you might not have been clear, but in re-reading I probably didn’t read too clear either. No worries.
Oh but he has no regrets about the white folk Mountain Meadows massacre by Brigham Young.
This is something you’d expect from a left-wing nutter.
Can’t say I’m too surprised though, a lot of these guys go off the rails. My theory is they get friendly with all the lib scum in Washington and being weak minded they then get infected with liberalism through this social contact. It’s like peer pressure, high school. Then when they don’t have to worry about elections anymore they stop holding back.
I’d advise Republican officeholders and staffers to never socialize with democrats, they are the enemy. You negotiate with them when you have to but as an enemy. No more golfing, more martini lunches.
I'm aware of that - but the story seemed to spend a bit of time about his Muslim apologist activities. Just as I hate to see a POS honored and feted for his "greatness" after he dies, I also have problems with the mindset that makes one want to crap on one's grave.
To liberals like Bennett, party is religion.
Best to say all that when one is still alive - crapping on his grave serves no decent purpose - just as honoring a POS after his/her death is a travesty, this is just a classless act.
I get it - but it seems as useful as honoring a POS to be "polite" after his/her death. People will do what people will do - it's just irksome when they differ from what I would do - my problem.
"It is appointed unto men once to die; and after this the judgement."
Hebrews 9:27
Mormonism says: WAIT!!
We are going to have proxy baptisms for those who didn't choose while here on Earth.
They'll get ANOTHER chance because WE are so faithful in following what GOD has told us to do.
SOMEbody has!!!
"I am a true believer in the gospel of Jesus Christ, I do not believe everything that is now being taught and practiced by Brigham Young.
I do not care who hears it. It is my last word - it is so.
I believe he is leading the people astray, downward to destruction.
But I believe in the gospel that was taught in its purity by Joseph Smith, in former days.
I have my reasons for it.
"I studied to make this man's [Brigham Young] will my pleasure for thirty years.
See, now, what I have come to this day!
"I have been sacrificed in a cowardly, dastardly manner." (Lee enunciated this sentence with marked emphasis.)

A Christian 'nutter' might jump up and shout:
To which Harold Brigham Lee would state:
We do NOT teach that!!
Unless it's BHitler, or PolPot or Stalin...
I' am in 100% agreement with you here!
;^(
BS..... the fact a man is dead does not raise him above criticism. condemnation should continue for ever.
Dementia kicks in.
And his wife and son go to a far left site The Daily Beast to crow about it.
It is they who are using Bennett to beat Trump and those of us who agree with him over the head with a dead man's body.
Truly low.
Maybe Mrs. Bennett should wear a burkha.
You know, show some solidarity and empathy.
Fools.
Yes - for the truly evil folks, I make no apologies - the misguided, like the dead senator, are in a different category.
There may be something to this.
There may be something to this.
Because it's so therapeutic for the emotional cripples to have a misguided senator to kick around for the next eternity - makes perfect sense if one happens to be an emotional cripple who needs something to obsess over.
We need to remember the truly evil and pas on that info, not some irrelevant senator who lost his way.
Unless, of course, we happen to be in that needy, emotional cripple status.....
Now, if I were to decide to rail on about how I think you are an emotional cripple and how you speak out against what I think is not normal and right, and to do so daily for the next 30 years, you'd call me a nut case......think about it. How important will that dead senator's opinions and attitudes be next week? If you think you need to condemn him for eternity, have at it - let us know how satisfying it is/was.
The man was a Mormon; and; evidently; a devouted one.
He would have wholeheartedly embraced the sentiments found in reply #76.
Or else!
This is the audio clip of Dallin H. Oaks, current Mormon Apostle leader, from the PBS documentary, "The Mormons", declaring unequivocally:
"IT'S WRONG TO CRITICIZE LEADERS OF THE (MORMON) CHURCH, EVEN IF THE CRITICISM IS TRUE."Don't criticize?
