It is tolerable on the Religion Forum to say an entire confession is false, a religious figure is false, an author (as long as he is not a Freeper) is a liar and so on.

It is not tolerable to call another Freeper a pejorative, read his mind, attribute motives to him and such - that is what we mean by "making it personal."

Southern Baptist see the mormons as a cult. What can I say. I have to stand up for my beliefs.

You are better off being a Morman, because the liklihood that you will acquire personal vices that shortens your life is reduced, you have a community that cares about you, you acquire self confidence and leadership qualities on your mission, and you gain a network that will assist and encourage you in achieving your goals while on this mortal coil. The downside is possible hubris as to "knowing" more than one can really know, but then, that danger is present in other faiths, when not levened by understanding, and humility, and well, a sense of humor. Over and out.

As a Roman Catholic, I find this thread beneath FreeRepublic and evidence that the Religion Moderator is taking the Religion Forum hermeneutic to a ridiculous extreme.

I ask that this thread be reconsidered and then elminated from cyberspace. The poster may then reflect on a better way to post and engage in a conversation about the faith held by the LDS Mormons.
