More proof that God is female

[_zeezrom]

Are you getting tired of my rants yet?

Warren Jeffs proclaimed that all sexual relations among his married members should cease. Behold, a relief to many mortal women! Women in the FLDS church have been coerced into relationships for years and God has finally had enough! Enough, Ye mortals!

Isn't it obvious that 1. Warren is a prolific and powerful prophet and 2. That God is female?

Something has changed since he went to prison! The Man-God abandoned him so the She-God took an opportunity to help out her beloved children.

I think the only evidence that God is female is found in "Satan was abroad in the land". Genesis 5:1-3 shows the female component of God but only in the context of God being a married man.

BC,

Why isn't Warren's new prophecy evidence?

Remember Aristotle's plea.

Remember Aristotle's plea.

I don't remember it because I wasn't familiar with it. I looked some stuff up and found this quote (see below).

But a life consisting completely of intellectual activity would be too high for a human being: for it is not insofar as we are human that we will so live, but insofar as something divine is present in us; and by so much as the divine element is superior to our whole composite nature, by so much is knowing truth superior to bringing about other good things. If contemplation of eternal truth is divine in comparison with the whole range of human activities, then the life of reason is divine in comparison with ordinary human life. But we must not heed those who advise us, being human, to think only of human things, and being mortal, only of mortal things. We must rather, so far as we can, make ourselves independent of time and change, and strain every nerve to live in accord with the best part of ourselves. For even if it be a small part of us, much more does it in strength and worth surpass everything else. Our intellect would seem to be our true self, since it is the authoritative and better part of us. It would be strange indeed if we were to choose to actualize not our essential selves but some other accidental part of our nature. And what we said before will apply now: that which is proper to each thing is by nature best and most plesant for that thing. For we humans, then, the life of the intellect is best and most pleasant because the intellect, more than any other aspect of our being, is our essence. The intellectual life is therefore also the most perfect.

Interesting. That is quite a plea!

It is unfortunate that we don't have more defenders around here... that are appreciated, that is.

Can we do some recruiting? Where should we recruit from? MDD? Where are you, defenders that are fun to talk to?

Do we create an environment (accidentally) that makes it hard for defenders to be fun to talk to?

The defenders that were here, like DCP, have retreated after getting their butts kicked. It's what one does when he or she has taken a beating and wants to mitigate his or her losses, and hopes to retain what remains.

If you want more defenders here, you'll have to feign that they've won arguments that they have not--because logic and reason are not their allies, but their anathema. But if you want to feign like they've won, you'll lure some more defenders, those with the hubris to think that they have legitimate arguments, into the fray.

If you do, it will like bringing new, fresh meat Christians to face the lions. It would certainly be entertaining.

Because he's not a prophet.

I've found that appreciation here typically comes only with agreement; hence the intellectual dishonesty of LDS criticism here.

Neither have been any of the presidents of COJCOLDS. Posers, yes. Pretenders, yes. Oracles of god, no.
