hahahaha. just watch BIG LOVE it'll answer all your questions. it goes something like this. during the three days of resurrection, jesus came to the americas to spread the word. LDS is just another denomination of CHRISTIANITY. I can make a few calls for you, and have some missionaries come to your house for a conversation.hehe. when they come to my house, i open the door buck naked with a beer. that usually gives me a few months of quiet time.

Respectfully I would have to disagree with the statement that Mormonism is a denomination of Christianity. Just because you talk about Jesus, doesn't mean that you listen and respond to what He says.
 
Christianity is a monotheistic[1] religion centered on the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth as presented in the New Testament.[2] Christians believe Jesus to be the Son of God and the Messiah prophesied in the Old Testament. With an estimated 2.1 billion adherents in 2001, Christianity is the world's largest religion.[3] It is the predominant religion in Europe, the Americas, Southern Africa, the Philippines and Oceania.[4] It is also growing rapidly in Asia, particularly in China and South Korea.[5]

Christianity began as an offshoot of Judaism,[6] and includes the Hebrew Bible, known to Christians as the Old Testament, within their canon.[7] Like Judaism and Islam, Christianity is classified as an Abrahamic religion (see also, Judeo-Christian).[8][9]

The name "Christian" (Greek Χριστιανός Strong's G5546), meaning "belonging to Christ" or "partisan of Christ",[10] was first applied to the disciples in Antioch, as recorded in Acts 11:26.[11] The earliest recorded use of the term "Christianity" (Greek Χριστιανισμός) is by Ignatius of Antioch.[12]

you cane take foot out of mouth now

hamoto, did jesus talk to you personally? that'd answer alot of questions about your responses.lol

Ok, I guess I could have gone to the dictionary too, I thought I'd try to put it a little simpler, but ok. Also I'm failing to see how my foot was in my mouth. Secondly, I noticed that you didn't adress the mormon issue. Are you agreeing, or simply withdrawing? And I dont understand your question about Jesus "talking to me?" but maybe thats cuz it wasn't really a question? What responses are you refering to?

hamato, what is the "mormon issue". if you believe christ is the son of god,and savior, by definition you are christian. now, mormons don't have a forgive me box, don't molest boys, don't sell endowments, and don't pray to the cross or the Virgin Mary, but mormons are christians. thats how your foot is in your mouth. here's a fun fact for you: the mormon sect of christianity is one of the few christians sects that baptize the same way jesus was(fully immersed in water). not by sprinkeling water on the head.enough religion for me. but you should know what you're talking about, right? anyways, i've stated in another thread that i think religion in general is a joke. happy bibleling.
