The Rogue Yam FReeper Hater Club of One spends all his time hating on FReepers that won't cow to his bullying instead of trying the simple tactic of posting information rebutting posts that include actual actions of Mitt Romney and actual doctrine of the mormon church.
Nothing would make the FReeper Hater Club of One happier than for him to have the power to banish all those who refuse to kiss his "choose the right" ring.
This he does in the name of "true conservatism".
It would be hard to point to a more clearly distilled example of "projection" than this.
There is no rebuttal. This is the fear vote on steroids.
These have been with us always. Some wanted to cling to Britain at the Revolution, some wanted to duck out on Britain against Hitler, preferring no resistance if any cost would be attached, as there always is to anything meaningful.
From the comments I have seen from RYam lately, he is anything but a ‘true conservative’.
True conservatives do not support those who are pro abortion, pro gay marriage and pro mandate.
The GOP has proven they don’t care about this country by throwing up Mitt in an election that we should have been able to win easily.
Nah...
Choose The Prophet!!!
In conclusion let us summarize this grand key, these “Fourteen Fundamentals in Following the Prophet”, for our salvation depends on them.
1. The prophet is the only man who speaks for the Lord in everything.
2. The living prophet is more vital to us than the standard works.
3. The living prophet is more important to us than a dead prophet.
4. The prophet will never lead the church astray.
5. The prophet is not required to have any particular earthly training or credentials to speak on any subject or act on any matter at any time.
6. The prophet does not have to say “Thus Saith the Lord,” to give us scripture.
7. The prophet tells us what we need to know, not always what we want to know.
8. The prophet is not limited by men’s reasoning.
9. The prophet can receive revelation on any matter, temporal or spiritual.
10. The prophet may advise on civic matters.
11. The two groups who have the greatest difficulty in following the prophet are the proud who are learned and the proud who are rich.
12. The prophet will not necessarily be popular with the world or the worldly.
13. The prophet and his counselors make up the First Presidency—the highest quorum in the Church.
14. The prophet and the presidency—the living prophet and the First Presidency—follow them and be blessed—reject them and suffer.
I testify that these fourteen fundamentals in following the living prophet are true. If we want to know how well we stand with the Lord then let us ask ourselves how well we stand with His mortal captain—how close do our lives harmonize with the Lord’s anointed—the living Prophet—President of the Church, and with the Quorum of the First Presidency.
