LDS - Mormonism Guidelines

Theists only.

Look! It's a bird, no it's a plane, no it's a bicycle built for two!

This forum is a debate area to discuss issues pertaining to the LDS - Mormons. This forum is generally for theists only, and is generaly not the area for debate between atheists and theists. Non-theists may not post here without first obtaining permission from the moderator of this forum. Granting of such permission is subject to Moderator discretion - and may be revoked if the Moderator feels that the poster is not keeping with the spirit of the World Religions Department.

Due to the sensitive nature of the LDS Temple Ceremonies to our LDS posters, we do not allow posting exact text of the temple rituals, articles describing older versions of the ceremony, or links that provide the same information. However discussion of generalities of the ceremony are not off limits. If in doubt, PM the area mod or an Admin


Non-theists are welcome to discuss and debate these issues in the Apologetics 301 forum without such restrictions.

    I must have missed the part where the gospel discusses employment discrimination.
    Not what I said. I said categorizing people by their sexual orientation is contrary to the gospel.

    Liberalism and Mormonism are both cults, but only one of these cults poses a serious threat to me, and it's not the one with the magic underwear. That you would be so petty as to refuse to compliment them when they're doing what you claim is the right thing just shows how cowardly most Christians have become. You can see a similar phenomenon in Christians who aggressively criticize and protest against Muslims but have nothing but anti-discrimination preaching to direct at anyone who fights some faction of the progressive hegemony, even when the latter are far worse than the former.

    So let me get this straight... you're more okay with the stance that is literally non-Christian than the non-religious stance? Is this one of those friend of my friend is my enemy things? I think you are more invested in politics than Christianity. That's called idolatry.

      The gospel discusses "sexual orientation" even less than it discusses employment ethics.

      They are both anti-Christian but liberalism is far more anti-Christian than Mormonism. It's a matter of differing perspectives, where you don't see liberalism as all that anti-Christian because you agree with them on welfare and Mexican invasions or whatever whereas I see them, on the whole, as virulently anti-Christians and an far bigger danger to Christians than Mormons, who are (or rather, were) only a danger to Christians because they abandoned older principles slower than American Protestants and especially Catholics did.

      Is this one of those friend of my friend is my enemy things?
      You mean the enemy of my enemy is my friend? No, more like the enemy of my enemy who poses no threat to me and mine is better than my actual enemy.

      I think you are more invested in politics than Christianity.
      I am invested in politics because of Christianity. Otherwise I'd probably join the progressive establishment as one of the in the know parasites who uses the mobs of degenerates they've whipped into a frenzy for personal fun and profit.

        Tell that to those who insist on categorizing themselves by their sexual orientation.

          That's my point. Why play along with them?

            You're the one playing along with them.
