[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting.  I have never met a Catholic I didn't like.   8)  There are TONS of problems with the church, doctrine, and leadership, but the Catholics I've met are very down-to-earth.   Well, except for one family that seemed almost fundamentalist-conservative, wearing Amish-like clothing.  Still, they were nice.  [/quote]

Same for Mormons. I honestly think they are bat shit crazy for their beliefs, don't understand how in the hell they can believe this crap, and therefore question their intelligence. But I have never, ever met one that I didn't like. As a stereotype, they are incredibly nice people. Except for Mitt Romney. He's an evil dude.[/quote]

[b]Please explain how Mormons are any more bat-shit crazy than any other Christian sect.  [/quote][/b]

[b]I understand your point, and I agree with you for the most part. However, Mormon beliefs are a bit crazier than most religions. It was founded by Joseph Smith, a well-known con-man in upstate NY who claimed an angel gave him gold plates in 1820, they "baptize" dead people retroactively. Oh, I almost forgot: Glenn Beck is a converted Mormon. He is bat-shit crazy, so if Mormonism attracted him, it most be the nuttiest religion out there[/b].[/quote]

I wonder what additional information we would have on Jesus if he was around 200 years ago instead of 2000.  Maybe we just have better records of all the kooky stuff Joseph Smith was involved in?  And as far as "nutty": water to wine, virgin birth, rising from the dead?  Being neither Mormon or Christian, they both sound equally nutty to me.

Glenn Beck. Case closed.[/quote]
