I got blocked by an anti-Mormon again for correcting his lies. I wear these like a badge of honor. @grok's my C3P0 missionary companion.

I’m Roman Catholic. I don’t care if you’re Orthodox, Protestant, or whatever else. None of that matters right now. Evil attacks us every single day. The last thing we should be doing is fighting each other. We need to stand together. United in Christ.

@ContraHeresy The more reliable Pew survey has the LDS percentage staying the same. The CES survey is known to have huge margin of error problem for smaller religious groups (which includes LDS).

Some encouraging news: In the US, Orthodox Christianity is on the rise and Mormonism is on the decline.

@ThoughtfulSaint Jacob, you give off the vibes of the kind of guy who was the smartest kid growing up in St. George and who got a really big head and ego from that, but who still doesn’t realize that being the smartest kid in St. George isn’t actually a great accomplishment or credential.

When you start calling math “human math” you no longer are in the realm of rational conversation and your theology has ended.

@ThoughtfulSaint A Divine Being that inhabits a higher spatial dimension will not be subject to human logic and thought over how He must be. We can get to truly know how He is by subjecting ourselves to His divine commandments and becoming holier day by day.

Joseph Smith himself declared Christianity to be evil when, in his 1838 First Vision account, he said all Christian creeds were “an abomination” and all Christian professors were “corrupt.” Christians are responding to Joseph Smith’s own claims about the faith.
Hank Smith@hankrsmith

It implies the founder was an agent of evil. Disagree? No problem. Saying he’s at the behest of Lucifer implies all of us are. Communities defined by an agent of evil tend to get treated accordingly. The language shapes the perception. The perception shapes the treatment

"What other man has lived with power to withstand death, over whom death could not prevail except through his own submission? Yet Jesus Christ could not be slain until His "hour had come", and that, the hour in which He voluntarily surrendered His life, and permitted His own decease through an act of will. Born of a mortal mother He inherited the capacity to die; begotten by an immortal Sire He possessed as a heritage the power to withstand death indefinitely. He literally gave up His life; to this effect is His own affirmation: "Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again." And further: "For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself." Only such could conquer death; in none but Jesus the Christ was realized this requisite condition of a Redeemer of the world." - Talmage, "Jesus the Christ

@FreedomMomUSA Jesus was fully human. When he chose to come to earth he chose to be fully human and subject to death just like the rest of us.

🚨James Fishback says he will NOT support Byron Donalds if he is the Republican nominee! “The Byron Donalds of today, the one that wants to double down on anti-free speech, anti-Semitism laws, who said we need to speed up the construction of AI data centers, who said last month that we have plenty of pristine land to build on, the one who said that the H-1B program must continue in Florida because our students are not economically viable yet. Forget whose name it is, forget what party affiliation they belong to. That is irrelevant. I judge people by the content of their character, and Byron Donalds is not somebody that I would support as a candidate or a voter.”

@ThoughtfulSaint The creedalists have to contort themselves into a gordian knot because they won't let go of the abiblical, problematic consubstantial idea.

Everyone knows Florida is the greatest state in the Union. So if Texas is second, which state is third best? 🤔

I turned in my vote by mail ballot yesterday. I voted for Nithya Raman and Tom Steyer, neither are perfect candidates but this election is too important for a protest vote. Keep our city safe from MAGA grifter mayor!

@WheelnDealin101 @RealMattFradd Revelation has clarified that it isn't "referencing literally anything". See D&C 132:38. But I'm glad you just inadvertently made a strong case for living prophets...

@SUNANDSAND4EVER @RealMattFradd Oh the one verse that could be referencing literally anything. Since it’s never brought up again. That could been reference to Zipporah or Moses might have been widowed and remarried. Too obscure to know but claiming polygamy as fact is Mormon slop

FACT: Not one other person saw the burning bush. FACT: Not one other person was with Moses on Mount Sinai when he received the 10 commandments FACT: Not one other person was with Abraham when he received the Abraham Covenant FACT: Not one other person was with the Savior when he rose from the dead FACT: Not one other person saw the angel Gabriel appear to Zacharias FACT:...etc. (do we really need to play this game) Buy your own standard you're an atheist.

Fact: not one other person witnessed an angel telling Smith where to find the plates. Fact: not one other person witnessed Smith recovering the plates. Fact: not one other person ever read or recorded what was on the plates. Fact: not one other person has ever been able to verify what was on the plates. Fact: not one other person witnessed Smith's alleged First Vision.

Wait… do people really think Joseph was the only person involved in his revelations? Do they not know about multiple witnesses on multiple occasions also seeing angels and having visions with Joseph? Do they not know that almost 20 people reported being shown the plates?
Rob Alsobrook@robalso

@ThoughtfulSaint @realDailyWire Compared to Christianity, the lone “angel” → private ‘corrective revelation,’ is unique to Mormonism and Islam.

I don't fault Mormons/LDS for being impressed with the stories about John Smith and his cadre witnessing what they claim to have, but whenever they try to impress others with it, it makes me scratch my head a bit. Do they have any idea the breadth and number of miracles witnessed in the Catholic Church? Fatima and the miracle of the sun alone had upwards of 60,000 witnesses, including anti-Christians, journalists, and atheists. Alongside that, the claims of a tiny cadre of like-minded men is hardly impressive at all.

@SUNANDSAND4EVER @RealMattFradd Moses didn’t practice polygamy. Repeating Bart Ehrman slop is another reason why Mormons are functionally atheists.
