I think it is just great that you are here 
and that you can ask what you want too, challenge and debate. We do not have 'blind' faith and I am just delighted that you feel this is a forum where you can say what you want to say! Have you heard about the 'Book of Mormon' a stage play that opened in London recently, apparently breaking the box office! <><

questioning is not bad in itself. I tend to ask a lot of questions but some things I take on faith. You even take some things on faith: medicine, natural laws like gravity, etc. what parts of the belief do you dislike and are you sure they are part and parcel of it or did someone just tell you that? ....... Some Mormons actually think they follow Jesus and the Bible (obviously most Christians don't agree), so the person who told you could be mistaken as well. .... wish I could fix my enter key grrr... lol... so you are researching Mormons? haven't looked at that group in detail... don't they think you can be good enough to be a god and own your own world or something like that? ....anyway if you want to talk about the Bible and how it does NOT teach slavery. just post a thread or send an pm ttyl.

This makes me smile...'it does not fit my ideals'....i think Gods ways are so far off our ways, no, He does not fit with how we would like to live our lives. Before I accepted Christ, i could not see how 'His' ways could make sense, be fair or even logical. Now, it all makes sense. Many come to know God in a very simple way, others go kicking and screaming questioning everything, wanting all the details answered logically and experientially....I was one of the latter! I did not like the answers one bit, but one day...i stopped fighting it and the peace and understanding simply flowed...like the proverbial river <><

They say there are no atheists on a sinking ship, and I hope mine never sinks lol
I also realise now how much I have just tempted fate with those remarks.
Expect to see me soon now sleeping on a bench in a dirty coat lol
