Depends. An infinite number out of how many? :smile: |

An infinite number out of how many? :smile:[/QUOTE] First Commandment of this Thread is: Thou shalt not invoke the math of Don Blazys. Re: Zeta, I don't claim to be an expert in LDS by any stretch, but I thought the difference between the Creator Gods and the gods men can become would apply. I'd be happy to read your thoughts on the subject though. |

Where is that in the Bible? :huh: |
[QUOTE=chappy;378087]First Commandment of this Thread is: Thou shalt not invoke the math of Don Blazys.
...[/quote] I hear and shall comply. (Actually I thought his involved 0/0 being well-defined, which is hardly his or anyone's math.) |
[QUOTE=Xyzzy;378089]Where is that in the Bible?
:huh:[/QUOTE] Even the Bible doesn't claim at all truth is contained in the Bible. however you might start in Genesis 3:22. |
[QUOTE=Xyzzy;378089]Where is that in the Bible?
:huh:[/QUOTE] I'm with chappy, in that not all truth is in the Bible. But my favorite proof-text for the idea of deification is Romans 8:16-17. I also like Psalm 82:6 "You are gods" which was quoted by Jesus (as reported in John 10:34-39) in connection to those doubting his relationship to God. -------------- chappy, In Mormon thought, the difference between Heavenly Father and his exalted children is only a difference in degrees, not in categories. But this is a topic without a lot of information, so people are left to speculate. [Of course, my original comment was just in good fun. I recognize the point that I currently believe one, and only one, of a myriad of possibilities about potential deities.] |

Why? |
[QUOTE=chalsall;378105]Why?[/QUOTE]
Are you asking "Why do you believe?" or "Why do you believe in only one of the options?" |
[QUOTE=Zeta-Flux;378107]Are you asking "Why do you believe?" or "Why do you believe in only one of the options?"[/QUOTE]
The latter, primarily. |
Do you not similarly believe in only one of the options?
