Thews, I don't have time to give primary lessons here! You don't want to talk about baptism for the dead because you have been shot down about that, even though you probably still can't see it! Okay, pick out ONE more topic that you can't seem to understand, and I will address that also!

Tarski, maybe you need to have some simple missionary discussions first before you try to respond to one of my posts. I don't want to waste my valuable time responding to such ignorance!

Drifting, if that comes form a source which is anti Mormon, are you sure that you want to hear a Mormon source?!?

gdemetz,

Might be a good idea to find out a bit more about Tarski before suggesting that he is ignorant and needs some simple missionary discussions in order to respond to your posts. Same goes for suggesting that Thews needs primary lessons.

Right now I am ROTFLMAO at your suggestions.

When you find out a bit more about Dr. Tarski, you will see why.

Same goes for Thews.

That loud sucking sound you hear is your credibility.

And in case you care, had I seen your posts before this morning, my response would have been pretty much the same as Tarski's. And I was born into the LDS Church, completed seminary and institute, and was married in the temple before I figured it out, so please don't suggest missionary or primary lessons for me - Thanks.

Fine.

You have proved you can not use the quote feature.

Two things:
1. Wikipedia is not an official Church doctrinal reference guide (unless something's changed)
2. Your quote says nothing about angels filling in the blanks for people who have died without any record of their living existence.

Apart from that....great quote...

gdemetz,

You have got to be joking. This is a joke, right?

This is how you demonstrate to ludwigm that you know how to use the quote feature?

Seriously?

Maybe you should find someone to provide you with some remedial basic message board usage instructions.

Thews, you will have long way for gdemetz to respond to the several points you raised. I have mentioned the failure of the Book of Mormon, supposedly the "fulness of the Gospel" to even mention baptism for the dead and have also quoted the Mosiah verse twice to demonstrate that the Book of Mormon clearly suggest baptism is an ordinance for life only and both times he has conveniently failed to respond. He does appear to ignore anything that dents his locked in viewpoint.

Albion, neither the Bible, Book of Mormon, are any other one book is a tell all concerning the gospel! I have already demonstrated clearly by a number of true scholarly sources how baptism for the dead was practiced ion the early church and continued at least until 397 AD when it was banned by the council of Carthage, 6th canon! Is there something else you have a question about?

You're not intelligent enough to have a conversation with. Contradiction is not a valid debate tactic.
