"I am a true believer in the gospel of Jesus Christ, I do not believe everything that is now being taught and practiced by Brigham Young.
I do not care who hears it. It is my last word - it is so.
I believe he is leading the people astray, downward to destruction.
But I believe in the gospel that was taught in its purity by Joseph Smith, in former days.
I have my reasons for it.
"I studied to make this man's [Brigham Young] will my pleasure for thirty years.
See, now, what I have come to this day!
"I have been sacrificed in a cowardly, dastardly manner." (Lee enunciated this sentence with marked emphasis.)

Somebody has to use your library...you definitely don’t...!!!
Tsk tsk...
I'd be ashamed to admit that I'd been posting all these years and not paying attention.
I worry that the Dems will make mincemeat of Mitt, ridiculing all the things that strike many as odd about the Mormon beliefs. While many worry that conservative Christians on the Republican side may not vote for Mitt because of his views, I think the issues will be much bigger in the fall, with millions of Democrats openly savaging him.
“We have a Muslim, a Catholic, and a Mormon. That’s all I’m gonna say...”
What an odd post. Who has them? Are you talking about presidential canidates? It’s an anomymous message board. Why is that all you are gonna say...? And by the by, if you do happen to be talking about presidential canidates, there are actually two Catholics. Does that make it worse?

This keeps being said, but it just is not true. Has Romney been an Area President? Has he been in one of the Quorum of the Seventy? If not, then no, he is not as high as one can go before being in the "12".
According to one of the Noahide Rabbis, I should pray for your strength and peace and that your anti-Christian animosity is not common nor is it encouraged, it is just sign of your own weakness.
So I will take his advise.
You mean, like, had a war?
A war against the United States? The Mormon War/Utah War? From 1857 to 1858? An armed rebellion? Where there wasn't a lot of shooting going on, and it was pretty much a standoff (except for those 120+ civilian men, women, and children murdered on September 11, 1857, and the six civilians murdered at the Aiken Massacre the following month - I don't count the people killed by the Northern Paiute at Fort Lemhi as part of the war).
That kind of butting heads against the U.S. Government?
Ummmm. Yes, speaking historically, it has.
Using your logic, I will also pray that I can handle your anti-Noahide positions.
I don’t have any but looks like the Rabbi was correct. I’ll let him know.
Teacher to college class: "After reading this list who still wants to vote for Romney?"
#11 Mitt Romney has been a huge supporter of gun control laws.
#12 Mitt Romney once claimed that he was more "pro-choice" than Ted Kennedy, but now he claims that he is pro-life.
#13 During this campaign season, Mitt Romney has stated that he only supports partnership agreements for gay couples and not gay marriage,
#14 As late as 2007, Mitt Romney was a member of the Republican Main Street Partnership. The following is what romneyexposed.com says about this organization....
#15 According to the Huffington Post, Mitt Romney has raised more money from lobbyists than all of the other Republican candidates combined.
#16 Mitt Romney is a big time Wall Street insider. It is estimated that Romney has a personal fortune of approximately a quarter of a billion dollars, and Wall Street money is being absolutely showered on his campaign.
And then there is this -- Romney is a member of a non-Christian cult, Mormonism:

There seems to be a lot of ‘de nile’ going on; voters WILL weigh the heretical _____ drek in Mormonism and hold it against Milt. The democrat political machine knows precisely how to exploit that, too, and have a sycophantic media _______ female dog minds to pound the blasphemies daily (though not one of the scum will have any actual objection to any of the blasphemies because the media are dead souls and could care less that Mormonism is an insult to Christ). Yet the stupid, go-along-to-get-along Congressional majority (read, what Mark Levin calls them) establishment continues to try and stuff the loser down our collective throats. I’d say it’s time for something to replace the feckless idiotic republican establishment.

Mitt should 'worry' about the MORMON things that will prove it to be a HERESY; not just 'odd'!
When voters realize THAT; well....
WHAT!!??
Now we gots RABBIs for GENTILES???
I is SO cornfused!
She's the perfect Republican conservative candidate and If it goes to being a "brokered" convention, it's my hope that Sarah steps up.
As “goofy” as Mormon theology is it will not cause Romney to hurt the American people. Most Mormons are pretty good citizens, follow the Protestant ethic and try to be honest.
- - - -
Actually, it will and sadly they are not ‘good citizens’ who try to be honest. Been there, done that.
Try living in Utah and you will see what Mormonism REALLY is.
Have Mitt Romney’s mormon beliefs ever negatively impacted anything he’s ever accompished or promoted?
- - - -
Yes. It is the basis for most of his political views. Abortion, healthcare, illegals, homosexuality...all of it has basis in LDS beliefs and policies.
Aside from that, he took a blood oath to put the LDS church (not God, not Christ) above all and to use everything he has for the furthering of the Mormon church. The LDS leadership will hold him to that, just like they did Bob Bennett, Orin Hatch and Harry Reid who all passed or supported earmarks or legislation because their LDS leaders told them to. Bob Bennett admits that.
The more I read about Noahides, the more they look like a pseudo-Jewish cult. Freaky stuff. And seriously, why not just go all the way and convert to Judaism. Seems like they are taking the easy way out.
You are correct there is some weird stuff out there.
The Noahide Rabbi I talked is a very nice man, explained that many Noahides are self proclaimed former Christians and to convert means they have given up their former selves, and their animosity towards Christians is a result.
Makes sense I guess.
He also said these feelings are not encouraged or taught.
That the person should be prayed for to increase their strength and peace.
I do understand the question, why not become a Jew.
Maybe I should ask him.
