A lot to say

So, the past few days have been interesting. For one, I play Evony, and things have been heating up there, then I've also gone onto the official Mormon website and spoken to a few missionaries, and then there was my ear infection, and last night's drama.

My ear infection is better, but I still can't hear that clearly in my right ear, at least its not as bad as my ears were in USA.

Then with the Mormons, I do tend to wander on that subject, but it amuses me. I went on pretending not to know anything about the church, and some of the missionaries get extremely rude when you quote the Bible to them. LOL! And then there is also the funny fact that you can not copy the conversations. So, they are protecting themselves. The conversation I liked the most was with Tylor. I first asked him why they don't drink or smoke, and he said that it damages our bodies, and our bodies are a temple of God, so, it damages our souls too. I completely understand and support that. I do smoke and drink, so, I know how I feel after a wild night, and when you feel like that, its hard to focus on your spiritual life.

Well, then I asked him why their church say that all other churches are an "abomination to God". He said he's never heard that and that they respect all churches. That was a lie, here is why:

My object in going to inquire of the Lord was to know which of all the sects was right, that I might know which to join. No sooner, therefore, did I get possession of myself, so as to be able to speak, than I asked the Personages who stood above me in the light, which of all the sects was right—and which I should join. I was answered that I must join none of them, for they were all wrong; and the Personage who addressed me said that all their creeds were an abomination in his sight .... He again forbade me to join with any of them (Joseph Smith 2:18-20).

I asked him if he knew what that was about, and he started telling me the story of Joseph Smith. Then when it came to JS seeing God, I told him that's impossible. He asked why, and I said because we learnt in Sunday school that no one can see God. He quoted:

Exodus 33:11 (New International Version)
11 The LORD would speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks with his friend. Then Moses would return to the camp, but his young aide Joshua son of Nun did not leave the tent.

And then I quoted:

Exodus 33:20 (New International Version)
20 But," he said, "you cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live."

He then told me that I just wanted to argue and not learn (which is true, because I know more than he does), and then left the conversation.

First off, all of the missionaries I spoke to left the conversation, they also take extremely long to talk to you, and they are rude. And that "click here to talk to someone" is just for people who do not belong to the church, I told the one missionary that I was a member (which is a half truth), and she then replied with a mission statement, and basically told me to leave.

If you tell them that you are a member and you have questions, they direct you to your Bishop or the missionaries in your area. They are not there to help.

So, my anti-Mormon list of Biblical verses grew a bit again. I intend on researching more and more, like above, they use the Bible to try and convince you of their lies, and then it gets contradicted a few verses afterwards. They always say that if someone uses the Bible to say Mormonism isn't true, that people bend the truth, but what the heck are they doing then?

Anyway, last night then. This is a story I want to remember, so, I'm writing it down now.

My parents went to the bushveld for the weekend. I came home from work, and played on the Internet, because none of my friends wanted to go out. Again. My sister then told me that she is going to Hatfield with a friend. Later, I went to sleep, I didn't fall asleep though, I was watching TV. My dad phoned at 02:39 am. He said that he received an emergency text from my sister (it's a company that sets up an emergency contact list, and when you press your emergency number, it notifies everyone on your contact list), and he asked if I knew where she was. I said yes, but I'm not exactly sure where she is, Hatfield is a big, crowded place.

Then, I notified our community security that my sister might be in danger. We have two-way radios in the house to create security for the community, people help out and report suspicious activity. I gave the car registration number, her cellphone number, service provider, and where she might be, what road she could have taken, etc etc. I don't panic in these situations, never have. So, I got into the car to drive to Hatfield, two-way radio in the one hand, cellphone in the other, changing gears, speeding, talking on both devices... I am talented!

My mom and dad were phoning me the whole time, people in the community were looking for more details and answers and trying to report to me, and then there are road signs and traffic to look out for.

I went to Hatfield and was out of the area, so, I couldn't get the reports on the two way-radio anymore, but I did manage to notify the Hatfield police that my sister might be high-jacked or robbed, and they send out a call looking for her car. On the way back, I came back within signal, and the first thing I heard that was that my sister is at home safely. One of the residents were with her, and I thanked all of them for they're quick and effective response. They replied with "this was a really good exercise, thank you for all the correspondence".

The people of the community notified three police districts, they traced her cellphone signal and followed her. When me and my parents tried phoning, her phone just went over to voicemail.

To make matters worse, my dad told me the text could been an hour late because they were in a bad reception area, and then I realised, an hour before they called, some idiot almost drove into our gate and went speeding away, I heard it and saw the lights, but I didn't see the car.

My sister could have been raped, murdered, killed, high-jacked, robbed, etc etc.

What happened? Her drunk friend tried to phone her parents and pressed the emergency button on her phone. Needless to say, my dad is livid.

That's all for now, I'm going to go get dressed and then go out with friends.
