It appears, that after taking a gander at the scientoligist thread (which transformed into a Mormon beatdown), that a lot of folks think they know what "mormons do and do not believe", and throw it around. Thats not uncommon. most of you guys prob dont know any Mormons in real life, and some pastors and professors give out infomation thats flat out wrong.
I wont surgarcoat anything. If you have a question, id be more than happy to answer it, or find a place where you can get the answer if I dont know.
Im not going to sit here and try and convice people that my church is best, or try to *prove* anything. I'll be honest, and forthright. I cant *prove* anything. There is a little scientific data, produced by respected scholars from groups you may or may not accept...but that isnt enough, and i know that. if you could prove something with science, it wouldnt survive as a religion.
I also think that most of you know that I do not have a scientific background. I'll post a few links, i'll try to answer questions about them the best I can, but i cant promise much. My background is in political science and music. I never post in science threads, and i even rarely post in theological ones.
