Well I don't take it as an attack. I don't claimn to be an expert on it and I have to admit it was a long time ago that I was in that discussion. However I can say that my friend's dad most definitely seemed to believe it and he was showing me excerpts from books about it.

I wish I could argue it, really I do, but I know it's been a huge source of contention between the high and mighty, self-procalimed "correct" Christians who go around labeling cults, and the Mormon church, for decades.

However I'm not convinced that it's not a genuine belief among some if not many.

At any rate I just used that to go into my We Might Have a Lame God Theory becasue I suddenly remembered it, and wasn't prepared to get into a theological discussion about something like that. ;-)

I will concede though that it's probably not something that's generally taught, but as I said I'm not convinced that it's a misinterpretation. If anything, I think it's very carefully worded so as to be easily defended as being misinterpreted when need be. But that's just based on the impression I had back when I was learning about it and reading stuff about it and talking about it.
