Ok - night #2 - Please post your questions about the "Mormon" church here.?
I have to say that I get so weary of all the ridiculous things that people say about the "Mormon" church - polygamy, magic underwear, they aren't Christians, they don't believe in the bible, they changed the bible, they are a cult, they have secret things they do . . . blah, blah, blah!
I am more than happy to answer your questions. I have been a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints my entire life. We don't try to hide the truth or the facts or anything about the church. Please feel free to ask - I will answer.
I did this last night too, and it did seem helpful, so I'll do it again tonight. If you ask a question I answered last night I'll refer you to that question/answer, so I don't have to do it again, but I'll give you a link. Otherwise, look for your question posted by me, with credit to you, with my answer, under open questions, ok?
Ready?
GO!
Don S - I'm sorry I can't help you, because I didn't see a question, just accusations. This is meant in the spirit of good will.

The responses to the above link look usually unfavorable to the concept. That shows there seems to be a resistance to end using the word yet, a minimum of people who felt moved to respond to. the choice to proceed that is utilization or no longer could would desire to come from the final government, no longer the club. that is purely how the church is prepared: from the best down. My turn: sometimes a question would be published in a undeniable vogue that shows a 'area' has been chosen, and responses could be all over the board. i'm in charge on that regard, yet i do no longer, or a minimum of attempt no longer, to aim to be 'inflammatory'. Being advesarial does not inevitably recommend 'foe'. Answering undergo maintain a perspective is the two difficult, and often that could be a chore to split the poster from the submit. as quickly as lower back i'm as in charge because of the fact the subsequent, yet i attempt to a minimum of examine the 'different area of the coin', because of the fact the 1st area has frequently been presented. I easily in no way meant to grow to be a vicious 'anti' and preceived as a villainous cretin, yet I knew from the commencing up this grew to become into unlikely to be a walk contained in the park. i've got reread a number of my previous posts, and that i will say that some have been dealt with without too a lot sympathy or compassion; others i think of are spot on. getting to understand to stay with diverse attitudes is the commencing up of popularity. without that, human beings will proceed to run on thoughts the place reason would desire to avert a disaster. Like, Peace

To Don: I know the truth about mormons because I am one but I prefer to be called LDS Although we do not agree with the beliefs your lovely blueish/greenish tiffiany boxed colored backround page it does not mean that we do not know Christ and his teaching it just means we do not agree with yours I noticed on that page your saying pretty much once saved always saved.... so if that's the case then what kind of place will your heaven be out of curiousity? And if all you have to do is believe in christ why then do you damn me for believing more of Christ than you do? How does merely believing fit in Biblically with the admonition of the Apostles as found in Acts 22:16; 2:36-38, or the admonition that the Savior Himself gives in John 3:5 and Mark 16:15-16? If we don't have to do anything to be saved, but the greatest question I have is why must I act as you do? Why don't you believe that baptism is essential for our salvation? See Mark 16:16. If you do, what form of baptism is acknowledged by the Lord Jesus Christ as being the correct one? The Bible says there is only one, see Ephesians 4:4-5.How many of your protestors does it take to judge and condemn the faith in Christ of another also Do you think it's Christian to misrepresent the beliefs of those you consider cultists in order to show others they're wrong? not that you have as of yet I really don't know but it does bother me you are saying I do not know my own religion.

OK. I am a pagan, and I wondered why on the Mormon Tabernacle in Utah the tops are decorated with pentacles and the baphomet. Answer that one, I am curious. By the way I ask this so I can learn and understand, do don't preach to me about my religion. I am happy with what I am and I also respect you for your beliefs. We are all children of the creator and are loved unconditionally.

A few questions:
1) Mormons use the "Mormon Bible" correct?
2) If so, was the Mormon Bible translated from another version?
3) What is it about the Mormon bible that is different from the other versions?
Sorry if these are stupid questions...but I was a bit curious about those. Any link focusing on those questions would be helpful, if you got them? :-) Thanks!

Before you can answer with truth, you must know truth, and if you are blind to the truth about mormons, what truth is in you?
