Actually, it bears a slight resemblance to LDS doctrine. There are differences, of course, but I found it interesting.

Hmmm,

I tend to agree with it.

I found the chart interesting. My MIL showed me a chart similar not too long ago and I think this is more or less what she believes.

Thumbs down Simple, elegant ...

I'm reminded of a quote from mathematics:
"For every problem, there's a solution that's simple, elegant, and probably wrong."

Given the number of times I've been told that I'm going to hell, I never believe anyone who seems absolutely certain about where other people are going. I'm certain that god hasn't spoken to those people directly about who's in and who's out. I am also also certain that god's the making the judgement call, and god's not likely to delegate the task to anyone at the Folsom Church.

I'm not Christian so I won't comment on what I think of the chart, but I did find it noteworthy that a couple of those who responded did not really say what they thought of the chart, only that it agreed with some other authority that they respect. To say that the chart is "interesting" does not really say anything.

So thank you Mr. Emu and Karl R for standing on their own convictions.

It's amazing how many little formulas and flow charts and schemes we can invent in order to keep certain people away from God and present the gospel message as something frightening and deadly.

I disagree whleheartedly with the chart and the concept that produced it.
