One thing i like from mormons is their obsession with genealogies

2021-01-18 00:16:00 UTC  

I can trace mine basically all the way back to Adam along some lines

2021-01-18 00:18:55 UTC  

Tritheism is perhaps another word you could call the Mormon view of God

2021-01-18 00:19:12 UTC  

three beings unified in purpose, mind, and goal

2021-01-18 00:19:52 UTC  

but we also know there are many other gods because of what the Book of Abraham and the Book of Moses say.

2021-01-18 00:19:56 UTC  

what kind of autism did i walk into

2021-01-18 00:20:06 UTC  

theology

2021-01-18 00:21:57 UTC  

but if you want a real in-depth view of the final form of Joseph Smith's and, by extention, Mormon views on the nature of God, it's all written down in the King Follett Sermon only a short time before his death.

2021-01-18 00:26:07 UTC  

What are those books

2021-01-18 00:26:15 UTC  

AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN OTHER GODS

2021-01-18 00:26:21 UTC  

they are in the pearl of great price

2021-01-18 00:26:33 UTC  

there's a whole council of them

2021-01-18 00:26:40 UTC  

gods, that is

2021-01-18 00:26:40 UTC  

When where they written?

2021-01-18 00:26:51 UTC  

by abraham a few thousand years ago

2021-01-18 00:26:56 UTC  

and moses a bit after that

2021-01-18 00:27:26 UTC  

brought back by divine inspiration in the 1800s after being lost

2021-01-18 00:27:34 UTC  

you know

2021-01-18 00:29:53 UTC  

LOL

2021-01-18 00:29:56 UTC  

Come on dude

2021-01-18 00:30:04 UTC  

What do you mean

2021-01-18 00:30:07 UTC  

Re-written?

2021-01-18 00:30:30 UTC  

brought back into being by divine inspiration through the light of God

2021-01-18 00:31:17 UTC  

through revelation/translation of ancient Egyptian papyri by Joseph Smith through dictation

2021-01-18 00:31:34 UTC  

and written by a Phelps, Warren, Williams, Cowdery, and Rigdon

2021-01-18 00:33:05 UTC  

the book of moses itself mostly being a retranslation of genesis

2021-01-18 00:35:23 UTC  

being then a part of a greater project to perfect the KJV

2021-01-18 00:38:44 UTC  

Minos and his wife are never seeing as gods, Minos is a tyrant who is later regarded as a gatekeeper of hell and his wife mingled with a bull as a punishment from Poseidon so it's obviously regarded as something abhorrent

2021-01-18 00:39:08 UTC  

well said

2021-01-18 00:39:10 UTC  

The whole labyrinth story isn't even about this, it's about a hero who finds the grail through the spiritual golden thread

2021-01-18 00:39:40 UTC  

that cartoon is about 80% correct

2021-01-18 00:42:06 UTC  

I agree with this interpretation, but where does it originate?

2021-01-18 00:42:33 UTC  

I think this is the general interpretation to all these myths involving threads, looms, and arrows

2021-01-18 00:42:55 UTC  

At least from my experience

2021-01-18 00:43:04 UTC  

Or do you mean the origin of the myth?

2021-01-18 00:43:08 UTC  

Clearly hyperborean.

2021-01-18 00:43:38 UTC  

no, I just was wondering if you came up with the interpretation or if you got it from someone else

2021-01-18 00:43:47 UTC  

but it would make sense then as a perennial sort of myth

2021-01-18 00:43:47 UTC  

Oh, from someone else
