Related: About this forumSo, Can Someone Point Me to the Bible Passage That Says God Lives on Planet Kolob….
..and loves polytheism? Now that Billy Graham has taken down the Mormonism is a cult page from his website and Mike Huckabee has told us that we will burn in the fires of Hell if we vote for Obama, I have to assume that Biblical scholars have unearthed some new information. Like a revised Ten Commandments that starts off
I am the Lord Thy God and I have an infinite number of subGods, and you will bow down to your personal subGod, who will in turn bow down to His subGod and so on until someone finally bows down to Me.
Because according to Mormons every Mormon male who dies becomes a God with his---sorry, His own planet and His own chosen people, making Mormonism a polytheistic religion much like Hinduism or Voodoo. And I am sure that Mike Huckabee and Billy Graham and all the other Fundamentalists would not make such claims unless they had the Scripture to back them up. Not about something like there being more than one God. I mean, dude! That is the most basic tenet of monotheism, which is what I was always taught Christianity is.
Also, God Prime (aka Elohim) is not from the planet Earth. He is from Kolob. And God did not make us. Some subGod did. The same way that all the subGods to be (like Mitt Romney) are making Their people to populate Their own planets. That's "Their" with a capitol T, because there is more than one of Them. And They don't come from Earth. They come from Kolob. Which I can't find referenced in the Bible. Maybe Rev. Graham or Huckabee can point out that passage for us, just so we are clear about why we are going to Hell is we don't vote for Mittens? I want to make sure Huckabee and Graham did not pick up a copy of a science fiction novel instead a Bible, when they came to their decision. Because I don't think we get do-overs when it comes to Hell.

(115,691 posts)including Christianity in a lot of respects. But most mainstream Christians consider Mormons to be heretics (for the reasons listed in the OP). It just doesn't square with the beliefs of Christians as stated in the Nicene Creed and the New Testament. So what Billy Graham is doing by scrubbing the "cult" reference on his web site and by endorsing Romney is basically saying he's fine with a heretic being President of the United States - even though he and most other evangelicals have always had hissy fits over candidates they consider insufficiently Christian. In other words, he's a hypocrite. So is Huckabee, who is saying if you vote for Obama - who is a traditional Christian - you'll go to hell. But you won't go to hell if you vote for a heretical polytheist?
Why did Billy Graham do this? Is it because Obama is black? Is it because Graham is rich?

OTOH, as religion is ultimately, always, used as a boogie-man to control people to do what the rich and powerful want done, it's really no surprise. The best part, to me, is that all the non-prophets have virtually destroyed xianity, one of the most hateful, destructive viruses that have ever damaged mankind. Their lies and hypocrisy and fear and smear tactics will exist forever in digital archives, available for any who choose to reach out of the scary box they were born into and seek the truth.
Fuck them. They've been fucking humanity for centuries.
Anyway, I think Planet Kolob may somehow relate to "Gog" and "Magog" in the buybull. Baby Jesus had an ear infection that day and didn't hear it right.

(13,485 posts)There are a lot of secret teachings that refer to Kolob and all the extra god stuff which has been saved for the most devout Mormons. None of it's very secret anymore and there is a hell of a lot of other crazy stuff. It has to be an embarrassment to that establishment being in the open, but I doubt that matters to those who want to believe.
The book of Mormon is basically about Christ supposedly visiting North American natives who it seems were lost tribes of Israel who came to America in boats from the middle east. There were 2 waring family members the Nephites (good) and the Lamonites (bad). Moroni (a good guy) wrote about the Christ visitation and his civilizations history on golden tablets and buried them. But then the Nephites were killed off by the Laminites and those guys' skin was turned dark as a curse... oh geess... it's such a stupid novel. It seems Elohim (God) had this thing about cursing white people with dark skin when they were bad. It's such racist crap.
My apologies to those few Mormon Democrats on this site but you can't blame people for seeing this for what it is. I couldn't imagine seeing it otherwise but I'm not Mormon.

being the god of his own little planet.
