@NKY_Leftist@EudaimoniaEsq That’s literally not the same thing. He didn’t say “we didn’t want kids, so we aborted”. He said “we aborted because we found out our baby had Down syndrome”. Both examples are still evil by the way.
@ThoughtfulSaint LDS beliefs have changed drastically since it was founded. How is anyone supposed to know what’s a “lie” and what’s simply an old belief? Progressive revelation that contradicts prior revelation is the problem here. How is anyone to know what you actually believe?
@SlowToWrite@farmingandJesus I respect your opinion and agree with just about everything I see you post. I’m curious, if a husband murdered his 10 year old child in cold blood, would that be grounds for divorce from the wife? Someone else posted this question and I did not see a response from you.
@carbonmfg@PearlKevinPrice Joseph smith himself claimed to both read and write in English, German, Greek, and Hebrew. So which is it? Was he truly some linguistic scholar or was he a liar and actually some “uneducated farm boy”? Mormons sure love to paint their prophet as an idiot.
@Piecemaker2121 While I have fundamental theological disagreements with Catholics, I expect to see some of them in heaven. I’m sure they would say the same of me. However, neither of us would say that about Mormons.
@Piecemaker2121 I think you misunderstand how Protestants, Catholics, and orthodox Christians see LDS’s. Respectfully, you are not our brothers in Christ. Any person you convert to your religion is another soul lost to Hell. While we use the same words, we do not mean the same things.
@RebelReformer@ApoloJedi_ Evolutionary biology states that if I’m the fittest, I deserve to survive and you don’t. If an evolutionary biologist condemns slavery, they’re stealing from the Christian worldview. They have zero objective moral grounding to justify their beliefs based on their worldview.
@sp1fffX@thesanityrevolt Would you really rather admit that it’s because he burned down the Nauvoo expositor and had created his own army to act at his bidding? Yeah, I’d stick with the polygamy if I were you.
@manmotion@GuyInco15542744 God has never prescribed polygamy. Whether or not you can consider Jacob’s multiple wives “sinful” or not, it was not endorsed by God. Genesis 2:24. One man. One woman.
@AaronAsher11@Sola_Requiem Why do you think Joseph had a pistol smuggled to him inside prison in the first place? You cannot use the “he was defending himself” argument without acknowledging that he must have had plans to use that pistol in some nefarious way prior to the mob showing up.
@TheGermanicist No, I’m just not falling into your trap. If I thought your question was genuine (it’s not), you’d get a very different answer. Alas, I don’t think we’ll get anywhere.
@TheGermanicist Why ask me when you could ask the Holy Ghost? Why trust historical Christianity or some random on X when you can pray about it and get the answer you wanted all along?
