Excuse me, the incident was in 1999. I was shooting from memory.

conservatives ???

But your Romney assured us that not all mormns were conservatives...

he emphatically stated several times that several vote Democrat and are liberals and pro-abortion like him...

Meanwhile this is the Religion Forum...

Politics are discussed elsewhere ...

One tracked mind ???

Yes I would hope and pray so...

Jesus would not have me been anything else...

Christians are to have one track minds...

and not be double minded...

A doubleminded man is unstable in all his ways James 1:8

Have a sound mind 2 Timothy 1:7

have the mind of Christ (and who more one track mined than Him) 1 Corinthians 2:16

See how when you start out saying things meant for evil against me, God turns it around for my good ???

Now those there Bible scriptures edified me...

one tracked mind...

yeppers thats me...

just as God wants me to be...

:)

RE:”Just another case of Mormonism ‘lying for the Lord....”

All faiths have their charlatans. Seems as though I recall a one Jim Bakker who found his new wife in a dipsy dumpster soon after his release from Fed. Pen. Guess she was looking for all those prayer requests from dying people that had been opened only to remove the $.

And Jimmy Swaggart, simply cruising for hookers. Guess he wanted to “re-hab” them?

List goes on and on. Stealing for Jesus cuts all faiths. One of the worst forms of “lying for the Lord.”

Why should they? That’s like demanding white people today apologize because some white people in the past held blacks as slaves.

I’m not in favor of modern day people apologizing for stuff other people did in the past. It’s just plain silly.

So you agree that it’s ok to kill men, women and children because you’re pissed at the federal government?

So the mormons harrass me at my door and tell me I am going to hell just because they know I am a Christian. ???

are you saying my religious preference is important to them and that they dont bother with people who answer Hindu or Athiest ???

The man needed prayer...

If he was a mormon, I would still have prayed for him...

I just laid my anointed hands on his head and claimed healing in his body in the Name of Jesus...

I would do the same with one of the mormons who have AIDS...

how about you ???

Do you pray for sick mormons ???

"Minor" difference here. While many faiths have Charlatans who act in their name such Bakker, Hinn Tilton and such, Mormonism was created as a scam BY a charlatan.

It is a faith created from whole cloth that steals from true Christianity, distorts its message, claims to be the "true and improved" version of same while if recreates something almost unrecognizable all for the love of money.

I am glad you are having fun, you must be bored to waste what little time you obviously spend on FR playing games and dealing with something you seem to have little real interest in.

The president and prophet summed it up perfectly in the article: “President Smith spoke briefly,” the Deseret News account summarized, “and expressed the idea that the question of the city (of Zarahemla) was one of interest certainly, but if it could not be located the matter was not of vital importance, and if there were differences of opinion on the question it would not affect the salvation of the people; and he advised against students considering it of such vital importance as the principles of the Gospel.”

Personally I think it will eventually be shown that central America is where it all took place. /shrug But it really doesn’t matter on tiny bit.

If Mormons, or anyone else are harassing you at your door, I’d suggest buying a Doberman. Or a Kalashnikov. Or closing the door....
You do good works. You are a good person. Unstable. But many good people are.
Actually, I read these “religious posts” for their historical value. I avoid religious discussions. They go no where but sideways. Like a hog on ice. In about 15 years of posting on FR, this is probably the 2nd religious post I’ve actually commented on. Today only to state in fact Mormons HAD apologized. And that post was directed to another poster when you chaimed-in. And began jactitating like a gut-shot dog.
Who I pray for is my business.

If the “eternal law of progression” is true, then why was Moroni still an angel?

Calling another Freeper a liar is a form of "making it personal" because it attributes to him the intent to deceive.

Words such as "false" "wrong" "error" "misleading" do not attribute motive and therefore are not "making it personal."

Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.

So truth is not important to Mormons.

I think we get that after 180 years, but thanks for the verification.

Again....

Actually, my first post to #7 was simply to state a fact. I did. Others took me to task for it. I responded.

Seems odd, does it not? Some appear clairvoyant in knowing the apology was “spin control.” “Insincere.” etc.

Others answer posts to me as I answer theirs...

I dont condemn them for doing so...

You were the one who initiated the CONVERSATION by answering me...

one post is just a comment...an answer back makes a conversation...

If you are so biased and bigoted against Christians why are you bothering to hang around a thread posted by a CHRISTIAN...

It’s making blatantly false statements-like Mormons deny access to the site to descendants of the massacre-that make me uneasy.
