Hate to tell them, but according to the heritage of Jesus, he wasn't white, and being a different color is not a sin.

This is why I approve of atheism. Some of the things that some Christians say are completely naive.

I'm not knocking you for dating a Mormon, but god damn I would never be able to deal with that. gonk

I am what I refer to as a true agnostic. I do believe that there may be something bigger than us; Anything is possible, but I also do not know that for an absolute certainty. If there is a God, it is highly likely that no one knows what he looks like. The Bible to me is like a complete moral storybook. I've compared it to Aesop's Fables for years, and I've yet to hear an argument against that.

Totally know what you mean though. I've got friends who are Mormons. I think that it is one really odd religion, and definitely not something I could ever believe in. Ever. Lol.

Totally agreed here.

Yeah, Mormons believe that Native Americans are the devil's children or something like that because they're "red-skinned". Which is why I NEVER understood why my grandma was Mormon, since we're Native lolol.  

[captain buttcheeks]

[Honorary Charlatan]

Basic info on it.

LOL not that they are the devil's children. They believe Jews (presumably Jews, although they'll never actually specify) came to the Americas about 5000 years ago, and of those Jews certian ones continued to follow God, and those who didn't became the dark-skinned "Lamanites".

Funny you mention your grandma, I'm technically a mormon native american too lol. Lamanite Pride! xp  

[Zukes]

Yikes...

I hope that doesn't cause problems...  

[Lass Kyon]

That's funny cause I'm Jewish too lolol. My grandma isn't mormon anymore, though. razz
