Mormons and not Morons?

as an ex-mormon, i think understand both sides and really just it’s a matter of semantics. i think of mormonism as christianity 2.0 (not necessarily better, just newer and more shiny…)
