    The Book Of Mormon

    Actual “Mormon” here: not really. I don’t miss smoking, coffee, or alcohol. And if you faith journey takes you else, that’s ok. For example, my favorite aunt is an ex-Mormon. She’s still my favorite aunt whom I love dearly and regularly call for advice.

    Mormons: Monolatry/Henotheism Question

    Actual "Mormon" here, sorry so late to the party, I'm not regularly on RF nowadays. To best answer your question I'm going to talk about what LDS Christian ("Mormon") beliefs are and are not. LDS Christianity is not like Islam with pure super simple monotheism (Allah and only Allah), but...

    Media Bias

    Here's the facts of the incidents: - In a BYU vs Duke basketball game, there was the claim that a BYU student (one student) used "N****" to describe the Duke largely Black team one time. The student was immediately suspended by BYU and harshly condemned. The incident made national news. Upon...

    Ask Anything about Me or my Religion (Restored Gospel/Mormonism).

    <Actual LDS Christian here, dispelling strawman bad info> LDS Christians are Christians: we believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God and our Savior. Salvation comes through faith in Him, not by man’s ability to pass a Creedal theology test. Comparing LDS Christian and Trinitarian view points on...

    A truly interesting meeting with LDS

    That's absolutely awesome to hear! I'm also an LDS Christian, let me know if you ever want to chat. I'm not a prostlyizer, just a epson that enjoys better understanding what different folks believe -- it helps me better understand and love them.

    I heard the Baha'i faith is the second biggest faith worldwide.Is that true?

    Actual LDS Christian here: Neither asceticism or monasticism are part the the LDS Christian faith. Asceticism is starving yourself and a bad idea- instead we are supposed to take good care of ourselves. Trying to eat healthy, good proportions, etc (obviously some people totally fail in that...

    Honestly I find that God still speaking is consistent with scripture- He doesn’t change. I of course acknowledge other folks that believe sola scriptura, but it’s not a belief I share.

    LDS Christians don't believe in Sola Scriptura, rather believe that God still speaks and is continuing to reveal His Truths. His apostles are mouthpieces in that regard, but again that doesn't replace your own personal relationship with Christ-- ask Him!

    Ask Anything about Me or my Religion (Restored Gospel/Mormonism).

    Just to clarify things here: If Saint Peter himself was here-- the very same one that Christ Himself appointed while on the Earth-- and Peter told you to do something, should you do it because Peter told you to? NO!!! You are not Peter's disciple, you are Christ's disciple. Before you pay...

    My heart too has aches for idea's & her family's tragic situation. They suffered horribly at this sinner's hands. As somebody who also got admitted in the terrible #MeToo camp at a young age I heart does weep. My monster was met through child care. * slightly switching gears here * Yes, LDS...

    Amen, amen! To me, this is rational faith. Thought out, pondered, prayed, observed. Beautiful.

    Have you observed that when you follow His words, the fruit is good? And when you haven't (we all fall short), that things go badly? Rational faith!

    Thank you for your thoughts here, though I do disagree. Have you likewise experimented on His words? Prayerfully thought things out? For me, I find that to be very rational faith. Do you not? If so,

    By that logic: why did Christ acsend? Would have been so much easier to have people believe if He just stuck around.
