So I can say with some authority, that nostr needs more debates over whether Mormons count as Christians. They don't, but the debates are entertaining.

It's not even a good debate. 🤣🤣🤣
Jesus...
Lol, I know. I just wish nostr had the breadth of normal people required to get into mineutae on non-self-referential topics. Even debates with you over whether government is inherently evil, get stale pretty quick without a range of less commited viewpoints that can move between the endpoints of the debate.
Can't tell if you are making a point or using as an invective.
That's my cue, I guess. Mormons are the whitest religious group. Jesus was white. Qed, don't at me. Blocked!
Just a lighthearted joke.
It would make more sense audibly.
The funniest thing I have seen is calling Mormanism Islam for white people.
Gonna use that one.
Same XD
Well, the most active people here are generally get similar. The several dozens of us are, IMO, more interesting than most normies. I'm pretty ok with that.
Mormonism doesnt even adhere to the Nicene Creed. How are people even arguing that it's Christianity.
Mostly it is mormons complaining. No one else thinks they are christians. It is a stolen valor thing. They want the respectability of being called Christian without having to believe anything that christians believe.
As a Catholic, that is kind of how I feel about Nicean Christians who want to redefine what Catholic means in the creed so they can still claim it.
That being said. I do actually consider most to be Christian because they have baptism and what baptism does is make someone into a Christian. Thus they are part of the church whether they like it or not.
I'm going to run it past the Mormon homeschoolers and see if they laugh.
Surely they have a great sense of humor. Let us know how it lands
I mean, they do seem to have a sense of humor. They make jokes about showing up late, saying they're on MST, Mormon Standard Time.
And one of them has a relative who shares a fence with one of the SLOMW train wrecks. She joked about gawking at the beefcake dude who walks around with no shirt on.
If we start talking about our new homeschool co-op next year, you'll know it didn't land. 😂
Keep us posted
