DAVEH: Assuming you are referring to God the Father: As man is, God once was is a popular LDS belief.
DAVEH:  I don't have a definitive answer, Michael.

-Michael D:  OK, But the critical question then would be how did Father become a man (understanding your position that he was such before becoming God).  And can you give us LDS sources for this?

DAVEH:  Though it is not found in our Standard Works, Joseph Smith taught "As man is, God once was.  As God is, man may become."  (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith)

Michael D: I got you Dave H. Is that considered an authorative
DAVEH:  Not officially by the Church, but there are many LDS folks who consider it pretty "authorative".
/divinely inspired statement from him?
DAVEH:  I would think most LDS folks consider it to be "divinely inspired".
Sorry, I have not been able to get into alot of replying to mail. I will try as I am able. Hopefully, I will get up to normal speed soon.
DAVEH:  Don't fret about it, Michael.  I think we all (excepting perhaps Glenn) have the same problem!  :-)
