Re: Temple Cafeterias to close permanently

PS I'm proud of Marcus, he caught on to your BS in nothing flat. :D maybe they just took on too much today; I was reading three or four main threads and they used the EXACT same tactics in three! EXACTLY! That's just lazy. 8-) When I returned home from the mission field I genuinely believed that th...

Re: Temple Cafeterias to close permanently

I think I’ve ate once at a cafeteria. For me, the highlight of going to the temple was eating after at either Tito’s or El Cholo. The cafeteria never entered into the equation. Tito's. Mmm. El Cholo. Double Mmm. Yea, me too. I don’t think I ever even stepped in a temple cafeteria. But I always thou...

You tried hard to change the subject, but no, it wasn’t. :roll:
Read the posts after that.

Re: The distance between Christianity and the 4 Gospels

Your schtick is to pack up an run from hard questions. You would like nice, comfortable conversations where you can sing tenor in a choir singing the same song. Guess we won’t be friends. I don’t sing in that choir. 😉 You joined in until you didn’t want to anymore. Tough questions aren’t comfortabl...

Well, sounds like you’re a critic. What’s your Mormon story?

I’d answer if I thought you were sincerely asking, but I’ve seen how you post here. :roll:

Re: The distance between Christianity and the 4 Gospels

This is your schtick, I take it. :lol: :lol: :lol: oh well. Looping back, pre-derailing. :roll: There were some great responses to the first post, repeated here. I came across this statement, and thought it rather insightful: "People don't leave Christianity because they stop believing in the teachi...

Re: New Project Shows Church Finance Corruption

Convoluted is one word for it. :roll: Wow. And still, no response when you asked them to explain their accusation: Quite an accusation to not back up, but I'm getting the feeling that doing stuff like that is this poster's MO. :roll: Go back and read. That was worked out. Regards, MG You tried hard...

Re: Temple Cafeterias to close permanently

I can see where this point of view could lead someone to assume that the gift-giving and the general celebratory activities surrounding Christmas are detrimental to one’s faith, instead of enhancing it. I don’t understand why expressions of faith must be limited to the entirely dour or serious side...

Re: The distance between Christianity and the 4 Gospels

Synthesize your take aways into the strongest argument you can compose and give me a reason to read the book. I listed five categories which Metaxas covers in his book. The first three are, to me, the most powerful because they deal directly with science. And I’m a science kind of guy. Let’s make t...
