The Narrow Path Ministries

My brother, who loves scientific theory, and who is agnostic (not atheist), is of the opinion that the theory of evolution and faith in God aren't necessarily mutually exclusive and that evolution is often misunderstood. He just made this video about evolution (a theory which he finds compelling) Le...

jriccitelli I reread my response and I just wanted to apologize, I came off a lot more accusing than your post had warranted. It's easy to miss part of a quote like that I’m sure I’ve done it plenty of times myself. While I think it should always be pointed out so that it can be corrected, I didn’t ...

Jriccitelli, I talk to people from time to time, who claim that Mormonism is so unbelievable that it is incomprehensible to them that a thinking person could believe it, but yet, when I ask them for examples of what is so unbelievable, they often times have to twist and distort things to make their ...

Jriccitelli, No apology needed. I have nothing against sarcasm, I just couldn’t tell you were being sarcastic, thanks for the clarification. It isn’t that I am not aware of the arguments made to try to discredit the witnesses, it is that I don’t find them convincing. You cited three pieces of eviden...

Jriccitelli, You brought up some great points that well deserve discussion. You also said: “All witnesses are credulous, you know it.” If I 'knew' the witnesses were credulous, but I used their witnesses as evidence anyway that would be deceitful and dishonest.

You brought up some good insights about how the LDS church is able to pull this off.

A believing LDS is typically strongly convinced that God cares about where ...

First I would point out that, like most denominations I assume, you don’t have to fully agree with everything taught to be in full fellowship but you present a difficult question to answer because there are so many different types of people who would react to a youth in different ways. My dad as a y...

Outside of the Sunday meetings, every worthy and willing man goes “home teaching” where he is assigned a few families to visit during the month to share a brief spiritual message, encourage them to continue in family prayer, scripture study etc, and will make sure they are temporally taken care of. ...

Well you are all cordially invited to join me at church any time or you can visit any LDS church and you’ll find something similar. We do our missionary work outside so our church services are primarily meant for making disciples of Jesus out of those who already believe. (visitors are welcome of co...

The historicity of the Book of Mormon is also an interesting subject. I think that if you were to gather 100 archeologists and anthropologists into a room and ask them to determine if it was a hoax or not, most, if not all, would come out saying that it probably is. This however is due I think mostl...
