@reformed1689 I’ll be direct here: I’m interested in thoughtful and respectful conversation, preferably centered on Christ. This thread is not that.

I’m sorry, but I’m not interested in straw man conversation. Have a nice day.

I’m sorry…. But this response is only worthy of an eye roll. I answered respectfully and thoughtfully. If you want to just blatantly ignore answers and accuse others of being unthinking and brainwashed… yep, eye roll it is.

People in scripture can quote other scriptures (regularly done in the Book of Mormon), and God can say the same message twice (also regularly done in the Book of Mormon). And yes, it is believed that God can provide the English translation to match. While looking at scripture and quoting, one...

Through the Holy Spirit. Other methods are great for communicating things and bearing testimony, but its ultimately the witnesss of the Holy Spirit of God which changes hearts.

@Animal2692 , I understand that you are hurting. But is there anything anyone can say here that’s going to matter?

I'm in my 30's. :) I don't like just random people profiling scoping me, hence the obviously false age.

If you ever want to talk, just give me a holler. I just can't really help when you're just venting.

Well have a nice day then :)

Well is there anything I can do/say for you?

Two wrongs don't make a right. If you just want to be just stereotype "Christian=narcissist", you can choose to do that. I totally acknowledge that some Christian persons are narcissists (and a bunch of other strong words I could use). But not all. For example I'm a Christian and do not...

Please don't generalize "Christians". There are a lot of different persons / perspectives under that wide umbrella. Stereotyping benefits no one.

It doesn’t bother me at all. Other people do their thing. But I should still look for Truth. It’s too important to be lazy on.

I get you being frustrated. I grew up very aware of religious differences and that everyone was called a heretic by someone else, so my journey is very different than yours in that regard.

I’m not quite sure what you’re trying to accomplish here other than to vent some hurt. I’m totally willing to admit that 1) yes everyone is viewed as a heretic by someone else. So what? 2) yes the circular reasoning thing is dumb. I’m a Christian whom rejects it and find that many likewise...

DO you want me to send you a PM talking directly on this subject? Because yes, "Mormons" can indeed discuss this topic.

“Mormons” and JW have very little in common. The biggest points being 1) a passion for actively going out and sharing their beliefs in the Gospel, and 2) being targeted “anti-cult” junk. Issue to the “you sort it out and get back to me” stance: there’s >30,000 Christian denominations. Should I...

I totally acknowledge and respect that view, even though I don’t share it.

That’s totally possible. In fact, my family is attending a friend’s baptism tomorrow and there is a high probability a basketball game will also be happening in the same building. Or at least if it is still basketball season…. I’m admittedly really not a sports person and don’t pay attention to...

<I apologize in advance if I'm not understanding your question> I'm talking about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, which is nicknamed "Mormon". It's one world wide denomination, the same wherever you go. Other denominations have other practices. For example, Catholics...
