Perhaps the goal is a sort of soft evangelism. You cannot convert them if you cannot get them in the door. Is that too cynical?

No one is trying to convert Muslims. The goal of this nonsense is acceptance to the extreme. These people are driven by a naive guilt that forces them to act against their best interest. Homogeneous societies in the West take their "enlightenment" to foolish levels and the unintended consequences are extremely real

But that does not change the fact that millions of Christians do not use the cross for their worship.




If the cross is not included in your worship, you aren't a Christian. Without the Cross, there would be no salvation.

Well, there are 15 million Mormons in the world and 16 million Southern Baptists, so ... yes ... sort of like that.

I have no interest in arguing dogma with you.

If you want to wear your kilt and argue "No True Scotsman," knock yourself out.

Odd, I've seen crosses on the outside and inside of all the Southern Baptist churches I've been to.

Correct.


I wonder what would happen if Eva decided to work closely with the Muslim community and take a pilgrimage to Mecca to promote her lifestyle and religion. Ive always wondered what happens when you bow to Islam as an “infidel”....oh, here you go: Pro Islam couple killed by Islamists

I think you missed the point.

I said that several large denominations don't use the cross and listed the Mormons as one such denomination.

Tittle asked if these denominations were "large" like the Southern Baptists. I showed him that the Mormons and the Southern Baptists are comparably-large.

Sorry, your post made it sound like you were using the Mormons and Southern Baptists both as examples of denominations that don't use the cross.

And a pleasant "good morning" to you, too.

Do Jehovah's Witnesses or Mormons use the cross in their worship? No.

Are there millions of them? Yes.

You will need to explain your disagreement with either of these points.

This viewpoint is one thing that I find so-entertaining about this forum.

Understanding an issue and therefore explaining it is NOT the same thing as "justifying" it or "agreeing with" it. Unlike some on this forum, I am capable of distinguishing between the former and the latter.

STD, you are one of the people that I described in the preceding post.

You cannot seem to grasp the difference between stating facts and advocating a position. (Candidly, I find it difficult to believe that a college-educated person (to the extent that LSU qualifies) would actually BE this stupid, which is why I act on the assumption that you are just a troll).

I think it is a bit silly BOTH (a) for this Swedish church to remove its crosses and (b) for any denomination to worry so much about mere symbolism.

Neither opinion alters the facts.

You can window dress it however you like, but you really don't make a distinction between the two. We get it, you like to argue like some old Jew broad
