No mystery; revisionist history.

Same thing with multiple versions of the First Vision, Mark Hoffman and the items he sold to the LDS Church leadership as authentic. The missing DNA evidence of the BOM people...the horses, the steel, the massive battlefields in NY by the Hill Cumorah.

What Packer actually said and the transcript will probably differ, but who knows as he seems unashamed of his hatred; I guess by their fruits you shall know them.

Wow, it has been a while since I have seen a photo of Boyd; I guess the Word of Wisdom doesn’t apply there, right?

i.e. eat meat sparely, exercise, etc.

“I was kind’ve spoofin’ the protest in a way that says there aren’t too many religions in the world who embrace the gay life”

I don’t believe there is any religion of any decent size or impact in the history of mankind that endorses homosexuality.

They should really protest in front of mosques, if they want to protest hypocrites.

The Muslims are basically a NAMBLA, with their tribal leaders molesting little boys with sanction from their mullahs.

In a related story, a group of murderers picketed the Mormon church the following day to protest the Church's teaching that the murders they commit are sinful.

Say what you want about the Mormons. They’re 100% right on this one.

So preaching against having homosexual sex “hurts people”...but preaching in favor of anal sex doesn't?

Good grief, this liberal propaganda is so prominent in the schools, on TV, movies, etc...it is now convincing 12 and 13 year olds that they must commit suicide because they think they are “gay” and getting teased about it in grade school. Homosexual suicide rates are getting worse worldwide.

Enough!

I believe you’re right. Christians are to love the person, but not the lifestyle. Jews are to understand and accept the differences and encourage a career in the arts. Hindus probably ignore it trying not to step on a bug that would be someones uncle. Buddhists are nihilistic by doctrine (achieving nothingness) which leaves us with the Muslims who, in some tribal cultures, apparently practice it, but hate themselves for it. It really does suck to be a Wahabbi or Shia. Screwed on so many levels. It’s hard to know where to start.

No. Hindus believe that homosexuality is an abomination. There are Hindus on FR.

After all those years of Brigham Young and his denouncation of monogamy as “prostitution” and the later mormon presidents saying much the same thing, the mormons are now in a situation where they are hypocrites for attacking the homosexuals, so the homosexuals are not letting them forget it...

While I'm not defending polygamy, I don't see how one could put that lifestyle on the same plain as that of homosexuality.

Have millions of polygamists died from various diseases that run rampant throughout the homosexual "deathstyle"?

Remember, the Mormon's (while it isn't a correct interpretation) use Scripture as guidance through their lives.

The only "scripture" homosexuals use is "if it feels good do it" Libertarian moral relativism. The Mormon's were viciously attacked by the sodomites during (and after) Prop 8. No other Christian denomination or religion can state that claim.

Regarding your claim that other denominations were't attacked because they weren't hypocritical in their doctrine: The sodomites don't care about themselves, let alone if some Christian denomination is "hypocritical". They live a hedonistic, nihilistic, narcisstic lifestyle.

Because their actions are not perceived by the homsexuals to be as hypocritical...

Please, you can't believe that. The Mormon church is being targeted because they gave more money than any other religious organization to get Prop 8 passed.

These protests are about forcing homosexuality on those that refuse to believe it is fine and dandy.

He did...

God managed to “put that lifestyle (polygamy) on the same plain as that of homosexuality”

He told us not to do either...

Both to Him are sinful...

Not necessarily...

But imagine what would have happened if the mormons had given all that money to get McCain/Palin elected like Christians did...

Instead of running off to CA because one of their own, Romney was not the GOP nominee...

I wonder how they will act in 2012 when Romney is not the nominee again...

Look for more “busy work” ???

Thanks for the link — interesting discourse.

The story about voting to determine the gender of a kitten was great! That might be the thing that set off the gays, because I didn’t notice the words gay or homosexual in the speech. But then, what does’t set gay rights groups off? As a group, they seem pretty thinned skinned, although the gays I know seem pretty laid back.

Abram, there are links to the speech transcript on this thread, plus video of the speech at the linked web site. I used the link and read the speech, and didn’t find any hate. Just good coaching for a happy life. Peace.

Why don't a few hundred Mormons got down to a Quaker Meeting House and push for retired military leaders to be Quaker 'leaders'... Call the press - some of them might be smart enough to 'get it'. Then again, maybe I'm being optimistic.

There are many things God told us not to do; however, not all sins are equal. For instance, He didn't describe polygamy as an "abomination" or "detestable" (on a side note: the predominately Christian Founding Fathers described homosexuality as "a disgrace to human nature" and had laws with SEVERE punishment for it), nor did God urge that the death penalty be given to polygamists.
Link to Death Penalty for Homosexuals

Again, while multiple wives is a sin and harmful to the family unit, the act itself is not unnatural as is homosexuality.
