:( But I do get it -- logistics need to be done, and as a mom there's been plenty of sermons I haven't been able to pay 100% attention to at all.

Awesome! Did you have a nice time as well? Any particularly memorable sermons?

I acknowledge and respect your opinion in that regard, but do not share it.

YEAH!!!!!

Not really.

Fact check here: if any LDS Christian marries to people, that's grounds for instant excommunication.

No need to be sorry-- you weren't implying that at all. You've been nothing but a great Christian during this conversation. I just addressed it because it is a common FAQ, and I feel it's better just to get it out of the way. Your previous 3-way split is a pretty common idea, but there are...

Cause they really aren't, despite what some axe-grinders would claim.

Nope. I actually really despise forum proselytizing: finding it incredibly counter-productive and destructive. I just like chatting with other people whom love Christ, of whichever stripe they may be (Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, Restorationist, whatever). My goal is explaining the...

It's all good! The same thing happens to be frequently. You're totally good- I'm very happy address any questions and set the record straight. First, I'll address a common myth here: I don't belong to the church of Joseph Smith. I do not worship Joseph Smith. I am not led by Joseph Smith...

Says a member of one of these Protestant denominations. Note: I'm not dissing this beliefs at all. Such stating where/when it is believed. The original context of this being the different epistemological methodology between these Protestant denominations and Catholics. A Catholic trying to...

It is viewed as honoring, not worshiping.

See my previous post, also pasted below. For big picture here: the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is 100% about Jesus Christ, our Savior, the Son of God. That literally the core foundation of who I am.

Actual LDS Christian (nicknamed "Mormon" here). Short answer: No. The FreeMasonary and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints are two completely different organizations. Both of which really don't like having the folks mix them up. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is...

As I just said: "Sola Scriptura" is a tradition unique to some Protestant denominations.

Sola scriptura is an idea unique to some Protestant denominations. And one could equally argue the "there's nothing in the Bible against it" case too. I would actually disagree with that statement. In my experience, every denomination has the equal proportion of folks whom are well studied to...

It would be more accurate to state that Protestants are noteworthy for their *lack* of some beliefs in regards to living mortal and dead mortals interaction. Pretty much very other group has some type of belief in that regard. None of which are that any dead mortal takes Christ's divine role...

Yes. And I stand by my point.
