Hey Hemidakota—
I still think your avatar should be a Dodge
Dakota pickup truck w/ the
Hemi engine logo. I can only assume you own one (or aspire to--in which case you better hurry, ChryCo's going down). So do you?
Have to say the LDS responses (what few we've seen) have been surprising. The initial response (on the other thread) was that the definition was overly inclusive. This was followed by a-train’s assertion that it wasn’t inclusive enough (the Church of the Firstborn includes everyone). And then we have your somewhat cryptic reply.
Hoping you can unpack yours a little for us. When you say organized—do you mean as Paul describes it in 1 Corinthians 12? In it he writes, “For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body… God has arranged the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be.” Is this what you mean by organization—or do you mean something else?

PS. There seems to be more non-LDS posters engaged on this thread than LDS. Where have all the LDS posters gone?
