So, briefly looking at Basilides, there seem to be some aspects in common with Mormonism. I see where you are heading. Good leads, thank you.

As for St. Hildegarde of Bingen, she was a Catholic mystic, definitely someone for me to look up to. Thank you for that suggestion, too.

As You know (or don't...) once in a time I was banned for a week because of genitals/breasts on caricatures and/or because of Michelengelo's David's uncircumcised dick.

Worst sermon I've heard at the particular church I attended. Preached about Queen Elizabeth. Now I realize that Episcopalians have this Angophile think. But trying to connect Queen Elizabeth with the Trinity is pretty much impossible. As the preacher convincingly proved.

Well, it is the King's Church. :P

The hymns at Mass, all about the Trinity. Mormons would change the lyrics, like they did with St. Francis' Canticle of the Sun (All Creatures of Our God and King) and then ask, "How can you say we aren't Christian?"

Mormons worship a different God, or Gods, depending on which Mormon you ask. I don't know of any religion that includes the gods of others just so one doesn't feel excluded.

Still waiting my little beotch. What is your question regarding Mormonism is not Christian?
