| − | [http://www.timesandseasons.org/?p=4490 Why it’s unchristian to call Mormons “not Christian” ]
| |
| − | | |
| − | <blockquote> "I don’t begrudge people who feel the need to find some terminology to
| |
| − | demarcate themselves from Mormons. How about calling themselves “non-
| |
| − | Mormons”, rather than making up a name for Mormons—“non-Christian”–
| |
| − | which Mormons don’t agree with and don’t want to wear?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Insisting on applying that term to Mormons is like someone coming up
| |
| − | and slapping a sticker on my back that says “Stupid”. They are well
| |
| − | aware that, without specific explanation, it is understood by many
| |
| − | people to mean that Mormons do not believe that Jesus of Nazareth is
| |
| − | the Son of God, the resurrected Savior of the world. Knowing this,
| |
| − | people who use the term, without caveats to specify that it does not
| |
| − | mean what it sounds like, are creating a false understanding about
| |
| − | Mormons, and are therefore bearing false witness against their LDS
| |
| − | neighbors.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Since they know that Mormons don’t like the label, people who use it
| |
| − | are intentionally giving offense. How Christian is it to do that?
| |
| − | Didn’t Jesus say something about people who call their brother “a
| |
| − | fool” being in danger of hell fire? " </blockquote>
| |
| − | | |
| − | I will now come out and say that any of you posting on Conservapedia
| |
| − | that Mormons or Catholics are not Christians are being unchristian
| |
| − | yourself and are denigrating me and my faith.
