Question by Insallah: Why dont pagans see their religions were started the same way Mormonism was ?
Meaning you think mormonism is crazy only becuase its new and you can actually see how it all played out. Yet you believe in religions that were started the same way!
So why can’t pagans see there is nothing different between their religion and mormonism?
So convert to peace of Islam I’d say.
Who said we all worship this same intelligent energy? I never did.

happy to burst your bubble but islam was started exactly the same way as was christianity.
Give your answer to this question below!
All of the abrahamic religions were based upon paganism, including yours.
oh, get back to gender studies, insallah!!
Islam is garbage.

Pagan religions were the first religions, after animism. You’re dumb, Muzzie.
And Islam was started in the same wasy as Mormonism. An angle visits pervert (pbuh) and tells him that the Bible has been corrupted. Said pervert (pbuh) makes new bible and goes into polygamy.
PWN’d
Why can’t Islam see that their hateful, warmongering religion is the same as all the other false philosophies that believe in non-existent supernatural beings?
To be honest, i dont care. And since all religions worship the same mass of intelligent energy. No reason to convert
They have Nothing in common! Mormonism is a ‘revealed’ religion – as is Islam.
The pre-Christian religions (and therefore pre-Islamic) are not revealed religions. There is no one founder, no book or books of truths. It is a much more natural and even logical way of perceiving the idea of Deity.
Sorry, no interest in converting. I turned away from the idea of monotheism long ago, and I don’t intend to go back for any reason. You take your Paradise and your Qur’an, and the best to you. Leave me with my gods and my Other World and we can both respect each others views and live in peace.
I don’t see why the fact that a religion is newer than others means it’s automatically “crazy” or irrational, just because nobody thought of it a long time ago.
Using the same logic, one could say that it’s crazy to believe that the earth revolves around the sun, because people believed first that the sun revolved around the earth. Weren’t the people who came up with the earth-around-sun idea at first (the people following the newer train of thought) considered crazy? Now we know they are right. Didn’t people a long time ago believe that mental illness was caused by possession by demons?
In fact, if everyone thought the newer trains of thought were crazy, we’d still be speaking in grunts, eating raw meat because we had no fire to cook it, carrying everything by hand because we wouldn’t have wheels, and dragging women around by the hair.
My point is, just because people thought of something a long time ago CLEARLY does not mean that it is necessarily more logical.
for some unknown reason human beings seek the comfort of ‘Belief’ no matter how strange the idea. More importantly. people believe what their parents and neighbors say and do
what we usually call “paganism” or nature mystery worship is rather different from the ‘reveled tablets’ of Joseph smith. Mormonism, and Islam and Christianity were “revealed ” sacred texts
the OT was a collection of writings. Hinduism is a collection of ancient myths and stories
Read Joseph Campbells works about about religions , their similarites and psychology

Hyuk hyuk hyuk. Islam is an OK religion, but it sure does produce a lot of nuts (even more than Christianity) who ask questions the way you do – the “why don’t…?” formula. (Trying to sound like a contirubor to “Hints from Heloise” and bossy at the same time, like “why don’t people know they can polish chrome with peanut butter?” or “why don’t people realise it’s as easy to cook two meals and freeze one later?”
