A three-judge panel of the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of FairLDS, Scott Gordon, and Allen Wyatt and against Sandra Tanner and Utah Lighthouse Ministry.
This lawsuit was an effort to limit free speech by making an online parody websites legally actionable. The case was previously thrown out in summery judgment by the Tenth Circuit Court for the District of Utah, but Mrs. Tanner appealed.

Non, no, I knew, I was being sarcastic...
Oh, yeah, I forget.
Nothing like winning souls via secrets...
Indeed...
At least every morning around 6:00 am...
Wife is of Norwegian descent. Scandinavians always have a coffee brewing no matter what their religion. My grandmother was from Sweden. When grandpa the Bishop went out to the fields, she would sneak out her coffee stash and brew it in a saucepan.
You’re right as my father used to say about me, “That kid jist ain’t thinkin’ right”! (Utah farmer accent applied)
I'll have to try your coffee sometime, the perfect cup of Java is a lifetime pursuit...
Decaffinated coffee is like faith without works....
LOL...
Or Gasoline without hydrocarbons...
Been busy with g/kids but here's a late answer: I don't know.
What you said didn't bother me even when I thought it was addressed to me, I thought you were making a "haha".
When I realized what it was about, I thought it was dead on accurate.
The person you addressed it too is a "baiter" but I don't bite. As I told him earlier, "he amuses me".
I hope you didn't take that series ly.
No, that was becasue we were told we were bigots if we didnt vote for Romney...
So I am expecting all the “non-bigots” who said that to us to vote for Obama
:)
Most people know enough not to bite, but that doesn’t stop a baiter anyway, nor does it change the fact that that is what’s going on.
This is one of the funniest threads I have been on in a while. You poor people! Those Mormons are just making victims out of the lot of you aren’t they. I’ll try to shed a tear. Have fun with the whining!
