The Book of Mormon contridicts Mormonism

[_ludwigm]

Is the "Westboro Baptist Church" something American?

If it is, then:
- Is "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" something American? (by the way why the words "of" aren't "Of"?)
- Is the "ABCUSA" something American?
- Is the "The American Lutheran Church (ALC or sometimes TALC)" ...
- "American Association of Lutheran Churches (TAALC, also known as The AALC)"
- The United Reformed Churches in North America (URCNA)
- The Federation of Anglican Churches in the Americas (FACA)
- American Orthodox Catholic Church
- New Testament Christian Churches of America (NTCC)
- American Evangelical Christian Churches

I don't continue. The list is showing:

I believe it is one of those quaint old habits. The first word is capitalized; however, in a title the "important" words are capitalized (highlighting them), while the joining words are not.
Examples:

The United States of America
The Taming of the Shrew
Of Mice and Men
The Last Days of Pompeii
The Owl and the Pussycat


I do hope that this helps you understand...

We are looking at a picture of people in front of a Jewish place of worship expressing vile Christian hatred of Jews and Nipper tells us he is not like these people. He is above using slang terms to insult homosexuals. A virtuous man does not call homosexuals fags when offering them condemnation.The subject matter here is not your right to offer to condemn homosexuals but the tradition of christian hatred and condemnation of Jews. Little Nipper, A while back you said you were unsure of whose sins were behind the holocaust. You might consider your own.

God does not hate people. What God hates is sin. And I do believe that even the sins of seemingly many good people contributes to the pain of others, and may even drive them away from God. That is why one needs to enlist God guidance and cling to Him and His Word, and not rely on personal nor popular opinion.

Silly god.

[_The Erotic Apologist]

I believe in holding up a mirror so that people might just see their own reflection.

Nipper, is that what you see when you look in the mirror?

I would have to believe that Idolatry is the underlying cause of homosexuality. Sin was not the creation of God but is of Satan. Idolatry is replacing God as the center of one's existence and desire with something else.

[_The Erotic Apologist]

I would have to believe that Idolatry is the underlying cause of homosexuality.

If that's true then there would be a measurable correlation between homosexuality and idol worship in societies that worship idols, such as in certain parts of China. Have you actually tested this theory of yours?

Sin was not the creation of God but is of Satan.

God created Satan, ergo god created sin.

Idolatry is replacing God as the center of one's existence and desire with something else.

Doesn't idol worship involve the worship of idols?

Thank You.
I know all the (stupid) spelling rules, You confirmed my knowledge, thank You again.

Then, after unclouding the sky...
--------------------------------------------------------
Are that dozens (or thousands) of listed churches American things? Are they special American things?
According to the site I cited, there are:
- American Church in Berlin
- Korean American Presbyterian Church
- Anglican churches in the Americas
- Anglican Church in Central America
- Whitefield's Tabernacle, Tottenham Court Road (redirect from American Church in London)
- Finnish Evangelical Lutheran Church of America

--- and from this point on I leave out the next hundreds of oxymorons about "American" churches outside of that area, as unnecessary, unwanted, uncalled for, or excrescential (this last word rhymes with excremental, sorry)

Can be CHRISTIANITY the only one valid answer to every question of humanity, when (=if) there are ten thousands of so called christian churches; denominations; groups; sects? Half of them (or more than half of them) in US?

Sorry, LittleNipper, "Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes".

Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes is a Latin phrase from AeneidAeneas (II, 49), written by VirgilVergilius between 29 and 19 BC. It has been paraphrased in English as the proverb "Beware of Greeks bearing gifts", even though its literal meaning, "I fear the Danaans, even those bearing gifts", carries a somewhat different nuance to the usual English version of the phrase.

Sorry, LittleNipper, (again) Your version of christianity --- one of some thousands originated in US --- carries a somewhat different nuance to the usual christianity.

OK, in the church tumult in US, Mormonism only a blip on radar. This comment may be offtopic.

So you're saying your God is filled with hate?
