Ping for later.....
The bit at the end is a pathetic dodge under the cover of vestigial Mormon loyalty — “Dig through any church’s history and you’ll find lies, scandals and coverups.”
The written word from the profits as recorded in the Bible is entirely free of lies. This reference to “lies and scandals” no bearing on the testimony of biblical profits. The walk and works of Mormon profits is an unavoidable shambles, however.

U. of Utah president: Mormons should join ACLU
"We all ought to be members of the ACLU," said Michael Young, a Latter-day Saint and a descendant of Utah colonizer Brigham Young, in a question-and-answer session after addressing the LDS International Society at Brigham Young University during a conference on the erosion of religious liberties.
“Prophets”
Ironically, I think he was partially correct
Get a life. This is a political not a religious forum. Some free advice: if you nevertheless feel an overwhelming urge to post something containing slander, try and delay the fulfillment of your desire until you are able locate some kind of for it source (not one of the three points of alleged lying has any kind of documentation or source)for your breaking news…btw, President Hinckley died three years ago….
What are you talking about? This is the Religion forum! This is the perfect place to put this thread.
Now you are claiming the posted article is slander?! So you deny the 3 examples that were posted? If someone does provide sources, will you retract your statement that it is slander?
If you do not wish to see RF posts, do NOT use the "everything" option on the browse. Instead, browse by "News/Activism." When you log back in, the browse will reset to "everything" - so be sure to set it back to "News/Activism."
Sure, be happy to.
Just curious. Are you saying that the poster didn't provide documentation or a source, or are you saying that there IS no documentation or source for any of the poster's statements and that none of them, therefore, are true statements?
If one wants to engage in pure polemic religious debate there are plenty of pure religion forums for those with that inclination.
My suspicion on the wide majority of religious polemic that gets posted on Free Republic is not that people want to engage in a pursuit of truth...they are mostly recycled ideas...this story is what 3 years old? But rather that people do it fulfill their base desire to slander another religion (and again I will repeat the point that I made in my original post: that Free Republic is not the place for fulfill one's urge to slander another religion).
I’m say both

Understood. You have an absolute right to your faith and testimony.
Are you familiar with the term "faith-promoting history," introduced in 1991 by now President of the Quorum of Twelve Apostles Boyd K. Packer?
I will be away from the computer for several hours.
Thank You, but my reply was a request for neither faith or testimony...is was for fact. This is a conservative political forum...where is the tie-in to political conservativism in this post? If one can’t help themselves but to post random (unrelated to any current event) self promoting slander at least have the courtesy to provide a source of the slander.
