Hope big Al left Utah converted to the fact, That Mormons believe in God the Father, and in his Son Jesus Christ. We obviously accepted him as a christian man of faith, and now I hope he sees the LDS church as fellow christians and followers of Jesus. C. Wayne Laccoarce

The problem you mormons don't understand is that Al, like all true believers in Christ, (Christians), believes in the Jesus Christ of the Bible, and not the "mormon" Jesus. True mormons are not "fellow Christians."

Smedley, It is clear that you hate Mormons and feel that they are foolish misguided people.  What you don't understand is that all people throughout history have felt the same way towards others different than themselves. That is why we have the problems and wars we see today.  Mormon massacre... History...   Please get a clue! What about the floods and Noah, Pharaoh and Egypt, Spanish inquisition, Christian crusades, the Holocaust, American Indians, Muslim extremism, Yes smedley, all people are foolish and have either been killed by god or by each other at one time or another because of their ignorance and pride!  Because they suppose they know the truth and have license to judge others that fall short they breed hate and intolerance!  I would truly like to know which religion or belief you subscribe too.  It does not appear to come from a Christian faith, as you do not espouse the teachings of Jesus Christ, or any other great prophet that has come before or has or will come after his mortal ministry.  As for the Bible, which you speak so much about, which version do you accept as god’s word?   The New Testament… How about the Torah or even the Koran???  What about the Old Testament?  And again just for clarification, is that the NIV, KJV, NKJV, NIV, NASV, ASV, RSV, Roman Catholic New American Bible (NAB), etc.   Yes smedley, you have me befuddled, all I see in your posts is an angry person wanting to persecute anyone who is not cut from your mold!  I don’t see the teachings of Christ in your words, nor do I see a person who is secure in their belief and personal relationship with their God!  Else I think I would see compassion and service and understanding but most of all charity towards your fellow man.  Now, lets see…  What were those two great (Greatest) commandments that Jesus spoke about?

Smedley,  You had better let the state of Massachusetts know that bit of information, because according to thier Declaration of Rights  Mitt Romney should not according to law be elected Governor:

Massachusetts' Declaration of Rights: Article III: "make suitable provision, at their own expense, for the institution of the public worship of God, and for the support and maintenance of public Protestant teachers of piety, religion and morality, in all cases where such provision shall not be made voluntarily."", "...every denomination of Christians, demeaning themselves peaceably, and as good subjects of the commonwealth, shall be equally under the protection of the law"

Since you state he is not a "Fellow Christian", then it bears stating that he should not be a "good subject of the commonwealth"!  Poor Mitt

What would you do without The First Council of Nicaea in 325 AD!

Just thought you should know (might want to update your list of True Christians):

Some Protestant Christians, particularly members of the restoration movement, are ambivalent about the doctrine of the Trinity. While not specifically rejecting Trinitarianism or presenting an alternative doctrine of the Godhead and God's relationship with humanity, they are neither dogmatic about the Trinity nor hold it as a test of true Christian faith. Some, like the Society of Friends (Quakers) and Christian Unitarians, may reject all doctrinal or creedal tests of true faith. Others, like the restorationist Churches of Christ, in keeping with a distinctive understanding of "Scripture alone," say that since the doctrine of the Trinity is not clearly articulated in the Bible, it cannot be required for salvation. Still others may look to church tradition and say that there has always been a Christian tradition that faithfully followed Jesus without such a doctrine. They point out that the Trinitarian doctrine, which they see as being steeped in Greek philosophical distinctions, was not clearly articulated for some centuries after Christ

No, here is a great site that I found that tells the difference in what Mormons and Christians believe, they are not even close.

Wow Isabelle A web site as serious in nature as Jesus CAFE?? I was not aware!  It is great to see old Mormons listing false facts about a religion they no longer accept or know about.  I read most of the page you referenced and found that some if not half of what is stated is correct.  However the other is dead wrong.  Ya, Not so much concerned about facts, history, learning about others beliefs with a true intent to understand an individual or what makes them tick, as we are to find inconsistency, fault, blame, intolerance, and hatred.  I bet if you showed genuine love towards your neighbors (the pizza people from another post) and wanted to learn about helping them more than your own needs, they might be more receptive in listening to you.  By the way...  We are all practicing our religion (whatever that may be) and some people need more practice than others.  Yes I have ran across people that "protect" themselves from people that may have different beliefs and do not associate with them.  We are all on our road to Damascus so to speak and I have found that it is the walking that gets you where you need to be.  More to the point I have a challenge for you I would ask you to go to your neighbors home sometime this week and knock on their door and just say that you are trying to get to know your neighbors and are just here to say hi!  Then EVERY time from then on that you see a member of that family just keep saying Hi and see where that gets.  And most of all see how this pattern of behavior over time makes you feel regardless of the result or reply from others.   Yes Isabelle, true religion, not what religion!

Ps want to know about Mormons I found a good website that can teach you their beliefs (not so much on the history of the world and injustices that have occurred) Just beliefs of some great people (once you get to know them)
