Newcomer4831 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 (edited) Hello, a friend begged me to go to a Game night session within a Mormon "church". He wanted me to see his religion. From there I got into a deep talk about beliefs. From that night, Mormons have kept inviting me to events and I keep going. However a couple days ago, they asked me to come to this forum and join in order to get a pretty grasp on Mormonism. Out of respect for people who also respect me, I have done what they have asked. Intro: I'm a Buddhist. I'm a Buddhist by choice. I have looked at all possible religions with certain rules in my mind. I was fortunate to find Buddhism. I don't know how many Buddhist are actually here, but I can answer questions regarding Buddhism or about my founding on Buddhism. I know from simple conversation that the Mormon community had retro-actively baptized Siddhartha Gautma. I don't see why, since he himself did not believe in a God of Creation, and if he did, he didn't believe he was eternal and questioned where "Sakka/Brahmin" came from.
