Evidence for God from Science

Have you ever seen the old Disney movie "The Little Mermaid"? Remember when that big ugly ocotpus woman sings "Poor Unfortunate Souls!!" That is how I feel right now. You folks believe you have got it in the bag. Again you have failed for not properly understand the Book of Mormo...

Sargon wrote: Turgonian wrote: Christ had a human and a divine nature. His divine nature was eternal, omniscient, spiritual. Of course He could possess all authority everywhere. His nature was spiritual, yet he had a material body of flesh and bones. How exactly is it that you are defining spiritua...

Your confusion is that you do not understand the nature of LDS thought. After a thorough and detailed study of the BoM, many LDS scholars have concluded that the most probable area for the habitation of the people in the BoM is in central america. This is based on archaeology, and careful reconstruc...

Fortigurn, You simply are wrong on this one. You do not understand the Book of Mormon, and are not familiar with LDS history. You have repeatedly stated what you consider fact, but with no examples of proof. Check this out, it might enlighten you a bit. http://www.jefflindsay.com/bme11.shtml There i...

Time limits me to but a few comments. So I ask again, how can you possibly claim historical accuracy and archaeological support for the Book of Mormon, when you cannot even tell what the original Book of Mormon place names refer to? The answer to this must be given after responding to your other que...

Our logic may be off base, of course. Excellent point. So you think God is made of gas? Of course I dont. You said that the word translated as spirit also means breath and wind, and described them as immaterial things. I pointed out that breath and wind are not immaterial, and neither is God. Chris...

Seven, Thank you for the stirring reminder of how important faith and prayer is for really knowing the truth. Just as Paul wrote: 1Ti 6:20 ¶ O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane [and] vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: However, let us not ...

Sargon, how can you possibly claim historical accuracy and archaeological support for the Book of Mormon, if you can't even tell which areas of land it's talking about? The original names and pronunciations of the Book of Mormon place-names have been long lost, probably never to be discovered. Alth...

Joseph Smith said that on the hill of Cumorah in the state of New York there was said to be 240 thousand people killed. Do you believe these 240 thousand people migrated from central America to upstate NY only to get killed? Where else do you think these people came from? Again you are wrong. Allow...

I dont believe the Book of Abraham was mentioned at all in the original post. That would be a whole different topic and would require a very lengthy discussion. If you are truly interested I could give you links to places where it is discussed. Back on topic. Let's start with the easiest things firs...

The point is that the only verse used to show that God is spirit and does not have a material body, does not teach it. No. And it doesn't teach that God lays eggs, either. Then you agree with me. Your only defense is to resort to philosophy. 'Spirit' is immaterial; that's part of its definition. It ...

Absolutely, Ill even let you choose which topic to start with. We can do one at a time.

All right, we all know that Mormonism is heresy. But, how does it stand up historically? The answer is no. You answered no to a question that was not a yes/no question. Let's start with the easiest things first. Ya know those maps that are sometimes illustated in those Mormon books? Isn't it pretty...

Good point.

Have you already proven that God has a body? (Or wings...?) In the course of this thread I have not intended to. I have only shown that the number one scripture used by most to show that God does not have a body, does not in fact teach that. Forgive me for saying this - but isn't this all moot anyw...
