First of all, I know just who you are talking about, so I'll ping him, since you didn't.
Second, I don't EVER recall Jeff saying anything remotely resembling "God DAMN America!"
To the contrary, Jeff is a bona fide patriot who IMO would probably be hard pressed not to deck anyone who said such within earshot.
So tell me again why Jeff - no matter what his religion (and a religion I do not share with him, nor do I care a whit for Mitt) - does not have the moral standing as a patriotic American to condemn Reverend Wright without any caveat to his personal religious beliefs.
Jeff says he's been a Mormon for 40 years...
...that means he was Lds around 1972-1978 -- when Lds practiced open racism by disallowing blacks to hold the priesthood...
No priesthood, no temple recommend;
no temple recommend, no temple access;
no temple access, no ability to be married in the temple for eternity -- a requirement for the highest Mormons if they want to live in the celestial kingdom;
no marriage & no celestial kingdom, then no living with Heavenly Father forever.
And...if you don't live forever with Heavenly Father, you might as well call it "damnation" -- even if Mormons don't always do. Therefore, Mormons DO essentially "damn" America to a life minus living with Heavenly Father forever...(Even non-temple Mormons are so "damned")
So tell me again why Jeff - no matter what his religion (and a religion I do not share with him, nor do I care a whit for Mitt) - does not have the moral standing as a patriotic American to condemn Reverend Wright without any caveat to his personal religious beliefs.
It's not Jeff's religion that "disqualifies" him from such commentary...It's this comment he was making to NoRedTape -- indicating that commenting on the religious ties/beliefs/convictions/worldviews of a POTUS candidate is somehow supposedly out of bounds:
May 8, 2012, to NoRedTape: Do you really have to make this thread an anti-LDS thing? ...As to religion, if you must make it about that... Source: Santorum endorses one-time rival Romney
No religious hypocrisy being practiced here, eh?
Tis OK to make threads an anti-Islamic "thing" as long as it pertains to Obama, eh? But Mormonism -- per some Mormon FREEPERs -- is somehow "sacrosanct" from similar dissection?
This individual who is acting like some kid of liberal, whiney, stalker has been following me around all day posting this swill.
I tried to reason with them a few times, but they would have none of that and kept at it. I finally responded directly HERE at POST 16 on another thread.
Take a read if you are so inlcined. I regard them as background noise now...sort of like a field rat out in the foothills when you're hunting Elk. Nothing to get worked up about...just not worth it.
OBTW, Colo, for your info...just keep refereing back to that link above anytime you feel the need to keep up with your childish stalking and whining. I've got more important things to do.
Finally, dirtboy, as to the topic of this thread, I saw an hour long Hannity tonight all about Wright and the new about it too. I figure they will keep on talking about it for weeks, if not months.
Pretty shrewd move by Romney IMHO...the info is out there and others are getting it spread around even further...no need for Romney to spend money for what he is getting for free. Leaves him to concentrate on the economy and Obama's atrociuous record.
IF ROMNEY BECOMES THE GOP NOMINEE, HERE'S WHY I WILL VOTE FOR HIM
