		<description>If you have to go door to door, you’re probably not legit. Kind of what frank Zappa said.

You can&#039;t be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline. It helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer.

		<description>&quot;DON’T need to resort to door to door sales tactics to peddle their beleifs.&quot;
Are you kidding me..It&#039;s called missionary work. The purpose is to spread the word to as many people as possible in order to reach the people who are looking for it. That is how I became and LDS member and I thank God everyday for the missionaries. Mormonism is the fastest growing religion in the world..ya know why? Because it makes sense. If people actually took the time to hear these guys out, you would see it too. So many people make outlandish comments that are so ridiculous and false that it scares people away. I was raised Catholic, spent some time in the Southern Baptist church so I have knowledge of other beliefs. I have nothing bad to say about either. In general Mormons will not speak badly of other religions. There is a basic good in all of them. What I get from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is a fullness of the gospel. The Book of Mormon is meant to be just more testament about Jesus. It doesn&#039;t work against the Bible, It compliments it. Being Christian means being Christ-like. I don&#039;t recall Jesus saying ugly things about others and trying to put people down. Religious bigotry is not Christ-Like.</description>

		<description>OK. Gather up people, here&#039;s the TRUE AND FUNDAMENTAL DIFFERENCE...

Orthodox Christians, Catholic Christians, Protestant Christians, evangelical Christians and Pentecostal Christians DON&#039;T need to resort to door to door  sales tactics to peddle their beleifs.

In fact neither do Muslims, Jews, Hindus or Buddhists. So remember, if you have to go door to door, you&#039;re probably not legit.. (I&#039;m looking at you too J DUBS)</description>

		<description>Clearly this guy has never studied any form of Momonism, because they do in fact believe that father, son, and holy spirit are one.  Also the definition of a Christian is someone who believes in Jesus Christ as their lord and savior, that through him we will find redemption and everlasting life, and follow Christ&#039;s teachings makes you a Christian.  Apparently this guy thinks it&#039;s limited to one thing??

&quot;Joseph Smith was a corrupt fortune seeker&quot;

		<description>Mormons don&#039;t believe all other churches are abominations. Bruce R. said that and he was wrong. Like Rick said, &quot;Men are sinners and not perfect.&quot; As far as the Mormons and the whole trinity thing. When Jesus prayed... Who did he pray to? Himself? He has a Father of flesh and bone just like He now has. When Jesus was on the earth, He had not yet recieved a perfect resurrected body. He even said to one may, &quot;why callest me thou good, there is only one that&#039;s good and that&#039;s God.&quot; He would not say that about himself. They are One God just like a husband and wife are one. Like a team is one. And if we are faithful and understand our potential as literal joint heirs of God, we can too become one with Them... John 17.</description>

		<description>Ok! Mike Mike Huckabee endorsing Mitt in behalf of the Republican party he doesn&#039;t care which Church Mitt take his family, but he care where he take the country. Well the Republican who always look for the support of the evangelical Christians, should tell them out loud  they don&#039;t care about God. This year it is a naked truth that the evangelical Christian Republicans are lairs if they support and stand behind Mitt if, if,... believe/ faith is the base of their politics and voting. If they don&#039;t want to vote Obama they can stay home. It is a redifing moment for the Christians, or they have to redefine what cult is.</description>

		<description>God created man.He took dust from the earth formed man to OUR image and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living being.Man has three dimensions yet all three are ONE.Body ,soul(blood)and spirit.Our image God(body)soul(Jesus/blood) and Holy Spirit.The problem I have is that Joseph Smith got his vision from an Angel Moroni,2000 years after Christ.It reminds me again of the similarity with the Muslems.Mohammed got his vision from an Angel Gabriel 600 years after Christ.Now the biblical Christianity already had been proved.Galathian 1 verse 6-9 clearly warns us that even if an Angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached you,let him be eternally condemned.So 2000 years Paul who was a true follower of Christ.inspired by the Holy Spirit already spoke against so called Visions by Angels.The Christian bible was written by many different individuals including Jesus,and all these people were inspired by Jesus/Holy Spirit/God.They did not have visions from other sources.</description>

		<description>The only reason why I will call a Mormon not a Christain is because the are like the Moslems.
The Moslems have the Quran,inspired by their god Allah,and they then have the Hadith wich is their prophet Muhammads own doctrine.The Mormons claim they believe in the Holy bible,inspired by God
and the have the Mormon book which is their prophet Joseph Smits own doctrine.
Man has a body,a soul and a spirit(trinity)based on the trinity of God.
However regardless lets stop throwing mud at each other,we are not doing Gods work any good let us pray for each other and ask the Holy Spirit for guidance and not follow our  own minds</description>

		<description>Let us know if you ever get a prophet who sees this trinity god you speak of face to face and affirms this claim, which is so totally not mentioned in the Bible at all.  While it does say that they are one, Christ also prays for all of us to be one, even as he and God are one.  So are we going to put ourselves in a giant blender and then put ourselves in a mold to accomplish this?  Of course not!  Anybody can look in the dictionary and discover that the word &#039;one&#039; means united.  It does not mean physically joined into one being. 

Timothy spoke of how the people of this day would be turned to fables.  Isaiah spoke of our day when he said &quot;The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.&quot;  He also prophesied that his people would speak to us from the dust, from the words of a book that is sealed, which has recorded in it a vision of all things, and because the people draw near to God only with their mouths and their fear for God is taught by the precept of men, He would perform a marvelous work and a wonder, for the so-called wisdom of their wise would perish. The deaf would hear the words of the book and the blind would see (which they now can do literally as well as figuratively due to bionic eye implants which are being developed and intraoclear and cochlear implants) so that they who erred in spirit would come to understanding and that they who murmured would learn doctrine.

Now in this day, God does, as He did with Moses, speak with man as the need arises, &quot;face to face, as one man speaks to another.&quot; Anyone who has seen them, would know they are separate (physically) beings, God, the Father, Jesus Christ, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, a being of spirit matter.</description>
