Date: 11/25/2002 5:39:00 PM  From Authorid: 16845    *Do not due LOL  
Date: 11/25/2002 5:41:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 57478    i told you im a religion air head! why why, WHY!!??
Date: 11/25/2002 5:42:00 PM  From Authorid: 16845    here I'll go look but your free to look at the mormon website...www.lds.org  
Date: 11/25/2002 5:46:00 PM  From Authorid: 16845    "Children are a gift from God

We don’t create life—God does. While we may participate as a mother or a father in bringing a child into the world, that child is a gift from our Creator.
Human life is sacred and should be treated with reverence from its beginning to its end. "
  
Date: 11/25/2002 5:47:00 PM  From Authorid: 28848    Because they have lots and lots of wives??...I dunno...LoL!  
Date: 11/25/2002 5:50:00 PM  From Authorid: 16845    Question:
Why is family so important to your Church?

Answer:
Gordon B. Hinckley, President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, said:
"A nation will rise no higher than the strength of its homes. If you want to reform a nation, you begin with families, with parents who teach their children principles and values that are positive and affirmative and will lead them to worthwhile endeavors. That is the basic failure that has taken place in America. And we are making a tremendous effort to bring about greater solidarity in families. Parents have no greater responsibility in this world than the bringing up of their children in the right way, and they will have no greater satisfaction as the years pass than to see those children grow in integrity and honesty and make something of their lives, adding to society because they are a part of it."
  
Date: 11/25/2002 5:50:00 PM  From Authorid: 50791    I do not know either but I've heard its because they are taught to love children so therefore they have lotsa of em. I'm not sure though.  
Date: 11/25/2002 5:52:00 PM  From Authorid: 16845    and just for the record the church doesn't support polygamy....even their website states that those who participate are not part of the church and IF a member is thought to be a polygamist they are excommunicated.  
Date: 11/25/2002 5:56:00 PM  From Authorid: 28848    I was just kidding!!   
Date: 11/25/2002 5:57:00 PM  From Authorid: 53052    because they don't believe in any forms of birth control  
Date: 11/25/2002 6:16:00 PM  From Authorid: 20296    I believe what I learned while attending the mormon church is a believe that the second coming can not happen until all the souls from whereever (i think heaven) come down and are birthed. not sure though......but I like what becky said as I know familes are of the most importance to mormons. they have this thing called family home evenings.....becky! did you do those? they are great family time to learn and share loved them and I still try to incorporate some of the things I learned from that church into my daily life.  
Date: 11/25/2002 6:57:00 PM  From Authorid: 44960    Hmm,,, now I know why Mormons have a happy face all the time....It must be nice!!  
Date: 11/25/2002 7:29:00 PM  From Authorid: 16845    Moms family was huge one it cb before he dad passed away....and we did it for a short while until I told them it was 'dumb' Bwahaha LMAO Release I know that's just one of the many misconceptions *I* even had it for a while hehe so I just thought I'd say it hehe  
Date: 11/25/2002 8:23:00 PM  From Authorid: 43340    actually, you have no right to say that we do not believe in birth control, midnight, next time research on the mormon religion, i am so sick and tired of people posting about us!
Date: 11/25/2002 9:15:00 PM  From Authorid: 58953    my uncle is mormon and he says that they dont belive in birth control becasue a child is a gift from god. to author 43340 everybody post things abotu differnt religions not just yours.  
Date: 11/25/2002 10:14:00 PM  From Authorid: 23610    I was a practicing Mormon for many years. Actually, the first thing that attracted me to the religion was their family values. I came from a very dysfunctional family and I saw how important family was to them and I saw the love and respect that was given in families and I liked that. Why do they have so many children? The same reason why anyone would have a lot of children....because they want them and they love them. I know Mormon families that are small and I know families with a lot of kids. Like any other grouping it is a generalization to say that they all have large families. And....they do use birth control. They are not against it. Although I am no longer an actual "member" of the Mormon church anymore....I still have a great deal of respect for them and have learned many things from them that I now carry over to my own life and practice in my own family.  
Date: 11/30/2002 9:10:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 57478    ok im sorry... but that's why i asked you and yeah... that's why i made this post... sorry to even offend you.. i though it said that on my post...
