Do you think the Mormon religion is a cult? Ask a Question

No more than Catholic.

I answered yes - but then I think all religions are irrational cults

Yup. Except maybe Unitarian Universalism (I am not a member)

No more than that one started by Martin Luther, the Lutheran Church. It's just been around longer and has more followers, but that's the ONLY difference (as far as being "cult-like" is concerned).

not unless you think its normal for God living on the planet Kolab, making spirit babies, being a brother of satan, and baptising dead people is normal. - sounds like a cult to me. oh yeah,, how do they explain Ephesians 2:8-9 , One more thing, who in their right mind would not accept Jesus Christ in the celestial kingdom?? either that or go to hell?? after your already dead?

I never heard of the planet Kolab. Is it in the Milky Way galaxy? I thought Mormons believe in Jesus.

Of course I reserve the right to be mistaken. :-)

I'm in my right mind and I don't accept Jesus Christ as any more than a great speaker who died over 2000 years ago. But yes, Mormon sure is a cult. So are most religions in my opinion.

Why be so distrustful Hauli? The book of Mormon was given to a bloke Joe Smith written on gold plates in upper NY state. By an angel called Moroni. What's not to believe? Happens all the time. Only just now an angel, called Moron as it happens, gave me a grubby scrap of paper saying that Sir J McCartny should also give me pounds 25 million.

Want proof? I've still got the scrap of paper! (unfortunely the mormon's gold plates seem to have, um, dissapeared).

Um mormons don't belive God lives on Kolob. Baptism for the dead is in the Bile! 1 Corinthians 15:29.... and mormons DO belive in being saved by the lords grace, but NO WHERE does it say grace ALONE saves. You need to at least try to live a good life. Good works being a testimony of your faith in Christ. but people are free to belive whatever they like aslong as it dosen't hurt anyone else
