Whoa what?

Baptism isn't required for salvation where did you read that? :wtf:

John 3:5

Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

Many Christians (depending on denomination) holds this view. I don’t.

I was almost baptized by the mormons but they didnt because I told them I struggle with weed:francis:

In hindsight I'm glad they didnt baptize me..but the reason was bs..you cant be baptized in sin

I dont see Jesus turning away a drunkard from being baptized if he really wants to change his life.

But screw the mormons..demonic demoniation:pacspit:

"White Jesus" isn't in the Bible, when the Bible clearly tells you He had the color of sardius or burnished bronze
This is sardius:

"Money tithing" isn't in the Bible, and tithing was for the Levitical priests and the poor, not your everyday pastors. Old Testament tithing was foodstuff and new testament is giving based on your heart. If you give sparingly you will reap sparingly.

Yeah, Mormonism is on some other stuff. They allow you to baptize people that have already been dead. They believe you can use living people as substitutes.

Most Christian denominations hold that if you are baptized once, you don’t need to be baptized again.

But because Mormonism is held as a cult, you would most assuredly need to be baptized again if you leave that sect and want to join another Christian church.

that's a big one

Another one, especially from atheists, is that God said the earth is flat.

Isaiah 40-22 circle sphere - creation.com
Similarly, far from supporting the concept of a geocentric universe, the Tanach actually promotes the opposite (i.e., the heliocentric) theory:
הֲלוֹא תֵדְעוּ
הֲלוֹא תִשְׁמָעוּ
הֲלוֹא הֻגַּד מֵרֹאשׁ לָכֶם
:הֲלוֹא הֲבִינוֹתֶם מוֹסְדוֹת הָאָרֶץ
...הַיֹּשֵׁב עַל־חוּג הָאָרֶץ וְיֹשְׁבֶיהָ כַּחֲגָבִים
Don't you know?
Haven't you heard?
Hasn't it been told to you ever since the beginning?
Have you still not understood [who it was that laid] the foundations of the Earth?
[It was] He who is enthroned so high above the Earth's orbit that its inhabitants seem like bugs [to Him]...
(Y'shaʿyohu 40:21-22)
Incidentally, the same metaphor portraying human beings seen from far above as looking 'like bugs' (כַּחֲגָבִים kahagovim) also occurs in B'midbor 13:33, where Moshah's twelve 'Explorers' report that they had spotted huge giants at Havron, who were so big that they had 'felt like bugs' (בְעֵינֵינוּ כַּחֲגָבִים vʿeineinu kahagovim) in comparison to them, adding 'and we seemed the same to them' (וְכֵן הָיִינוּ בְּעֵינֵיהֶם w'chen hoyinu bʿeineiham—although I have here translated חֲגָבִים hagovim loosely as 'bugs', strictly speaking חָגָב hogov is a species of locust and is one of those permitted as food per Wayyiqroʾ 11:22). Apart from anything else, this shows that the early Jews understood the concept of perspective: that is, that a distant object appears smaller than an object of the same size that is closer to the observer.
