Certainly Jeff you are entitled to your special beliefs regarding your religion of choice. Please respect the rest of us who do not believe that Free Republic is a Missionary venue for Mormons. I do not come here to do battle with the likes of you or your compatriots but find it very humorous when you all keep it up. And continually in a public forum think it necessary to bear testimony?
Is this a formal missionary calling to come here and do battle? Please be honest.
UB Jeff maybe once a year post over at the RF and then it is about a news item on LDS not doctrine!
Caucus threads are not missionary outreaches; they are closed threads for people of like mind to discuss their beliefs amongst themselves, without being ridiculed.
So when the Catholics here want to discuss some bizarre aspect of their religion, like eating Christ’s body and worrying about dropping crumbs on the floor, they can do so without others making fun of them.
And when Presbyterians want to discuss their strange opinions on God choosing everybody, and all of us being predestined one way or another, they can do so without the free-will’ers laughing at them.
And so on. We all have our particular denominational beliefs, and might well find other beliefs to be bizarre or strange or even blasphemous. But this is a primarily political forum, where we have a common goal of pushing the political conservative movement.
So to the degree we have religious discussions at all, it’s a sidebar to what is advertised as the primary goal of the forum, something that seems to meet the needs of some members for discussing their own peculiar faiths while still being part of the larger whole.
Given the Caucus rules, it would be impossible for your to “battle with the likes” of a relgious group posting caucus threads — no battles are allowed.
