TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

1Corinthians 6:3  Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life!

I don't really like Paul, and in the rest of the context he's talking about settling disputes between believers.  NOT sure where he got this idea, but it seems to have mutated heavily.

If the story of man's placement over the angels and subsequent angelic rebellion in Islam are taken into account it's easy to see why some folks think like the LDS. 

I think it's not worth considering it unless you've really experienced an angelic visitation and told them off.  If you did I recommend you seek medical attention or watch the movie "frailty" and wait for a list.
You can't get out backward.  You have to go forward to go back.. better press on! - Willie Wonka, PBUH

Life can be seen as a game with no reset button, no extra lives, and if the power goes out there is no restarting.  If that's all you see life as you are not long for this world, and never will get it.

Doesn't the LDS church teach that part of the believers will go on to have their own terrestrial planets that they will be like unto gods over?

:lulz: That's probably the worst pyramid scheme ever.
Everything comes to an end, reader. It is an old truism to which may be added that not everything that lasts, lasts for long. This latter part is not readily admitted; on the contrary the idea that an air castle lasts longer than the very air of which it is made is hard to get out of a person's head, and this is fortunate, otherwise the custom of making those almost eternal constructions might be lost.

I'd just name my planet Vaginka and build my empire with enslaved misogynists.

Problem solved.
