Not a 'nutjob' among 'em!

By “board” do you mean this thread? Or FR? Looking at your posting history, it seems you’re only here to post on LDS-related threads. There’s a lot more to FR than that, maybe you should poke your head out and join the wider community. We bash a lot more than Mormons, maybe you can even join in the fun!
Well I originally found the board because of the conservative political posts I enjoy to read. Then I was sad to discover the religion section was infested by anti-Mormons.
The Religion Forum used to be infested by mormons proselytizing endlessly until they discovered that their lies would not go unanswered. Many of them have moved on to spread their falsehoods elsewhere.
There is still a "conservative" political forum available here..one only needs to avoid posts that are clearly labeled. Unless of course, if one prefers to complain rather than post on the political forum.
“Then I was sad to discover the religion section was infested by anti-Mormons.”
There’s a large range of opinions here on FR, especially on a matter people believe in as passionately as religion. One thing I’ve found is that most of the Christians here can hardly get together on anything. Protestants and Catholics like to snipe at each other, Non-dispensationalists and Dispensationalists like to snipe at each other, etc. When it comes to Mormonism, it seems almost every Christian here can find some agreement. I wonder why that is?
Not a 'nutjob' among 'em!
Even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then.
What do you detect WRONG about the DATA she presents?
Welcome to the REAL world: the one that is ONTO the tactics and errors of The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints.
There is a MORMON-Wiki; so maybe there should be a MormonFreeRepublic: a CAUCUS like place where only 'truth' and 'light' can be discussed.
Because she is a nutcase on a mission?

Hey PD, do you know Sandra? Personally?
She is no nutcase, she is an excellent historian, a wonderful Christian woman and has a wonderful sense of humor.
She is probably the most hated woman in the LDS because she dares to speak the truth, knows mormonism a lot better than almost all members and doesn’t back down.
I used to hate her too, when I was LDS, and believed the lies they told about her. Then I met her and was shocked to find out that the sweet little lady was THE Sandra Tanner, no horns, no tail.
The Bragging of Joseph Smith: Another Look & Biblical Refutation
Speaking of nutcases, meet Kerry Shirts, mormon apologist.....
"I think it is interesting that this is quoted as a put down on Joseph Smith yet Jesus Christ taught something remarkably similar.
John 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also(poiew kakeinoj); and greater works (meizona toutwn) than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
"We see that Jesus’ words mean what he said. His followers are to do greater works than he. This is an astonishing doctrine when we realize that this means man will do greater works than God on earth did! Yet that is what Christ taught. Joseph Smith may not be so much bragging, as merely pointing out some facts which Christ himself said would be. It is a beautiful fulfillment of Jesus’ prophecy seen in this light. And in fact, by implication, if Jesus’ works shows the Father witnesses of him, how much more so does the Father witness of those whose works are not only those of Jesus, but in fact, greater than his, as he taught?"
Not disregarding the nuttiness of a man who would boast, "A large majority of the whole have stood by me. Neither Paul, John, Peter, nor Jesus ever did it. I boast that no man ever did such a work as I. The followers of Jesus ran away from Him; but the Latter-day Saints never ran away from me yet . . . " (History of the Church, Vol. 6, p. 408-409).
Needed to "dust off" unbelievers, I bet.

Who said I hated her? I leave that to the anti-Mormon gang and their ilk.
I read the Tanner stuff when I was investigating the church. I eventually discovered it to be hateful garbage spewed by people on a mission to make themselves feel better about their decisions turning into a total obsession. Nothing more. (gosh that sounds familiar hmmmm)
I feel sorry for her. There’s still time though.
Uh; your WORDS tended to INDICATE something like that...
That seems harsh!
Was it TRUTHFUL or NOT?
Got any EVIDENCE of this stuff you'd like to share?
"Momma; I've learned that PRESBYTERIANs spew hateful garbage."
Got any EVIDENCE of this stuff you’d like to share?
How many times do I have to post it? Stay tuned, I’m sure I’ll link it again in the next anti-Mormon propaganda laden thread.
You POST nothing; other than to say...
"Run over there and look in THAT haystack."
Your 'help' is useless.
