Dave,
And who defined "anti-mormon" to mean "anti-mormonsim"? You said the
mormons did. That is no different than any other word they have redefined
for their own purposes.

This is the problem with the dual meanings that mormons assign to
words...they don't mean what they used to mean. So, we can talk all day
with them about soiritual matters and we think that they are in agreement
with us, when really the words mean something different to them. Like the
Queen of Hearts said, "When I use a word it means exactly what I want it to
mean!" *
DAVEH: I have chatted with DavidM enough to know what he believes (or
should I say doesn't believe) about the pre-mortal existence of our
spirits, just as he explained to you in a parallel post today Perry. But
I do find it amusing that you continue to criticize Mormons for having dual
meanings when you do the same thing with the term *anti-Mormon.*

DavidM responded: Yes.
Perry cautioned:
David, be careful here. When a mormon says "pre-mortal existence" I
believe they mean a little more than you may know. To the mormon I believe
that to say "pre-mortal existence" refers to the existence of jesus,
satan, you, me, and all other humans in a pre-mortal spiritual state as
spiritual siblings, whereas, I believe that you may think of the premortal
state as being prior to the time Adam was created.
Essentially, you just agreed with the sly ol' mormon boy that prior to
your being born into a body (pre-mortal state), you believe you had free
agency, along with satan, jesus, and all of your myriad spiritual
siblings. Is that what you believe?
