"But, Mommy, I want it now"

Post by _sock puppet »

COJCOLDS teaches that in due time, God will reveal additional truth, and then it will become clear how all information--including scientific--will harmonize with "the Gospel" truth.

Impatient and impetuously, the mopologist now tries as he or she might to force the square peg of "the Gospel" into the round hole of scientific and other scholarly information. He or she is not content to wait on God's timetable, but insists on trying now to show that 'harmony'. The impatience shown by the practice of mopology before God deems it the appropriate time reminds me of the small child who cannot wait until Christmas morning or his or her birthday to get the expected gift.

Patience, it is a virtue.

You know Sock puppet, this is really a fantastic point. What is the probability that these utterly cryptic ideas that have baffled mankind for thousands of years could simply be revealed at the whim of any average junior apologist flunky?

They have the answers to just about everything they put their prejudice and indoctrination to in less than sixty seconds flat.

There's no conflict with science in the LDS Church even now. You have it already. Perhaps something might come up later.

BC is correct. There is no conflict between science and religion, specifically LDS religion.

Join me down in the telestial board my young apprentice. Your master will no longer be posting here in the terrestrial. I am taking the battle elsewhere and will teach Dr. Shades a lesson he will never forget. Only through me will you be able to fully understand the power of the dark side. Come, it is the only way. There I will instruct you what to do with Nomad and his pitiful band.

bcspace and Simon, you could not have given any more conviction or testimony to your being and thinking like true mopologists than the posts you've made in this thread.

Hello,

Once again, Mr. BCSpace and Mr. Belmont show a stunning lack of historical perspective. No doubt, it stems from their inactivity, lazy & intransgient approaches to LDS doctrines.

I suppose we could list off the Moon, Sun, & other "scientific" quotes LDS leaders have given us, but it would be blithely dismissed by them: Non-leaders, non-appointed Seers & Revelators who reject men who have the blessing, keys, and authority to speak for and on behalf of the Lord.

This is one of many reasons why I feel Mopologists are not only apostates, but heretics as well.

Tower of Babel is very obviously mythological.

The Book of Mormon presents the story of the Tower of Babel in a historical context, as if it was a real event.

The Book of Mormon, hence the LDS Religion, conflicts with truth and science.

Just one example out of many...
