(Teppe, poor assumption...though I am a descendent of an Lds polygamist leader in the church, I was NEVER a Mormon member...but what does that matter? Lds accuse ALL Christians of being "apostates" and descendents of "apostates" -- just like the Muslims accuse us of being "infidels"...[note the company you keep...Muslims say an "angel" appeared to Muhammad...and that Muhammad was even MORE like Joseph Smith's line of a poor, uneducated country boy...I mean Muhammad was illiterate!!!]
So, I appreciate the Mormon "apostate" accusation "show" you put on for all readers, lurkers, and FReepers! (I couldn't have scheduled a more timely appearance & comments:) So thanks!
My apologies, at my poor choice of a joke. It was my understanding that much of your motivation for bringing up irrelevant news stories, such as the one in the beginning of this thread, was fueled by a personal feud from being a previous member.
But as I understand it .... you feel angry because I poked fun at you in a critisizing way??? Isn’t that pretty much what you were doing when you posted the leading article??
So, in otherwords ... it’s alright for you to attack other religous peoples motives for your entertainment ..... but it’s not OK for them to do that to you??
hmmm ......
Maybe if you don
...one other thought, if your “polygamist” ancestor is so odious to you .... than why would you belong to a religion which worships the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (two of the three are known polygamists).
Also, your comments were disingenuous, please show me where the LDS church accuses ALL Christians of being apostates? Did I miss that in Sunday School class?
