Any Mormon/LDS here?

>>>I haven't seen a single wedding ceremony in my family because of the so called "purity" requirements. Needless to say, that didn't settle with me to well <<<

Doesn't bother me in the least that after 31years of marriage to my LDS wife, we have not had a temple wedding. But most faithful members of the church will find that alarming. Fact is, I believe if you are true to yourself and believe that Jesus Christ is the savior and died on the cross for all mans sins, and that by this gift and the Grace of God, all men will be saved, (with the exception of those who are known as the sons of perdition) then He will sort things out in the next life. If it is His will that I be married for time and all eternity to my wife, and all my children will be sealed to me in the next life, than a way for that to happen will make its self available.

In the mean time, I will continue to be who I am, and do the best to be what I can be, given the limitations of my mortality and sinful condition.

It upsets me that this Church and its members are so maligned because of misinformation and ignorance. I have yet to hear someone on this BB take on the Lutherans, or the Baptists, or the Seventh Day Adventists, but its like open season on Mormons. Fine. Perhaps they are a pecular people, but a finer bunch of people I have yet to meet in this life.

Went to Ricks for a year and worked a theatre for 5 years where I was the only non-member. Very true about the misinformation.

If he was your friend, you would have understood the sacred nature of his wedding vows and the importance to him and his wife to have that Temple Wedding for Time and all Eternity, as apposed to "until death do you part". With out a temple recommend (a documeent that identifies you as worthy to enter the temple and partake of the blessings therein) no one can enter. You should have been there for your friend as he exited the Temple and rejoiced in their most noble decision.

I hope he dumped you. You were not a friend, just a spoiled little pussy that didn't get his way. :frown:

Anyone here know anything about "blood atonement"?

You know, I generally don't care what religions do, but the more you speak, the more brainwashed you sound... In real life friends invite friends to weddings, they make them their best man, hell, even godparents...so don't get upset when someone else views your ways as bizzarre...in fact, who are you to call him names>? Sound a little judgemental to me! Women come and go, but friends are always there. I think you need to go screw yourself for that entire ramble of bullshit!

 

[LAUST]

If you had a clue about anything you wouldn't Judge a person like that anyway, I took this guy into my house when he got laid off from a job and had no nest egg to survive, I never even asked that he pay me back, also we were long time friends outside of that ,So with that you lose

 

[LAUST]

THANKYOU!

 

[FrysInsider]

LAUST don't boil yuour blood over Tripleshot.

He claims to be an "ordained elder in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints"
yet he is the one using the more derogatory/offensive language in this forum.

I sure hope some of the other "elders" of his religion know how to get their point across
in a more civilized manner.

 

[LAUST]

Yeah you and Gulzakar are very right, way to hit it on the head

 

[Aurianne]

Tripleshot I'm shocked by the foul language you've been using in this forum. It would seem to me "as an elder" that you would excercise a more faith promoting tone and manner. Did you ever do your mission duty? Is this how you responded to questions and explained the faith then too?

 

[BeeVo]

Wow there is a ton of misinformation in this thread. That is why discussing religion in forums is pointless and stupid.

hmm, ok, i "use" to be a mormon, but i just don't agree with somethings, so i'm not any more. #2 is the only thing that possible could even be half true. #1, 3, or 4. are just insane? out of curiosity, who the hell told you #3? uhhh...i havent even heard that one. #2 might have some truth in it but i don't know how exactly that works. I think there are a few technical things that have to be included before that's true, but i'm not for sure. I was only a mormon for like a year and a half.

peace

>>>In real life friends invite friends to weddings, .....<<<

No ,in real life,friends don't desert their friends because they don't get invited into a sacred Temple just for the sake of viewing the inside. Laust would not have cared at all about his "freinds" wedding had he been invited in. Here is a clue. You EARN your way in to a temple. It is not for the general public.

Now get this straight people, I asked to have my membership removed from the Church records because I did not accept the stance that blacks could not hold the preisthood. I gave up my membership beacause of that policy. I am not alone. Many left the Church for the same reason. Albeit I did not know anyone at the time that did. I have lived with that stigma for 25 years. The Church has recanted,(for lack of a better word you all would understand) and now blacks arewelcome members of the Melchezdic Preisthood and all the benifits and responsibilites that go with it. Screw you people that judge me for judging you. That is the lamest freakin thing I have ever heard,and is the very reason I am comfortable telling you like it is without, the sugar coating. I do not got to the Church,yet I can see it every day. Its in my back yard. I am not active for reasons i will not share with you or anyone. I did not claim to be,nor do I now claim to be a member in good standing with the Church of Jeseus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

So if my languge offends you, tough sh!t . I really don't care. Laust,you can come over the mountain antime you feel froggy. I still think your dissing a friend because he got married in an LDS Temple and you couldn't go, as being about as slimey as one can get. Cry me a river,wanker. You are not worthy to lick thay mans shoes.


>>>Women come and go, but friends are always there. I think you need to go screw yourself for that entire ramble of bullshit! <<<

No, you go screw yourself. Read what you just posted. Its sexist and just as offensive. And why does this guys marriage in the LDS Temple have to cost Laust a friendship?
Here is a clue
He never had one. Friends will always be there. Your words, not mine.

 

[FrysInsider]

Never let some chick breakup a friendship no matter what.

Yes, there are the answers to your questions -- to learn about mormons, goto a non-mormon site. That will help you lots. <that's sarcasm, btw>

If I want to learn about JW's, I'm going to ask a practicing JW, not some disgruntled ex JW.
If I want to learn about Jews, I'm going to ask a practicing Jew, not some disgruntled ex-Jew.

ETC

Your link is an an affront to the faithful members of The Church of Jesus of Latter Day Saints. It is designed to spread more misinformation.

As for me, I choose to be inactive just so I can cuss and kill with impunity. I am not what the faithful call a good mormon. But many, many do call me a good man. I can live with that.

Hello, my name is Tripleshot and I think my sh$t doesn't stink!


Your an idiot, pure and simple! It's hard to argue with someone who holds themself so high above others, that telling you your ass is on fire when it really is, is pointless as you would never listen. Do you think your Mister Holyman?, do feel oh so righteous>?
I know my Mormon friends would bring me along regardless...they have already told me so! (now your argument will be that they are not "true" mormons, bring it on pillow biter)<-----------------oooh, I can be a potty mouth too!
Curious to how I am sexist because you can have male or female friends, I've had many female friends who stick around long after girlfriends are gone. Your desperate, strugling for an argument when you have none...you have passed judgment on others and for that I sentence you to a life in Hell, thats right, eternity in Hell! LOL, You wonder why we pick on mormons so much? It's because of people like you that spend so much time implying how superior you are and how everyone else is trash. I have spent many years around them, and none act in such a manner. You need to grow up!

<< I know my Mormon friends would bring me along regardless...they have already told me so! ( >>



Those are definetly good people!!

 

[LAUST]

There you go again,

I 2nd that motion.

 

[Tripleshot]

You are a fvcking liar. You have no Mormon friends that will "get you into an LDS Temple. I doubt you have ever talked to a mormon with a temple recommend. If you did, he would bitch slap you for your stupidity.


you have passed judgment on others and for that I sentence you to a life in Hell, thats right, eternity in Hell! LOL, You wonder why we pick on mormons so much?

Nope. I don't wonder at all. I know ignorance breeds contempt. And you exemplify that perfectly.

Hello, my name is Tripleshot and I think my sh$t doesn't stink!

Hmmmm. Testy aren't we? You are way wrong. It stinks terribly. But it's not so bad when you lick it up.

You need to grow up!

I have been here over half a century, sonny boy. When I was a young man I was amazed. Now that I'm older, I'm simply amused.

 

[Chau]

i thought mormons dont believe that jesus was the son of God and died on the cross? i heard thats why that's why you never see any crosses on/in mormon churches?
