And by the way, I'm an atheist so you're description of us as a whole just doesn't fit. But I don't criticize those that want to put god first before other things. It's people like you that profess 'your god and your way of thinking is the only real god'. Go put your magic underwear on and go pray for yourself. And by the way, why won't you let anyone but your own people in your temple? Are you a racist? Or do you and your religion just discriminate against those who don't think exactly like you do. I guess there's an imaginary border line at the entrance of your temple. Talk about discrimination, your church practices it to the max. Last edited by Jeanfromfillmore; 01-29-2010 at 04:54 PM. |

Several things, Ted:
I have an understanding about Joseph Smith's beliefs concerning blacks. I'm part Indian. My significant other is first generation born in America with Mexican ancestry. I'm agnostic. You came here to bait us, just like the diminutive troll who shows up at our rallies with a camcorder, and you did get some goat. Keller's words were twisted according to a now five decade old formula to divert attention from the real issue, plain and simple. You made the same play here. Actually, I believe you are more likely to be an underemployed, born in America pretend Mexican with some time in an ethnic studies class. Pocho activist and Mexican campesino? Oil and water, with the main connection being the thought of using one another to a self centered end.

Mormons' Prop. 8 aid protested Gay-rights activists criticize the church for its role in helping to pass California's ban on same-sex marriage. November 07, 2008|Jessica Garrison and Joanna Lin, Garrison and Lin are Times staff writers. Barbara Davidson / Los Angeles Times More than a thousand gay-rights activists gathered Thursday afternoon outside the Mormon temple in Westwood to protest the role Mormons played in passing Proposition 8, which banned same-sex marriage in California. It was the latest in an escalating campaign directed against the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for its role in marshaling millions of dollars in contributions from its members for the successful campaign to take away same-sex marriage rights. Members of the Mormon church, who were strongly urged by church leaders to contribute to the Proposition 8 campaign, had an undeniable role in the measure's victory. Opponents of Proposition 8 have accused the church of discriminating against homosexuals, but the backlash against the denomination has also sparked accusations of discrimination. During the campaign, a website established by Proposition 8 opponents used campaign finance data and other public records to track Mormon political contributions to the Yes-on-8 campaign. Opponents estimated that members of the church had given more than $20 million, but the amount is difficult to confirm since the state does not track the religious affiliation of donor. Critics of the website noted that the religious affiliations of other political donors are not generally researched. A commercial opposing Proposition 8 also drew criticism. In it, two actors portraying Mormon missionaries forced their way into the well-kept home of a married lesbian couple. "Hi, we're here from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints," one says. "We're here to take away your rights," says his partner. The missionaries then rip the wedding rings from the women's fingers and ransack their house until they find the women's marriage license, which they destroy. "Hey, we have rights," one of the women says. "Not if we can help it," answers the missionary. The ad was produced by an independent group not affiliated with the official No-on-8 campaign and was shown on MSNBC and Comedy Central, according to Rick Jacobs of the Courage Campaign, a progressive political group. Jeff Flint, strategist for Yes on 8, called the ad "despicable" and said it "crossed every line of decency." "I am appalled at the level of Mormon-bashing that went on during the Proposition 8 campaign and continues to this day," he said. "If this activity were directed against any other church, if someone put up a website that targeted Jews or Catholics in a similar fashion for the mere act of participating in a political campaign, it would be widely and rightfully condemned."

You have to read what he's saying.
The guy's not pushing Mormonism. Here's the bait that equates US with his interpretation of Mormons, throws in the continent without borders BS, while suggesting that we are white supremacists: Quote:

Somewhere, whoever wrote this is laughing his ass off because it was so easy to get angry responses putting down Mormans just as he did - essentially agreeing with him and suggesting the material wasn't fully read and comprehended leading to knee jerk responses which can be exploited. I believe the guy isn't what he claims to be, he possibly got his material from a book suggesting that everything in America today was accomplished through centuries of white racism. I forget the name of the book - I read it some years ago. There is always print to be had authored by lunatic brown racists which sounds similar to the rhetoric. If anyone writes similar posts, think of Naui with a keyboard rather than a camcorder. It's the same exact thing - except you can't see the little gnat. And think back about DEE DEE and her religion thread. She cut and pasted mass commentary to her Latino Republic site and laughed loudly with her following about how she sandbagged the posters and how could they possibly be Christians. It's a sort of two for the price of one crap.

This person isn't coming back, so my advice would be to just let this thread die. Goons are fun to play with, but only if they stick around. This one won't.

I didn't come back because your moderators obviously understand that you can't handle real dialog around here. they moved my "horrible and controversial post" to the "restricted area"... LOL!!! I just figured out where they put my post... you poor people. That's fine, it's your stupid bulletin board. Most people lacking culture need to be in their own little boxes to feel better about what they believe. Like Mormonism.
Mormonism is a product of blind, blatant, racist, American stupidity, btw. did I mention that? Thanks for your time, Theo Hirsch |

This guy is the only person so far that i have read that was smart enough to figure out that I'm not pushing Mormonism. Of course, his blatant idiotic, assumtions about who I am and why I am here tells me volumes.
You people are fighting the wrong! and I am getting sick of stupid, ignorant Americans with no understanding of the bigger picture. You people need serious culture. Quote:

You obviously didn't read close enough to figure that I no longer adhere to Mormon beliefs or principles. Not to mention, the Main stream Mormon church (the one I was raised in) no longer practices polygamy and only practices it in the very depth of their doctrine, hiding the majority of its history from it newest members, sweeping much under the rug..
I am what people refer to as "exmormon" We must disregard all of what you have to say by your obvious ignorance. Try again Quote:
