It is, in the way along with Islam, Judaism, and Catholics are all part of the Judio-christian tree. Meaning they all have a root in the old bible and the general area in/around Egypt/Iran/Turkey, what they once called the "green triangle"

Only when it actually is... read every missing link example thus far that's been given time to fail.


Macro/Micro evolution are terms that the scientific community isn't all that fond of if I'm not mistaken... and rarely used. They count them as the same, evolution.

Thanx!

So their main difference is interpretation of the same basic text...and then the Mormons tossed in their own book to go along with it?

I've also been exorcised! my family thought it would fix kidney failure.

they were wrong
Can we agree that every thing man get's involved with becomes corrupt? If so, why is the church any different? Man is sinful by nature. Is corruption not a fruit of sin?

Jesus did not get you an exorcism lol, your family and who ever did it did. And if someone tried to get me an exorcism in the name of someone, I wouldn't be very into that someone either... but realize that until you know the one who's name they claimed to have done it in, you will not know if they falsely did so.

Jesus did not run the 3 churches you went to, man did. Man is subject to the devil's schemes, corruption, self interest, etc.

Yes and no, its more like this...

Micro evolution: The evolution from Canis lupus to Canis Familiars. (wolf to dog)

Macro evolution: The evolution as shown from Bear to Raccoon, or whale to dolphin.

You should take a read on the golden tablets. Interesting things in there, like satan being jesus's brother. Jesus' traditional role as savior and gateway to heaven is taken by joseph smith.
