Democracy

Welp, I’m quitting again. I hope I can make it longer than last time.

I guess we’ll just have to wait and see. It will be a joyful day when I can talk to my gay brother about the gospel.

You believe gays won’t be married in eternity. And what scripture is that from? if you’re going to pull from modern day prophets make sure you pull all the times prophets in the past have said blacks can’t have the Priesthood.

Surrogate...

Im still waiting on those scriptures.

There are so many children that need to be adopted. A gay couple can provide a family for many of those children. Those children could then be sealed to their parents. That is how they have children in eternity. just imagine for a second you’re told you can’t marry who you love. How would you feel? Would you want to be a member of the church? I think you should become abstinent and not be married since you believe that’s possibe. im looking for scriptures from the cannon — bible, boom d&c etc. there were many leaders proclaiming that blacks shouldn’t have the Priesthood. Yet, it still eventually happened. Can you explain to me how that is different from what’s going on today with gays? I’m all eyes.

Go ahead and educate me. Post all the scriptures that reference homosexuality being wrong.

This is where we go down divergent paths in our thinking. I don’t think being LGBT is a choice. I’m sure some choose but most don’t. An example: A gay Mormon who doesn’t want to be gay but is. There are plenty of gays who don’t want to be gay. If it’s a choice, how do you explain that?

I consider everyone my friend. You’re my brother and good friend.

Yes, when the time is right.

Is this what you call entrapment? Are you trying to back me in a corner so you can say no I can’t get baptized or go the Temple? I really hope I’m misreading this...

Then we shouldn’t expect them to approve of ours.

My position is that God loves all his children, wants them to be happy and in his church. i figured for you, your position that all adults should be able to make their own decision would apply here.

Just for clarification: I think the leadership of the church are following the spirit. It’s the majority of members who are. God knows there would be a mass exodus if they started accepting LGBT. That’s why he hasn’t impressed on the leadership to change church positions on LGBT. Similar to how God knew all along that blacks would receive the Priesthood. He just knew that the members weren’t ready. I’d give it about 20-40 years and it will be changed.

I’m just going to say it like it is. You’ll probably think the same about my position. Please don’t take offense. i think anybody who opposes LGBT folk are heartless, not following the spirit and ignorant. im willing to accept I may not be able to get baptized due to this stance. I’ll wait it out just like blacks and supporters had to wait for the Priesthood. It’s literally the same thing just in our era.

There’s nothing wrong with trans people. It’s no different than a former Catholic who chooses to be LDS. People should be able to live their authentic self’s. Period.

I’ll let you pick the rules. How nice am I? You get to pick the rules and have biased voters.

So do you want to have a debate or no?

How about this... want to set up a debate for Monday? The reason I say Mon is because I’ll have internet hooked up by then. I will be able to use my computer instead of my phone. Topic: Universal Healthcare Format: opening statements, two rebuttals and closing statements. The posts can be as long or as short as we do choose. Then when done we can set up a poll for the audience to decide the winner.

What is the name most people use for the US political system? The only slight difference is that there would be national proposals. Similar to how the states do them now.

Your attitude is off putting that’s why I don’t respond to you in regards to politics.

I’ve never heard of PROUT. I’ll have to read more about it. Tiered is where there are different tiers of economic success. The first tier are those who don’t go to college or don’t work in an in demand field. They would still get a house, insurance, car, food and money for pleasures. As you go to school or work in an in demand field you go up tiers. The higher the tier the better stuff you get. It can be referred to as tiered communism. I just hate to say communism because it has so many negative connotations. The political system would be democracy. you can call it tymeism for short lol

Now you’re speaking my language. Have you ever heard of the tiered theory of an economic system?

I guess we’ll just have to wait and see. If the investigation does lead to some serious indictments regarding Russia collusion are you still going to deny it?
