Hes trying to make noise and get some attention. You almost have to do that if you intend to make moneys in our social media world, if you’re supporting a lowly religion like Mormonism. Every time I see a Protestant call Mormonism Satanic, I get what they’re saying. Even back when I believed and they’d do it, I took it in stride. No big deal.Kishkumen wrote: ↑Sun May 28, 2023 5:36 pmIt’s also just completely uncool to impugn one of the largest branches of Christianity. He does not take it kindly when ignorant Christians call Mormonism Satanic, demonic, or un-Christian, so he should not be leveling this kind of charge at so many fellow Christians.huckelberry wrote: ↑Sun May 28, 2023 5:00 pmPerhaps I have a second thought which though obvious I should add because of my previous comment. I think using Satanic as an adjective for something implies a rotten or negative to the core quality.With that sort of meaning I do not think any religious group qualifies. It remains true that religious groups make mistakes, can come up with understandings which are harmful and actually commit evil acts.
There are times some groups come painfully close but still the word Satanic does not help understanding but instead is a block to understanding the humanity of errors and bad choices.
