So he's focusing on godhood & how's he going to join the ranks of divinity?

Shame on you. How do you people live with yourselves?

You want to focus on a threatening religion? How about the one with over 1 billion followers many of whom are ignorant, violent and suicidal?

Mormons are serving in the US military right now in Iraq bleeding and dying to save YOU from the jihadists.

Shame on you for shaming others.

I didn't know we had only one faith that could be constructively critiqued. (I guessed I missed your universal edict)

As hundreds of thousands of LDS missionaries spread spiritual death by getting others to buy into their working their way to godhood message.

“Mormons are serving in the US military right now in Iraq bleeding and dying to save YOU from the jihadists.”

Mormons are very patriotic.

That guy/gal accuses Mormons of spreading spiritual death by way of LDS Missionaries. Here is an LDS message I received today:

We Cannot Do Wrong and Feel Right
“In order to have joy, you need to understand that, as a child of your Heavenly Father, you inherited divine traits and spiritual needs—and just like a fish needs water, you need the gospel and the companionship of the Holy Ghost to be truly, deeply happy. Because you are the offspring of God (see Acts 17:28), it is incompatible with your eternal nature to do wrong and feel right. It cannot be done. It is part of your spiritual DNA, as it were, that peace, joy, and happiness will be yours only to the degree you live the gospel.”

I was very blessed to read this - especially the “spiritual DNA” part. I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He is my Savior, Redeemer, and the Great Jehovah of the Old Testament. Heavenly Father loves us and the Holy Ghost wants us to ever grow closer to Heavenly Father through Jesus Christ.

I can’t understand why the anti-Mormon folks hate us so much and have such a twisted concept of what we believe.

Thanks for your post. Oh, and I’m proud of Mitt, too, for holding his head high in the face of all this undeserved abuse.

Maybe Colofornian will express out here (if he has not already) what his religion is so that I can post some scathing criticisms.

I have a friend who is really good at that sort of thing.

He is a golfer, and I did not appreciate it when told me that a bunch of guys wearing funny clothes hitting little balls with metal sticks and then chasing the same balls all over the woods is not much of recreational endeavor when one considers the cost of the materials, equipment, clothes, Greens fees, and more.

Point is, anybody can mock any other if so inclined.

Colofornian is simply impudent FReeper with some agenda who is unlikely at all to ever convince any rational thinking person to consider reflecting on his/her (not their) opinions seriously.
