@CapturingChrist @emuse1955 Should be a good one as long as you don’t pull a Jacob and shift the burden. Unless you want to tell us now that you actually don’t hold the burden.

Big update: LDS apologist Luke Hanson has agreed to take Hayden Carroll's place in the debate on the Book of Mormon with @emuse1955. The new proposition is: "It is more likely that the Book of Mormon was inspired by demons than by God."
New date is June 9 at 7pm Central.

Dude, Jacob's first major debate was on the exact topic you said we won't debate 😂
confirmed misanthrope@blatant_sock
@LukeFHan you'll never see LDS debate Catholics on resolutions like "the book of Mormon is inspired scripture" because they run away from their own affirmatives. Even when they don't, they shift the burden of proof in the first sentence (Jacob is never living the Joe debate down)

The double standard just keeps getting better and better.

No Catholic should attack Joseph over the age of his wives. Their own canon law allowed these marriages in Joseph's lifetime. "Until 1917, canon law had basically considered anyone above the age of 12 capable of marriage. Thus, when the 1917 Code raised the minimum age for marriage in the church to 14 for girls and 16 for boys (1917 CIC 1067), the change was greeted as an improvement" Not to mention that 14 year old girls are STILL permitted to marry today. So why have Matt Fradd, Joe Heschmeyer, Trent Horn, and others used his brides ages against him?

@brg1213 @tylerbegan124 @ThoughtfulSaint To be Christian is to believe Jesus is your savior.
Romans 10: 9
"If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."
English
I literally have intentionally used the words “creedal Christian” to be sure people know that I have no interest in that form of Christianity.
But maybe people should ask if “creedal Christianity” is the only viable form of Christianity.
Tyler@tylerbegan124
@ThoughtfulSaint You’re trying so hard to pretend that Brighamite Mormonism aligns with traditional Christianity.
English
@tylerbegan124 @ThoughtfulSaint I guess. It wouldn’t benefit Mormonism to say traditional Christian. Trinitarian Christian isn’t another one I don’t get. To be Christian means you believe in the trinity or at least belong to a denomination that is trinitarian.
English
@brg1213 @ThoughtfulSaint It’s just an apologist term. It means the same thing as traditional christianity , historic christianity, mainstream christianity, catholic/protestant christianity, trinitarian christianity.

@LukeFHan @RealMattFradd Still waiting for your YouTube response. Tap dancer.

Matt Fradd's Daily Wire article invited feedback from Mormons.
Well I have some. Lots. I have lots of feedback.
Are you open to correcting the record @RealMattFradd?

@brg1213 @Serenitatis76 @LukeFHan @andrewklavan your opinion of our religion you know nothing about is besides the point. there are people looking for the truth. and evangelical hate catches the eye of curious people. when they learn about us, some will want to join us.

Andrew Klavan @andrewklavan today on the Matt Fradd Mormon controversy (shortened):
"I love Matt Fradd. He's not like these hateful people just slinging mud in the name of God. But I have to say I don't agree that he should be doing this.
Mormons aren't blowing people up, leave them alone.
When you take away something that you disagree with in somebody else's faith, you might think you're doing something good, but you might actually be taking the step away from them that's going to lead them to something closer to the truth."
English
@Serenitatis76 @JunesLavender @LukeFHan @andrewklavan Don’t understand what that has to do with anything. I can show you other religions that have grown. Doesn’t prove they’re right.
English
@brg1213 @JunesLavender @LukeFHan @andrewklavan There aren’t Mormon bots. And the more you “expose” the church, the more members you create.
English
@bobsaget2018 @LukeFHan @andrewklavan Or the Mormon church is of this world and goes along with the times.
English
How about we settled in a slave state and they raped and murdered us for being abolitionists and for advocating for black freedom. Joseph even had it as part of his presidential campaign.
Then we thought hmmm maybe we don't want to be raped and murdered so we will go more neutral on the topic until the rest of society catches up.

@belugaLives Yes I know they give warm lectures here and there. My point is why is there so much subjectiveness on belief. Why don’t they go out and set these beliefs straight. Instead you have Hanson go out and tell people he doesn’t know if the Mormon god is all knowing.
English
They speak twice a year at every general conference.
And that’s just to the entire church! They’re speaking to smaller congregations pretty much every other weekend, and many weekdays, throughout the entire year.
Rodrigo G@brg1213
@ThoughtfulSaint Right, so why doesn’t your church have authorized people to speak of on these matters. Why do they always hide?

Therefore [Cameron Bertuzzi, former Evangelical] had accomplished his design, for he had hardened the hearts of the [Catholics] and blinded their minds, & stirred them up to anger, insomuch that he gathered together a numerous host to go to battle against the Latter-day Saints

@brg1213 @LukeFHan @andrewklavan You can go much much deeper than this from official church documents online as well. And no I am not going to go chasing them down for you. If you can post on X you are more than capable of finding them yourself
