    I am Roman Catholic, and do not consider myself a Christian, nor an "off-shoot".

    Try again..

    "true" in what sense of the word? I really don't care who's "true" or not. Each one of your little groups who call themselves christians think they're the "right one" , the "true" one... to me you're all wrong, it's all silly :eek:

    History

    In 1872, Brigham Young, Second Prophet of the Mormon Church, was arrested for bigamy. He had 25 wives.

    http://news.bostonherald.com/national/view.bg?articleid=154973

    Polygamist fugitive Warren Jeffs arrested in Nevada
    By Associated Press
    Tuesday, August 29, 2006 - Updated: 03:56 PM EST

    LAS VEGAS - The charismatic leader of a polygamous Mormon splinter group was captured during a traffic stop three months after being put on the FBI’s Most Wanted List and faces charges he arranged marriages between underage girls and older men.

    Warren Steed Jeffs, 50, was arrested without incident...


    Sorry we do not have a picture of Brigham Young, just have to make do with the pic of Warren Jeffs who 134 years on from 1872 is on the same deal, seems consistency is part of this charismatic religion :eek:

    Hang on. Let's backtrack one step here. You said "christian-offshoots". That would imply you would know what a Christian is to label one an aff-shoot.

    Does this mean you are making a statement you can not back up?

    What he is trying to say is that he does not know what he is trying to say. He is an "off-shoot" of moonbatisianity.:D

    Yo would have to have an independent thought to be an offshoot of anything. He's just a mouthpiece of the last opinion piece he read.
