The LDS web page is clear the Bible is corrupted.
Given that, the Book of Mormon, D&C and PoGP would logically be superior, where as the Bible is insufficient/corrupted.

If you truly said that by mistake, that means that you are so unbelievably ignorant of Mormonism and anything to do with LDS as to render your question worthless and undeserving of a reply.

A brain freeze Z. You never had one? Sheesh. You called my post nonsense. I am asking you if you believe the Bible to be less reliable than the ‘Pearl of Great Price’. Obviously you don’t want to answer that question. If you did answer it you could prove my post is nonsense.
 
Ignorance was the topic of the thread. However the ignorance is that of the so-called mormon prophet. His own words fired an opening shot of hostility and ignorance.

Yes, shouting abuses is easy; reasoning is hard.

Only people with no brains do that; no brains and no integrity.

I’m sorrowed by the fact that President Hinckley found it necessary to tell half-truths to get his point across. In his statement regarding the council of Nicea he says that “Each participant was given opportunity to state his views. The argument only grew more heated. When a definition could not be reached, a compromise was made.”

This is simply historically inaccurate. There was no “compromise”. I would like to think that he didn’t know that what he was saying was false.

It’s distortions like these that make me remember why I’m no longer LDS. There is a plain inability to face up to the facts, or to bend the facts, when they don’t suit the purposes of the LDS Church.

Yes, it **IS **historically inaccurate but how many mormons listening knew that? Next to none, probably. Why would they?
GH knew what he was saying was false and said it anyway. That way he can support his views with no backlash from his “faithful” flock.
If he did not know, then that doesn’t say much for his level of education.

A, he loses, B, he loses.

You mormons should know. Ask your non-mormon neighbors in Utah about religious abuses. Obviously reasoning is hard for your “prophet”. Keep in mind that my first post quoted his own words. If anyone has no brains it is Hinkley. As for integrity, well as others have pointed out he clearly spoke falsely about the Holy Trinity.

You already know what I think of apostates. I am not the only one who despises them.

Joseph Smith was an apostate. He left the Methodist church and founded a non-Christian religion. Do you hate him?

But I do agree mormons hate apostates and non-mormons who point out problems in mormonism.

Zerinus,

You despise me? How can a Christian despise anyone when Christ asked us to love our enemies? I’m not even your enemy and yet you despise me. I’m sorry you have those feelings in your heart my friend.
 
Good old Mormon rhetoric, I guess when your church was invented as a system for a guy to step out on his wife attempting to defend it will lead to a great deal of fustration.
 
How can this be confusing?

I believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and of all things seen and unseen.
I believe in the one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father ; God of God, Light of Light, true God of true God; begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made. For us men and for our salvation, He came down from heaven, and was made incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary, and was made man. He was crucified by Pontius Pilate. He suffered death and was buried. On the third day He rose again, according to the Scriptures. He ascended into Heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He shall come again, with glory, to judge the living and the dead, and His Kingdom shall have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified. He is spoken through the prophets. I believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. I acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins, and I look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.

I love saying that out loud in Mass.

It truly sums it all up.
