I guess that's Romney's problem. He needs to start burning flags and call for Jihad and the press with trip over themselves falling in love with him. Chris Matthews might get that tingle back in his leg again.

Meanwhile, Harry Reid counts his cash.

Do you have any adult response to post 40?

It was a straight forward statement of fact, do you have anything other than an emotional response to it?

It's been 3 hours.

If he'd had anything, I think it would have appeared by now.

Validity or veracity was not the issue. Reread the post I was responding to, particularly the quoted material she was responding to herself, and you’ll see where I was coming from. Notice there was no response? That’s because she was trying to tar an entire religion and its present followers by implication and utterly without justification. I was just giving her an opportunity to expose herself by bringing up the one event the Mormon haters always do, even though it happened more than 150 years ago (and as far as anybody knows, it wasn’t because people were “making fun” of” Mormonism). Contrast that record with the conduct of modern adherants to Islam and you the two religions are entirely different animals.

Nana; exposing herself?

She needs no opportunity to be presented, as she can find false teachings all by herself.


"Now if any of you will deny the plurality of wives, and continue to do so, I promise that you will be damned;

and I will go still further and say, take this revelation, or any other revelation that the Lord has given,

and deny it in your feelings, and I promise that you will be damned.

Brigham Young - JoD 3:266 (July 14, 1855)

Oh?

You mean what was shown in post #43?
