[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] Well, that's just it, it's not a question of instructions. The events of the Old and New Testaments were all attempts on the part of God to teach us how we might live as well as humanly possible. Christ was the ultimate way for us to see it. The Book of Mormon doesn't even pretend to improve on that. It's just stories of Lehi leading Jews to America, Christ appearing there after his ressurection, founding a church, which then mysteriously vanished leaving no evidence, only to be ressurected itself centuries later when some guy claimed to find disappearing tablets in a field. Mind you, this is their beliefs as expressed in public. Many ex-Mormons claim that the CoJCoLDS has other beliefs that don't get out much, that seem more Bhuddist than Christian, i.e. we become God after death or somesuch. So yeah, they're Christian in that they believe Christ is the son of God, but their beliefs about what that means are apparently way different from what even they define as scriptural. Assuming what I understand from these ex-Mormons is accurate, naturally. And, just for the record, my statements are intended to describe what I understand about the official beliefs of the CoJCoLDS. I say nothing about individual Mormons. [/QB][/QUOTE]
