Disgusting behavior by Oregon students

So are you in the camp that Mormon are Christians?

Oh you know me, the word Christian has so many definitions it would be futile to dissect it.

I wouldn't even have a real working definition for the word Christian if you pressed me.
 
Ask Harry. I'd be interested to get his take.

economics is an attempt at a theoretical understanding of global financial history with the farcical pursuit of predicting future outcomes.

civics is the study of government institutions. What did the Oregon brainiacs say? And btw @Syskatine I read Oregon public schools are atrocious. I know that subject is close to your heart, but I also know you don’t like to cross swords with Dave so if it comes up, you might have to be intellectually honest. Just preparing you.

Well done. Kudos to coach.

Orygon public schools are very uneven. Largely the rural schools are lagging.

It was a Biggs male high school senior I asked, "since primates have walked the earth, how much of our water supply have we exhausted?" After his correct answer I asked, "did you learn that in school? "No. I read it in a book."

Oregon schools are failing as all the others. 99% plus educators can't teach me to count US currency. We don't teach the structure and history of the US buck. I can go on and on and on.

They can't teach US currency and farming and tax code is voluntary all bc big bro doesn't want them to know those topics - they want stupid govt dependent Normies walking the planet
 
I don’t know exactly what the Mormons believe about Christ, but the “Church of Jesus Christ…” part certainly works in their favor.
They are kinda like Muslims when it comes to Christ.

I don't really have much standing, just curious what peoples take is. The "are Catholics Christians" topic always turns out to be interesting.

I believe they are Christians. They believe that Jesus was the son of God and died for our sins, and that is my standard. That's also the difference between "Christians" and "Muslims". Muslims believe Jesus existed, but it was the prophet Mohammed that set their standard. But I'm certainly not a theologist.

That's not what they believe.

They're a cult because they have a diminished view of the deity of Jesus Christ.

Their idea of salvation is exactly the same as any other false religion out there: good works.

Thats not my understanding of their religion. I understood that they believe in Christ yet require works, as without works, is the faith real? I will say this. I've never had nicer neighbors in my life than the mormons who lived next door in Yukon when I was a teen.

So what is it they believe- coming from a non Mormon correct? What is it that they believe that has you so anti Mormon?
 
"...and the Latter Day Saints" poses an interesting implication.
So they believe in additional disciples who were present in the "Americas" in the centuries prior to the European settlers. Who am I to judge them. So they're like Hulu, and believe in Jesus Christ +++. I'd rather have them for neighbors than a bunch of seculars who think gender is fluid, socialism is good, and that we all should sacrifice for the greater good because in the next 100 years the oceans might rise and flood the Obama compound.

But hey, that's just me.

I read the whole thing and it never once actually defined what makes something a cult. I get that they disagree with the Mormon principles. But what makes it a 'cult'?

And finally why do you care what they teach? You are part of the population that thinks that biology no longer defines gender or that killing an infant 34 weeks into gestation isn't murder. Are Mormon teachings any dumber than that? I say not.

I am not part of that "population".

The Book of Mormon is fake without history or archeological evidence to support it's wild historical claims.

They believe that all Mormons will eventually become gods and will Lord over their own planets, and will make spirit babies with their celestial wives for all eternity.

High suicide rate among Mormon women. I don't have the time to get into why I suspect that's the case.

Their salvation is tied to them performing good Mormon works, not faith in the redemptive work of Jesus on the cross.

Yes, they are very nice to people like you and I. That's great. I'd much rather have a Mormon neighbor than a Muslim or even some professing Christians.

Mormonism is certainly compatible with western culture, whereas Islam decidedly isn't.

What makes Mormonism a cult is their Christology.

Historical Christianity teaches that Jesus was not only the Son of God, but that He is God.

As one noted theologian said, "A Savior that isn't quite God, can't quite save."

Reject the historical and biblical doctrine re: the deity of Jesus Christ, and your group will be labeled as a cult.

That's why the LDS is categorized as a cult, despite their protestations and attempts to call themselves "Christian." They have a whole set of abhorrent teachings that fall outside of Christianity.

They of course know this. They might as well be honest about it.

I must say, what I just put together is pretty impressive, considering I did it all during my morning bathroom time.

Reminds me of when Archie Bunker said, “You can’t have a beer. You borrow a beer”.
