Is that what the burr under your blanket is? Only those churches which fight against God and Christ are of the church of the devil. I suppose you make the evaluation of your own church. Do you fight against God and Christ? You decide.

Myself, I think there are a lot of different churches which are following Christ.

not just the the Catholic church but every church not LDS is the church of the devil - the great whore. We need to do something about that - first polygamy, then discrimination and now the whore thingy.
LOL, how ironic.

I can think of some senior women in LDS Inc that could be considered whores of the brethren.

In her last public speech, it is obvious they all mind f****d Julie.

thestyleguy was ranting about this on another thread. I just gave him his own thread to discuss it in without derailing another topic.

I think it is pretty much a stand alone. Be sure you read my other posts, so you don't just take what styelguy says I think for what I really think.

REAHHHILLLY?

Not according to your Brudder Josephie or Briggie.

You modern day Mormons are all the same.

Keep on bending it, you might make a connection without breaking the rest of it.

Charity, you belong to the apostate CoJCoLDS. The FLDS are the true followers of the original doctrine.

Are you so wrong! You know, if you are going to go to war, you ought to be sure who your enemy is.

are other churchs your enemy? what have been the current thoughts about that - I think they are trying to move away from that and saying there is a lot of good in other churchs but you still have scripture that calls every church except the "true" church a whore and the church of the devil. It's black and white for Mormons - it always has been and likely will always be.

and charity - lets not talk about who your enemy is and bring in your philosphy about who fights against the LDS church is the church of the devil lets talk about this scripture:

1 Ne. 14: 10-12 And he said unto me: Behold there are save two churches only; the one is the church of the Lamb of God, and the other is the church of the devil; wherefore, whoso belongeth not to the church of the Lamb of God belongeth to that great church, which is the mother of abominations; and she is the whore of all the earth.


there is the LDS church who I guess is the Lamb of God and the other - is that correct?

No problemo. I'm just trying to catch up with this running argument.

Okay, that's fine that there are lots following Christ. You can count the Catholics even.

But who are the churches following the devil? You can count the the Pope as a Christ-follower but please name the church of the devil in his place.

LOL Granny! I guess as you claim, while many other churches are following Christ, there is only one with their head clear up the ass of Jesus!

Think about it. Who is more likely to be a good member of the LDS church? Someone who has had religious training and has a tradition of worship and service? Or an absolute libertine who has not a clue about religion or what it means to live by a moral code?

I think many churches are good training grounds. We can't get to everyone everywhere at the same time. So people learn the basics of the Gospel, how to serve their fellow man, and then they can move on to the higher law. I think other churches do a good job.

But you can maintain your victimhood if you want. Either that or ask you dr. for a prescription for lithium. It helps with paranoia. Oh, yes, there is a water fountain in Ashland, Oregon that has natural lithium in the water. It is called Lithia water. And you can catch a Shakespeare play in a real old style Elizabethen theater at the same time.
