Zone1 Mormons outraged after Pentagon no longer counts LDS as Christian

Sounds more like just a simplification putting religions into bigger groups with fewer categories to greatly simplify things for the government while saving us a lot of money by trying to eliminate needlessly trying to deal with every one of them individually.

It's Monday now, time to throw out 20 more 'Big Giant Trump Outrages' to spam all the social media sites with.
 

Mormon leaders, military veterans and elected officials reacted with anger to a new Department of Defense policy that does not consider The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to be a Christian religion as part of a wider effort to cut down the U.S. military’s list of recognized faiths.

I have no problem with Mormons, most I've met are pretty nice people, and I'm a huge fan of their food prep program and buy a lot of stuff from them, and they are but supporters of the American military ad serving our country, but they are different than most Christian sects and probably shouldn't be lumped in with Baptists, Evangelicals, etc. Just my opinion from reading their Book and conversing with many of them over the years.

Watching leftists arguing passionately for the "Christian-ness" of the LDS is probably the best thing I've seen all day. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

lol yes, they're suddenly all about 'moralz n stuff', never mind the baby killing and kiddie rapers they run pity parties for, and cheering when some Christians get arrested somewhere. They highly approve of the Red Chinese arresting them and then harvesting their body parts to sell on the organ trade black market as well.

What a bunch of embarrassingly stupid white wing pap.
 
I doubt any religion was "removed" just reorganized so that many lesser religions were grouped together to fall under some bigger heading or category. I mean, 31 religions, that still covers a lot! I can't even name 31 religions and I've studied religion!

Its not like Hegseth is atheistic or anti-religion, so keep your panties on.
You doubt? Sounds like you didn't even bother to look. You just wrote what you think is convenient for yourself.
 
Imo, they are Christians, with different beliefs as all other Christian sectors out there...Puritan are different from Southern Baptist, and Southern Baptist are different than the Amish Anabaptist, who are all different from the Roman Catholics and Orthodox Catholics and Ethiopian Christians, and Methodist or Lutheran etc etc etc.

The government should not be making that decision imo....how dare they try to establish what is or is not of a certain religion or faith?

I am not a Morman, (but I haven't met a Morman that I did not like) and as a Christian I find it interesting discussing Christianity with them...their book of Morman I am lost on, but when discussing Bible scripture, they seem to know more than many mainstream Christians imo.
Why the hell not?

The same government tells gays they can marry but polygamists they can't, why again?

Cuz the state thinks polygamy is yucky just like it thinks Mormons are yucky.

It is also why the state will protect animals of human life, because the state prefers animals to humans cuz people are yucky.

We are governed by a bunch of Left wing loons.

Actually, the Mormons themselves say that polygamy is yucky now and they will insist up and down that Joseph Smith wasn't having sex with his 35 wives.

I'd have no problem with legalizing polygamy. We already have polygamy. One is called "the Wife" and the other is called "The Mistress".

It's not just eagle eggs that are protected.

You can get a fine merely for collecting an Eagle Feather that drops on the ground.

You can be charged for disturbing an Eagle's nest.

Now, if an Eagle was making its nest inside a woman's uterus, I think most people would support her right to remove it.

If Mormons can rationalize that their polygamist leader was not a polygamist, it is the only way they can reject polygamy. Otherwise, they must either ditch the faith he created or submit to polygamy as being Ok.

Unfortunately, Islam can't. In addition, their leader married a 6 year old little girl.

This is why the only countries where there is no maximum age of consent is within Islamic countries.

Yeah, it's more complicated than that. The Mormons ditched polygamy because the US wouldn't let Utah into the Union until they did. Ironically, Utah's constitution specifically prohibits polygamy (as opposed to other states, which just outlaw it in civil law.)

Now, all that said, I'd have no problem legalizing polygamy and group marriages. Not something I would do, personally. One wife is more than a handful for me.

Actually, there's more to it than that. He was betrothed to a child to cement a political alliance. That child grew up to become one of the most influential women in the early Caliphate. So was it a real marriage or a polite fiction to link the Caliph to the Prophet?

Who cares. Hundreds of years ago, and not my problem.

The debate within Islam is, did Mohammad consummate the marriage when the child was 6 years old or 9 years old? It almost reminds me of Pete Rose who was accused of having sex with a 14 year old when he was in his 30's. His defense was that he thought she was 16. Then I got to thinking, Pete, that is not a valid defense. LOL.

But since we are talking about the leader of one of the largest cults in human history with Mohammad, that is now the problem of little girls being molested within Islam since that time by the millions and for the foreseeable future.

But as you say, it's not YOUR problem.

Congrats.

Um, no, the debate is, among historians is did he really have a relationship with Aliyah that early, or did the Caliph who succeeded him try to claim he did to bolster their credibility

Frankly, it sounds like you are an Islamophobe trying to rationalize his hate. Which would be laughable if it didn't keep dragging American into wars that REALLY AREN'T OUR PROBLEM>

PREDICTION.... Latter day Saints are about to be blessed and given more and more and more of the Holy Spirit in a manner that will resemble the Book of Acts.

I believe that by the year 2031 the Latter day Saints will be blessed in many ways beyond what could be imagined now in 2026. 2031 is the 2000 year anniversary of the resurrection of Messiah Yeshua - Jesus.


Here is a question that I do believe that Latter day Saint scholars will have some fun with:


.......
I have to admit that I did like the Book of Mormon but I could not believe that Prophet Joseph Smith is the final Elijah? It seemed to me that there is just too much yet to happen for Prophet Joseph Smith to have fulfilled all the predictions about what the final Elijah must accomplish.

The Book of Mormon does seem to have some pretty amazing insights on many topics though.

Here is a question for all Latter day Saints here, what do you think of the ancient Book of Adam and Eve?


......
Good question... I suspect that he would but I am not sure.

Another relevant question would be would Adam have a noticeable scar on his right side from an event spoken about in the rather ancient, Book of Adam and Eve?

.....

Chapter LIX - Eighth apparition of Satan of Satan to Adam and Eve.

1 But Satan, the hater of all good, did not allow them to finish their prayers. For he called to his hosts, and they came, all of them. Then he said to them, "Since Adam and Eve, whom we deceived, have agreed together to pray to God night and day, and to beg Him to deliver them, and since they will not come out of the cave until the end of the fortieth day. 2 And since they will continue their prayers as they have both agreed to do, that He will deliver them out of our hands, and restore them to their former state, see what we shall do to them." And his hosts said to him, "Power is thine, O our lord, to do what you list." 3 Then Satan, great in wickedness, took his hosts and came into the cave, in the thirtieth night of the forty days and one; and he beat Adam and Eve, until he left them dead. 4 Then came the Word of God to Adam and Eve, who raised them from their suffering, and God said to Adam, "Be strong, and be not afraid of him who has just come to you." 5 But Adam cried and said, "Where were you, O my God, that they should punish me with such blows, and that this suffering should come over us; over me and over Eve, Your handmaiden?" 6 Then God said to him, "O Adam, see, he is lord and master of all you have, he who said, he would give you divinity. Where is this love for you? And where is the gift he promised? 7 Did it please him just once, O Adam, to come to you, comfort you, strengthen you, rejoice with you, or send his hosts to protect you; because you have obeyed him, and have yielded to his counsel; and have followed his commandment and transgressed Mine?" 8 Then Adam cried before the Lord, and said, "O Lord because I transgressed a little, You have severely punished me in return for it, I ask You to deliver me out of his hands; or else have pity on me, and take my soul out of my body now in this strange land." 9 Then God said to Adam, "If only there had been this sighing and praying before, before you transgressed! Then would you have rest from the trouble in which you are now." 10 But God had patience with Adam, and let him and Eve remain in the cave until they had fulfilled the forty days. 11 But as to Adam and Eve, their strength and flesh withered from fasting and praying, from hunger and thirst; for they had not tasted either food or drink since they left the garden; nor were the functions of their bodies yet settled; and they had no strength left to continue in prayer from hunger, until the end of the next day to the fortieth. They were fallen down in the cave; yet what speech escaped from their mouths, was only in praises.

.....
Chapter LXIX - Twelfth apparition of Satan to Adam and Eve, while Adam was praying over the offering on the altar; when Satan beat him.

1 Then Satan, the hater of all good, envious of Adam and of his offering through which he found favor with God, hastened and took a sharp stone from among the sharp iron stones; appeared in the form of a man, and went and stood by Adam and Eve. 2 Adam was then offering on the altar, and had begun to pray, with his hands spread before God. 3 Then Satan hastened with the sharp iron stone he had with him, and with it pierced Adam on the right side, from which flowed blood and water, then Adam fell on the altar like a corpse. And Satan fled. 4 Then Eve came, and took Adam and placed him below the altar. And there she stayed, crying over him; while a stream of blood flowed from Adam's side over his offering. 5 But God looked at the death of Adam. He then sent His Word, and raised him up and said to him, "Fulfil your offering, for indeed, Adam, it is worth much, and there is no shortcoming in it." 6 God said further to Adam, "Thus will it also happen to Me, on the earth, when I shall be pierced and blood and water shall flow from My side and run over My body, which is the true offering; and which shall be offered on the altar as a perfect offering." 7 Then God commanded Adam to finish his offering, and when he had ended it he worshipped before God, and praised Him for the signs He had showed him. 8 And God healed Adam in one day, which is the end of the seven weeks; and that is the fiftieth day. 9 Then Adam and Eve returned from the mountain, and went into the Cave of Treasures, as they were used to do. This completed for Adam and Eve, one hundred and forty days since their coming out of the garden. 10 Then they both stood up that night and prayed to God. And when it was morning, they went out, and went down westward of the cave, to the place where their corn was, and there rested under the shadow of a tree, as they were accustomed. 11 But when there a multitude of beasts came all around them. It was Satan's doing, in his wickedness; in order to wage war against Adam through marriage." [The Book of Adam and Eve]

I'm a Bible-believing Christian who lives in the heart of Mormon country. Though the Mormons have adopted some of the tenets of Christianity they teach doctrines that are quite contrary to the Gospel message. Mormons are NOT Christians though I prefer to live in their midst as opposed to living in some gang-infested big city.

I have no problem a state having an established Chrisitan sect. The Founders saw fit to allow them so I'm fine with them. These days demographics would get in the way of establishing one in the vast majority of cases; Utah might be an exception, though I think some Mormons follow the Baptists on state and church issues. I'm not familiar with the dissenting factions among them, if any.
