The nickname "Mormon, Mormonism" conferred upon the beliefs and doctrines of the early church was used by the original coiners as a scornful epithet, but it is not offensive to the church's members. The official name of the church is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. But "Mormon" certainly works.
We Mormons believe that Jesus is the son of God, and through His atonement and sacrifice we might be saved as we try to live His teachings and commandments.

the first christians were jews who believed that jesus was the messiah. not all jews believed him - the ones who didn't went on beign jews and not following his teachings. for jews, the old testament is the entire bible.

I pack a luna bar, a PB sandwich and water to go to shul. I drink the water no matter what because due to other issues if I don't get enough I dehydrate VERY easily and was given permission from a rabbi to do that a long time ago. Some years I go all day, some years I need to sneak out and go eat one or both of my packed snacks. the decision isn't made by hunger, but by things like being dizzy due to lowering blood sugar (hypoglycemic) and also if my stomach starts to cramp or seriously act up. I always eat at least part of what I pack before I leave the shul so I break fast right after neillah and then go attend the formal break fast and eat there as well...

Nice to see another Edie Izzard fan around. I haven't met too many in Oregon. I like the "cool guy with some groovy ideas" way of thinking of it.

ah yes, i do love him. tend to speak in quotes from 'dress to kill' sometimes. it felt a little edgy quoting a transvestite stand-up comic in a heartfelt conversation about religion, but hey, the man knows his stuff.
