Most Christians Have No Idea What Mormons Believe [LDS truth claims oft' tucked away by Mormons]

[Colofornian]

I am not a Romney fan, but you answered your own question about why to vote for him. Because of who he is running against.

Not really.

Even under your scenario, no conservative...
...living in a liberal state which Obama will win anyway...
...has ANY reason to vote for Romney.

We live in an electorally decided country -- which decides the presidential election on a state-by-state basis.

#2...When the polls disclose by the end of October which states Romney has locked up...then no FREEPER...
...living in those states has to vote for Romney or Obama...
...And that would seemingly include a state like Tennessee -- where I believe MHGinTN still lives.

Tell us, MHGinTN: How your vote for Romney would make a difference in a state like Tennessee that is not about to vote Obama in? Go, ahead. Wax elequent on that non-starter!

Subtract ALL the FREEPER votes in those given states, it won't take away Romney victories.

That leaves ONLY REAL swing states that leave this dilemma...

Yet for some reason, I don't hear TRUE conservatives applying their practical utilitarian political relativism to the above states. Why not?

[Colofornian]

In light of my last post (#101) -- you're the one who's got some explainin' to do...

YOU know darn well that your vote in TN won't help Romney or harm Obama. Romney's going to win TN -- and Obama's gonna lose Tennessee, anyway -- with or without your vote.

Therefore, your practical utilitarian political relativistic nonsense is just that. Nonsense.

[Colofornian]

People came to the Colonies because they wanted to get away from the religious persecution back in their own country.

(Then tell Romney to stop paying for the following published Mormon nonsense with his $millions donated to the Lds church):

Snapshot of Joseph Smith’s Slanderous Invectives vs. Christian Sects	Mormon Source [Note: Most of these are Mormon ‘scriptures'. In fact, First three rows below are Lds 'scripture' & therefore cannot be rug-swept any more than a Jew might try to take three commandments off of the very tablets of stone Moses brought down from the mountain]
“...which of all the sects was right… must join NONE of them, for they were ALL WRONG<>/u>… those professors were ALL CORRUPT…”	Joseph Smith – History vv. 18-19. – Lds "scripture" Pearl of Great Price
...“which of all the sects was right…ALL their CREEDS were an ABOMINATION in his sight…they teach for doctrines the commandments of MEN…”	Joseph Smith – History vv. 18-19. – Lds "scripture" Pearl of Great Price
Mormon church the only ‘Christ-sanctioned’ church on earth: “…the foundation of this [Mormon] church…the ONLY true and living church on the face of the whole earth” [Obvious ‘scorched earth’ implication: All other churches are false and dead]	Lds “scripture” Doctrines & Covenants 1:30
Direct question asked of Joseph Smith: 'Will everybody be damned, but Mormons?" Answer from Lds "prophet" Joseph Smith: 'Yes, and a great portion of them, unless they repent, and work righteousness."	Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p. 119 [Not “scripture” – but still publicly spoken by the Mormon ‘living prophet’ and published by a later Mormon ‘living prophet,’ Joseph Fielding Smith – via a publisher owned by the Mormon church – Deseret News Press, 1938]
“In 1952…the first official proselyting plan was sent to missionaries throughout the world…It included seven missionary discussions that emphasized…[four topics, one of them being]…THE APOSTASY and Restoration…” [This makes it 60 years that Mormon church missionaries, now numbering 55,000, have formally emphasized in its training & door to door saturation a priority in bashing the worldwide Christian church as “apostates” (100% AWOL)]	Our Heritage: A Brief History of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints p. 116, 1996

I’m sorry to have to point this out to you, but you just made two postes to me verifying your desire to attack Romney, on this thread that you keep trying to claim is only a religion thread in the religon forum. And you’re demanding that I get into a political discussion over whom I will vote for, on this supposedly religion forum thread! I can only hope that the truth of what you’re doing will eventually register with you and we can get back to exposing the vagaries of MormonISM outside of the political arena.

MHG, I've usually found -- and hopefully you're an exception -- that it's the religiosity type that carefully compartmentalize their faith...
...from, say, work...
...their local public square...
...their recreational life...
...their politics...
...you name it...

People who hermetically seal "religion" vs. (________) [fill-in-the-blank] usually haven't learned to apply...
...Biblical worldviews to ALL of life...

They "bottle up" religion into some supposed "neat" corner...and they don't practice it beyond that.

Now, previously, I would have thought you don't fit into this category of religiosity types.

Your post here 'causes me to doubt that assumption. (Perhaps you can clarify)

[MHGinTN]

Your response was about what I expected. And that too is diverting from what the thread was supposedly about. I won’t help you to make it personal so you can dodge the reality. Have a nice day

[Graybeard58]

I lived in a glass house once. I was the King of that house. I kept my throne up in the attic until one day it came crashing through the ceiling.

You know the rest of the story, right?

People who live in glass houses shouldn’t stow thrones.

[Colofornian]

IOW, you do compartmentalize your worldviews and separate politics from your biblical faith?

(Well, I guess that's what happens to new Romney converts...instead of cultural, social and worldview dissidence that we'd expect to find amongst conservatives, we find harmony and convergeance!)

[greyfoxx39]

I won’t help you to make it personal so you can dodge the reality.

Not making it personal, MHG?

Your post #90..."Let's stop parsing this issue, Colo, you are using MormonISM to attack Romney.

[dragonblustar]

Jews don ‘t believe Jesus is God. Gonna try scaring people about them too?

Nice try, but Jews don't believe in Jesus either.

[Colofornian]

I won’t help you to make it personal so you can dodge the reality. [MHGinTN]

Not making it personal, MHG? Your post #90..."Let's stop parsing this issue, Colo, you are using MormonISM to attack Romney. [GF]

Exactly.

I told MHG of the congruence of ops for posting (see post #77).

That wasn't good enough for MHG. He had to make it as personal as possible by continuing to second-guess my motives.

When a person superimposes inward motives -- judges inward motives -- can't get much more personal than that.

[MHGinTN]

You really can’t help yourself I see. Sad that.

Obviously, LDS is polytheistic and quite heretical to orthodox Christianity.

But I do not believe that being LDS, by itself, should be a disqualification for our voting for president.

[Religion Moderator]

All of you: do not make this thread "about" individual Freepers. That is also a form of "making it personal."

Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.

[ejonesie22]

Its not really, but being a backstabbing socialist gives me pause...

Why the devil are you two fighting?

17 It no sooner appeared than I found myself delivered from the enemy which held me bound. When the light rested upon me I saw two Personages, whose brightness and glory defy all description, standing above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other—This is My Beloved Son. Hear Him!

How does one tell if this is TRUE or FALSE??

Now; if a person knows only a little of what the BIBLE teaches, the job will prove to be very difficult,

because having only one side of the story being expounded leaves the teller of the tale at an advantage; doesn’t it?

Here are some basic Scripture to refute MORMONism. (note; I’ve not said ANYTHING about Joseph Smith’s questionable past yet...)

KJV

Galatians 1:6-9

6. I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
7. Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

ANYBODY???

Like this fine looking fellow???

2 Corinthians 11:12-15

12. But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.
13. For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
14. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

Like THESE guys??

Ephesians 2:1-2

1. And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

[Elsie]

America and the world laughed at Baghdad Bob's vain posturings at his 'press conferences', and rightly so, for his 'facts' were so blatently false.

Just like MORMONism's 'facts'.

So why aren't we laughing more?

[Elsie]

"A huge majority of the American public has no idea what Mormons claim to believe.

A huge majority of the World's MORMONs has no idea what mormonISM has written and taught.

We, of the Flying Inmen of FreeRepublic are doing what we can to get the information out.
