    "My-Body"

    Good point. When someone says "my body" he's acknowledging a distinction between himself and his body. Else, a person would say "it's me and I can do what I want with me."

    Pedophilia does not have anything to do with homosexuality.

    How do you see the difference between instinct and orientation? As far as I can tell, I have always been instinctively sexually attracted to women, with no sexual attraction to men. My understanding is that many, if not all, gays and lesbians describe their same sex attraction in the same way.

    Pedophilia does not have anything to do with homosexuality.

    My point is that the simple fact that we have an instinct, an orientation, or a powerful urge to behave in a certain sexual way, does not mean that we should do it. Pedophelia is a fair example. The deciding factor is our moral code, not the existence of the orientation, urge, instinct, etc. Age...

    Spiritual questionnaire-humor me here.

    What are the attributes of God(s)? Love, mercy, justice, omnipotent, omniscient, knows us individually, looks upon us with paternal affection. Do you believe in angels/demons? Yes. Are humans good or bad? Both. Is there a Heaven and/or Hell? Yes, both. What is your worship/service...

    Hello

    I'm not sure if I'm doing this in the right place... I'm a Mormon, I like to learn how others think, and I enjoy explaining why I believe and live the way I do. I was on this forum a couple of years ago and now I'm back. I changed my name, cause I want a fresh start. Recent events in my life...

    Pedophilia does not have anything to do with homosexuality.

    From what I understand, a homosexual is no more likely, and perhaps less likely, to be a pedophile, than is a heterosexual. But, I do believe that it's reasonable to compare all sexual orientations. Is pedophelia an "orientation"? Are some people born with this orientation? If the answer is yes...

    Belief in the Trinity

    I voted no, which should come as no surprise since I'm a mormon. I was not aware that there is a substantial number of Christians who are moving away from the Trinity as an explanation of the relationship between Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Is there?

    Well I am one. I think I know quite a bit about it. Love it.

    theists: do you ever worry about paying for your sins after you die?

    I don't worry about that. I know that I'm trying to do what is right, in spite of the many mistakes that I continually make. I continue to call on God for forgiveness and strength to do better. I believe he grants such and because of his mercy, I will be in good shape in the next life.

    Christians..."Trinity"?

    If a person has believed in the Trinity his/her whole life, I think that when she dies and comes before God the Father, she will see him as he is, an individual with form. I don't think she will be surprised. I think it will all seem so natural, beautiful, intuitive, and true. She'll say to...

    How your religion views drugs/alcohol?

    Mormons are expected to abstain from alcohol and illegal drugs. Prescriptions should only be used as directed by a doctor. While one is under the unfluence, he or she is not as receptive to the spiritual promptings that come from God. God wants us to be in control of our senses so he can direct...
