On all threads, but particularly “open” threads, posters must never “make it personal.” Reading minds and attributing motives are forms of “making it personal.” Making a thread “about” another Freeper is “making it personal.”
When in doubt, review your use of the pronoun “you” before hitting “enter.”
Like the Smoky Backroom, the conversation may be offensive to some.
Thin-skinned posters will be booted from “open” threads because in the town square, they are the disrupters.

Thin-skinned (emotional, whiney or mercurial temper) posters are the disruptors on open threads.

“so why are the lds going to be doing missionary work and temple rituals?”
There are just two things the cult of LSD (mormons) teach:
1. missionary work and temple rituals?
2. becoming a god and celestial breeding with a goddess
Since it’s on Earth, it’s #1
Even better..."The Prophet Joseph Smith taught that during the Millennium, “the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisiacal glory”.
Poor mormons have to work even when they have reached "paradisiacal glory".....I'm wondering if the missions will last two years like they do now, or if they will have to spend the whole 1000 years knocking on the doors in Paradise??? Also since "The earth will be changed into a celestial kingdom." does that mean that everyone that is still there after the great war is automatically one of the chosen? Boggles the mind to think of the temples going full blast with proxy work during the milennium, doesn't it?
Because of the destruction of the wicked at the Savior’s Second Coming, only righteous people will live on the earth at the beginning of the Millennium. They will be those who have lived virtuous and honest lives.
...
People will still have their agency, and for a time many will be free to continue with their religions and ideas. Eventually everyone will confess that Jesus Christ is the Savior.
Besides which, how could other religions exist in the Kingdom of God? If you read scripture, it’s clear that only Christians can be alive during this time:
Revelaton 20:4-5
4And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
Also, how could people “continue to have children as we do now”? That’s in direct contradiction with this:
Matthew 22:30
“For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.”
Are the mormons teaching that extramarital sex will be condoned in the Kingdom?
There is very little in the way of logic attached to mormonism. That’s one reason I left it.
I think I’ll take my chances on any and all of this. At least during this lifetime I can dis-observe the word of wisdom and stop wearing goofy underwear. In the big picture of things I am proud to finally be rid of the guilt that was put on me by the morg. The guilt trip is a control trip.
I’m over it. Also don’t have to properly pronounce paradisiacal.
That is why coffee man that I celebrate the FREEDOM that comes with Jesus Christ.
:)
“At least during this lifetime I can dis-observe the word of wisdom and stop wearing goofy underwear.”
Well, according to what this is saying, even if they are right, as long as you live a decent life, you’ll get to the Millenium, and then you’re guaranteed to eventually convert to the “true faith” anyways. So I guess, as long as you’re not a real bastard, there’s no point in worrying about it right now.
“There is very little in the way of logic attached to mormonism. That’s one reason I left it.”
Yeah, I guess I kind of already knew that, but it seems everytime I peruse one of these threads, I continue to be amazed by the contradictions. I hope you’ve been able to find happiness outside of this group. Do you have family members that are still members, and if so, do they still associate with you?
You have hit the nail on the head my friend. My energy goes out in a very different direction now that I am free. I feel sorry for the poor family members and friends that are still trapped in their guilt.
And yes, I might be a bastard but not a dumb bastard.
I found this at
Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints expect Zion to be established in Missouri, which will be called New Jerusalem during the Millennium. The United Order will be practiced in Zion and will be the economy of Christ everywhere on earth during the Millennium.
I’ve never been a mormon cult member, but it looks
accurate....
2 things
Thanks for the great lesson!
and
Sandra Tanner? ROFL
There will be two great works for members of the Church during the Millennium: temple work and missionary work.
