This is sweet bought yahoo!! You’re trying to bait me into a confrontation in the terrestrial so the moderators have an excuse to ban me! But I’ve met enough and paid enough lawyers to know how to spot their dirty tricks. Good try though! Here’s aBought Yahoo wrote: ↑Fri Feb 25, 2022 6:33 pmAtllantic MIke is a mere troll.

Yes. I think AtlanticMike and Binger are the real life Dumb & Dumber, but with ED.

It depends on whether you believe what Mormonism's prophets and apostles say, or if you disbelieve what they say.Atlanticmike wrote: ↑Thu Feb 24, 2022 2:04 pmGrowing up in the church we always see the church as a religion because it is obviously. But what is Mormonism? I say it’s a life road map that’s clearly marked out and tells you exactly what direction to go, where to make pit stops, and puts up warnings signs if there’s going to be complications on the journey. Some people need “maps” to get through life calmly and effortlessly. Some people don’t . Some people enjoy filling the tank up with gas and just driving to see what’s out there in the world. Is one way better than the other?

That’s some pretty black and white thinking there Shades. Prophets and Apostles are just men. The gospel is a relationship between you and Christ.Dr. Shades wrote: ↑Sun Feb 27, 2022 2:17 amIt depends on whether you believe what Mormonism's prophets and apostles say, or if you disbelieve what they say.Atlanticmike wrote: ↑Thu Feb 24, 2022 2:04 pmGrowing up in the church we always see the church as a religion because it is obviously.

Re: Why I Love Mormonism!!!!
Does the fact that they are men give you a free pass to disregard their teachings, according to them? And when was the last time any of them said that the gospel is a relationship between you and Christ?Atlanticmike wrote: ↑Sun Feb 27, 2022 12:05 pmThat’s some pretty black and white thinking there Shades.

Re: Why I Love Mormonism!!!!
They’re just men Shades. Don’t let them have so much control over the one life you’ll live here on earth. If you believe in Christ your relationship is with him, not a bishop, stake president or prophet. You control your thoughts, not them! You control every action in your life, not them! You’re accountable for those actions, not them!Dr. Shades wrote: ↑Mon Feb 28, 2022 1:36 amDoes the fact that they are men give you a free pass to disregard their teachings, according to them?

I agree with you. But they themselves disagree with you wholeheartedly. What's the point of belonging to a religion whose leadership you don't trust?Atlanticmike wrote: ↑Mon Feb 28, 2022 2:30 amThey’re just men Shades.

Re: Why I Love Mormonism!!!!
I’m not following them. I don’t follow men. God supplied me with everything I need to live here on earth, it’s already inside me and it’s inside you, you just need to learn how to access it. That’s what the prophets are for, guidance. There are people living today that need all the guidance they can get from the prophets or anywhere they can find it. But there’s also people who don’t need as much guidance, people who are in tune with what God wants them to do and trust the spirit. Why does it scare you that not all Mormons think and act the same? Does it upset the false narrative you’ve grown comfortable believing? Does it not gel with what you’re learning from watching RFM and the Professor?Dr. Shades wrote: ↑Mon Feb 28, 2022 2:59 amI agree with you. But they themselves disagree with you wholeheartedly.

The above part of your post is at odds with the part that immediately follows:
Why does it scare you that not all Mormons think and act the same? Does it upset the false narrative you’ve grown comfortable believing? Does it not gel with what you’re learning from watching RFM and the Professor?
Why does it bother you that some folks mostly or already detached from Mormon routine and beliefs like to listen to either of those two?
A lot of people in that audience have concluded and accept for themselves just what you have said above, and that I bolded.
