[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, they are a religion of their own, [b]more like a cult[/b][/quote]

This would be a matter of opinion/perspective, right?  Because that could be said about all religions. [b] Are Mormons not deserving of the same respect as Lutherans or other religions,[/b] including non-Abrahamic ones?[/quote]

so same for scientologists?[/quote]

Assuming you are the PP, answer the question, because it is in response to your post.  Then, if you want to ask me my position, I'll be happy to share it in return.[/quote]

ok, no I think they Mormons history, how it was founded, makes them seem a bit dubious to me in relation to Lutheranism (presumably founded by Martin Luther).  [/quote]

So it is a matter of personal position then?  That each of us can decide which beliefs are worthy of respect, and which are not?

If that's your position, great, we agree completely.

And now to answer your question, as I promised, WRT scientology: I do think the "history, how it was founded, makes them seem a bit dubious to me".  And I also think that about Mormons.  I also think that about Lutherans, Catholics, Muslims, Pagans, Shinto, Rastafarianism, etc etc.  All faiths which have a supernatural foundation, "seem a bit dubious to me".

But if it is demanded that we show respect to certain religious beliefs, shouldn't we show respect them all?  Shouldn't we not call any of them "cults"?[/quote]

Supernatural? [/quote]
