Aside from one or two Christians that have a bone to pick with Mormons, the anti-Mormon attitude here is mainly because you keep posting stuff like this.

Yes.

If you didn't mean for the information to prove anything but rather you thought it's "interesting" and we might want to know about it, then say so.

People would do a lot less trying to contradict you if you didn't present your information as "proof," which by the way, you did.

Changing your tune now after you made the title sounds about the same as Martha Stewart saying she had a preexisting agreement to sell her ImClone shares if they dipped to $60.

In defense of the Tirod:

I gotta say, sig materials are off-limits. I enjoy rummaging about people's sigs, and think thats where their most socially questionable ideas should go.

I guess you have a point although I still don't like his sig.

Hey, maybe some people that like Hummers get pissed off by my sig.

Still, I think putting your religious views out there as fact, is a bit much.

but you gotta just take everything you read with a grain of salt. I don't believe a word of his sig (no offense) but I still enjoy reading what he's putting out there for us. Really, who cares what you like?

My definition of "Christian" is a little more liberal. I'd say that someone who believes that Christ is fully Man and fully God, and who believes that Christ suffered voluntarily to save Mankind, is a "Christian."



Now that I know that you are of the Orthodox faith, I understand your particular ire concerning the LDS.

We Orthodox can't get past the Pope, never mind the Mormons! LOL...

i am not anti-mormon, but if i were, how is it silly? i have the right to not like something or some1 w/out having people try to constantly change my mind, rite?

calling some1 silly for no liking a certain religion IS silly.
