< I know lots of Mormon people in my area and they are the nicest people you would want to meet. My disagreement with them is doctrinal. I do not believe there are many gods and I do not believe that God was once a man and that he attained godhood through obedience to his god and so on back in an eternal regression. > It isn't just the Mormons (who may be some of the "nicest" people around in a weird standoffish way), but the Jews and Muslims as well with their varying accounts of what Jehovah or Allah wants from us. These are what I call the Bedouin Religions. It isn't that they don't have any value to the people who believe in their sundry texts and dogma, but that they don't provide a coherent doctrine and each claims to have a unique grasp of THE UNIVERSAL truth. That such closely united religions can have such manifestly different set of rules suggests that they are full of errors.
