I gave my 9 year old grandson a coin yesterday that has the 10 commandments (Way of the Master coin) on it and was explaining what was said on both sides to him. He has been raised Catholic, so like the good grandmother I am (lol) I was trying to teach him the Truth.
He told me, and I couldn't believe it when I heard it, had to have him repeat it several times, but he stated he has been taught that Jesus Christ and Satan were brothers...and Satan was the "bad" brother and had to be punished. I about fainted.
Deception/Delusion is not limited to adults, but to our children also. We really have to be stead fast and grounded in our Faith and Word of God to counteract this horrible deception being perpetuated on a world that is so oblivious to the facts and Truth of God.
Keep standing fast! You aren't alone...together we can make a difference. I will keep you in my prayers Jubilee!

His delusion was slightly different from yours. You both have delusions though.
Nine years old, huh? He's already been through the Catechism and First Communion and the Catholics do not teach that.
Granny's lyin' fer Jeebus.
... He has been raised Catholic, so like the good grandmother I am (lol) I was trying to teach him the Truth.
Like how insects have 4 legs and that there was a fermament over the Earth?

O NOES! Not Mormonism!

Damn, there goes my irony meter.
(Are the tags off?)
your kid's a bit slow. it's not that he hasn't been taught the "truth," it's that he can't comprehend it. also, being as you think we are all children of gawd, shouldn't the angels (even the former angels) also be children of gawd? so lucifer really is jesus' brother.
I hope your son or daughter finds out that you are trying to brainwash their kid and slaps the shit out of you.
Oh and that teaching is definitely Mormon. Most of those folks are way more tolerant than assholes like you, so I don't care what they believe. I have Mormon friends, but no Rapturite friends. Wonder why.
At least his version is more accurate to what the Bible says(though not ALL, it's not brotherhood what links God and Satan but close), than yours. To begin with, Catholics are Christians, didn't you know that?
How quaint, i always thought that in the way of the Master, there is only one commandment:
"I am the Master, and you will obey me".
Maybe they way to truely good Grandmother is to learn about Catholics and maybe find they do teach the gospel and the Ten Commandments and on a Sunday Mass they have four bible readings, plus the Nicene Creed,plus The Lord's Prayer and some have Sunday School too. Trust me he will know the bible pretty well.
"Deception/Delusion is not limited to adults, but to our children also."
Yeah, ain't that the truth... but not in the way you might think.
My fundie grandma told us all batshit insane crap too. Trust me all you're likely to do is upset your children and when your grandson is an adult he'll tell stories about his nutty grandma.
And Catholics do NOT teach that Jesus and Satan are brothers so if you're not lying than your grandson is messing with you. Either way someone's onto you about trying to teach him your views.
EnglerP: "How quaint, i always thought that in the way of the Master, there is only one commandment:
"I am the Master, and you will obey me"."
I thought so too. The "Way of the Master" is actually kind of profoundly insecure, when you think about it.
dpareja: "The Way of the Master is to kill the Doctor, and anything that gets in the way, not the 10 Commandments. They're for moral idiots like the Doctor."
I...I...
;_;
You know, it sounds like you've got Mormonism and Catholicism confused . . . One has its headquarters in Rome, and the other is headquartered in Salt Lake City.
If you bothered to go to church with your kid and grandkid, you might know the difference...
I am a great-grandfather (soon to be great-great granpappy).
Deception, or rather Delusion is how religion thrives.
That is why the scientists and the doctors are always the target of the fundies for daring to attempt to solve natures mysteries (and often succeed) as this is how they maintain THIER hold on you. Which is thier true agenda.
Many of the "faithful" seem to gravitate to sites such as RUPTURE READY (oooh! did I menton gravity - shame on me) then wonder why they are lampooned to such an extent.
He told me, and I couldn't believe it when I heard it, had to have him repeat it several times, but he stated he has been taught that Jesus Christ and Satan were brothers...and Satan was the "bad" brother and had to be punished. I about fainted.
Hey, "LindaLee", psssst: I have to tell you something. I will repeat it as often as you want. You can believe me. Please try to avoid to faint, okay? Now take a deep breath and listen:
Jesus and Satan are ... fictional characters. They don't exist in reality. Your Ten Commandments are completely outdated and totally useless for the 21st century. Faith is not the most important thing, quite the contrary: Faith is worthless. Your "Word of God" was written by humans, and no one else.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
