"Fundamental to all LDS members is the belief that God is alive, all-powerful, all-compassionate, and perfectly just. Because of his perfect sense of justice, he cannot permit the tiniest of uncleanliness into his kingdom. We don't make the rules. He does. He is the rule. And he demands perfect obedience and perfect subjection of heart, might, mind and soul. Not because he is cruel, but because he is right, and righteous, and there simply is no other way to be happy but his way." wow their version of god is a real cunt my god thinks everything is cool as long as you tell a priest what you did afterwards

LoL, how arrogant could you get? (Not you, but whomever wrote that) They're not perfect, so I guess no one's getting into heaven. Yeah, I believe in God, but I don't believe that God is the asshole that so many Christians etc make him out to be.

Well, I explained my reasoning.

Not really. You just said "how arrogant can you get? [...] They're not perfect, so I guess no one's getting into heaven. Yeah, I believe in God, but I don't believe that God is the asshole that so many Christians etc make him out to be." That's just a statement of your opinion, not an explanation of what caused you to draw that conclusion. I don't mean to pick on you, but osmotic's kinna right in this case...you didn't really explain yourself at all.

"Enter Jesus. Jesus reaches down, down, down from his divine throne, and descends below all things and then ascends above all things. Why? Because he and only he can bear the price to be paid to correct our mistakes and make us even with God. Not only that, but he bought us with his blood and only he can claim that he owns us. His perfect life isn't the only example for us, but his words also, and his words are quite clear: "I am the way". There is no other way. If anyone says there is another way, they are a liar and are just as lost as everyone else. See if they have any true happiness or peace or righteousness to offer. They do not." I totaly agree! "Enter Joseph Smith" ...Not so much. We beleve that no man is higher then another when it comes to salvation. "All have sinned..."

I suppose you could say I believe in the bare bones of certain Christian beliefs. I believe in God, believe Jesus is our savior, that it is wrong to cheat, lie, steal, kill, etc. But the logical, scientific-minded side of me disregards the more extreme beliefs. It's my opinion that if you concentrate on the core beliefs, that things will fall into place. I've seen so many people get so wrapped up in every last rule and detail, that they lose sight of what Christianity is really about. I don't think that God is jealous or wrathful, as many portray him to be. I do believe that he really is all loving.
