“Except if they are LDS religious reasons. I would have the same objection to restrictions for religious reasons by ANY religion,...”
Then excuse me. You may be more of an equal-opportunity religious bigot than merely an anti-LDS religious bigot. It can all be so confusing.
Honestly, you and folks like you remind me of the ACLUites who stroke out if, God forbid, there might be a creche or a menorah on some small speck of public property.
“You state ‘There’s plenty of Mormon-hatred around this place.’, and there’s plenty of ‘you can’t criticize ANYTHING MORMON OR YOU’RE A BIGOTED HATER’ around this place too.”
I agree with both premises you state.
I think that there is a lot of Mormon-hatred around FR, and it’s ugly. I also think that a lot of LDS get their panties in a wad when folks merely point out the differences between the LDS religion and Christianity, or when folks even politely and courteously criticize the LDS religion.
But you don’t seem like a Mormon running around like a chicken with its head cut off screaming about anti-Mormon bigotry, so it didn’t seem appropriate to offer criticism to you on that basis.
“Freedom of speech here lately is subject to the arbitrary mormon filter in exactly the same way that the muslim filter is being imposed on our culture. That should be satisfactory to you.”
Au contraire.
My view is that the antidote to both the attempts to squash theological discussion that calls into question LDS claims and teachings AND the anti-Mormon hatred is to nail them both, openly and honestly.

Care to provide a link to a post wherein you have personally attacked someone for their bigotry against non-mormons, in the way you have attacked me? Have you intervened in a situation where there were attacks against those posting documented, factual theological points against mormonism? Link?
it didn’t seem appropriate to offer criticism to you on that basis.
Oh, I see..you find it "appropriate" to criticize me personally, instead of responding to the points in my post? Do you have some kind of "get out of jail free" card regarding forum rules on personal attacks?
It sure appears to me that you are attempting to "squash" MY opportunity to state my opinions while holding your own out as superior.
