Plenty of warnings about not turning this into a religious thread, not withstanding number 170.

Comment #170 Removed by Moderator

What was the comment? Well, we can't see it.

They protest in other states over an Amendment to another state’s constitution? Amazing...

But, I guess this might be ONE way to get them to attend church! Pad the walls, put the preacher behind bullet proof glass with a very strong p.a. system and lock the doors once they are all inside!

Wow, that's quite a claim.

#170 was by me, and contained scriptural references asserting our belief that indeed, Christ was and is the Son of God, contrary to what was being claimed against Mormons.

You had a theory that the deleted posts were one sided and that the AM was, how did you put it, “friendly Mormon Mod to go ballistic on Freepers who didn't tow the LDS line” ...???

Next..

“... pat on the back, and didn’t get it.”

I hereby offer the LDS a pat on the back. They are on our side with this issue and did well.

Thank you.

Homosexuality is both a secular and theological issue, as is marriage. Dodgy history on the matrimony question aside, the Mormons today stand firm on the right.

They have stood up to our secular and theological opposition and emerged victorious, for which they now come under attack.

Would you spit on a soldier returning from battle just because you disagree with his reason for joining the service? Not me. Never.

Well, well, well, I see my posts are now being deleted - and there was no Racism, Violence, Profanity, or Personal Attack.

I am regretting my last PayPal financial contribution to FR already.

I am also a vet, Navy - Desert Storm, but it was an analogy.

As to Mormonism, I think my views are clear. I have a lovely two-ply copy of the BOM alongside the Koran ready for immediate use at any time.

Nonetheless, the Mormon church is on our side with this one. Not only that, but they won! Hallelujah!

No "theory" there. These were Deleted posts that were deleted not for Profanity, Racism, Personal Attacks, or Violence, by only because the Mod didn't like them.

Too bad the below used to be the "rules." Now it is whatever a Mod wishes.

*********************

Didn't the Admin Mod simply say to take a discussion regarding religion to the Religion forum? How is that a problem?

DO NOT DEBATE THEOLOGY ON THIS THREAD.

Be so kind as to point out to me where I did that.

Then maybe it’s safe to say the Gays hate Christianity, but they love Christians.

These LDS-related threads are a hoot: a bunch of people acting indignant about the rules that have been explained to them dozens of times before. LOL

It was landmark U.S. Supreme Court precedent Reynolds v. United States in 1878 that made “separation of church and state” a dubiously legitimate point of case law, but more importantly; it confirmed the Constitutionality in statutory regulation of marriage practices:

“Laws are made for the government of actions, and while they cannot interfere with mere religious belief and opinions, they may with practices…

So here, as a law of the organization of society under the exclusive dominion of the United States, it is provided that plural marriages shall not be allowed.

Can a man excuse his practices to the contrary because of his religious belief? [98 U.S. 145, 167] To permit this would be to make the professed doctrines of religious belief superior to the law of the land, and in effect to permit every citizen to become a law unto himself...”

(see also: United States v. The Late Corp. of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.)

How ironic for these homosexual cultists, who want “separation of church and state,” that the court case they want to base their argument upon was used against the LDS church to justify the statutory regulation of marriage in the United States!
