Well, let's apply your own "First Principles" to your questions:
Why do YOU care what I believe about what Mormons believe? Am I harming you in any way at all?
(ALL: You see the lack of consistency by even so-called conservative posters these days?)
The "Mantra" uttered is two-fold: If somebody isn't harming you personally, why critique them?
(All as they critique others -- posters on this thread, for example -- who aren't harming them!)
Yet they fail to apply their own operating Principles to themselves!
If, as Lizavetta implies, we aren't to care about the details of other religion's beliefs, then why bother to care about what posters say in their commentary details about these beliefs?
If we take Lizavetta's advice, we are to simply ignore most religious expressions (in this case, most of the Mormon doctrinal expressions).
Yet she/he can't see to ignore our religious expressions about the Mormon beliefs on this thread?
Tell us, Lizavetta: Why is Mormon doctrine ignore-worthy, but apparently our comments about Mormon doctrine isn't ignore-worthy?...and, in fact, you're paying a fair amount of attention to them?
(Can you spell h-y-p-o-c-r-i-s-y re: practicing the mantras you preach?)
No one is saying you may not post an opinion about Mormonism or should not or can not. Fly at it. I am questioning your vitriol about their beliefs. Key word question. Why does what they believe bother you?
