One thing i like from mormons is their obsession with genealogies
I can trace mine basically all the way back to Adam along some lines
Tritheism is perhaps another word you could call the Mormon view of God
three beings unified in purpose, mind, and goal
but we also know there are many other gods because of what the Book of Abraham and the Book of Moses say.
what kind of autism did i walk into
theology
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.
What are those books
AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN OTHER GODS
they are in the pearl of great price
there's a whole council of them
gods, that is
When where they written?
by abraham a few thousand years ago
and moses a bit after that
brought back by divine inspiration in the 1800s after being lost
you know
LOL
What do you mean
Re-written?
brought back into being by divine inspiration through the light of God
through revelation/translation of ancient Egyptian papyri by Joseph Smith through dictation
and written by a Phelps, Warren, Williams, Cowdery, and Rigdon
the book of moses itself mostly being a retranslation of genesis
being then a part of a greater project to perfect the KJV
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
well said
The whole labyrinth story isn't even about this, it's about a hero who finds the grail through the spiritual golden thread
that cartoon is about 80% correct
I agree with this interpretation, but where does it originate?
I think this is the general interpretation to all these myths involving threads, looms, and arrows
At least from my experience
Or do you mean the origin of the myth?
Clearly hyperborean.
no, I just was wondering if you came up with the interpretation or if you got it from someone else
but it would make sense then as a perennial sort of myth
Oh, from someone else
