New Mormon anti-freeper site and campaign to bankrupt FR

rumor mill | March 29, 2009 | Jim Robinson

[Jim Robinson]

I understand there is a new anti-freeper site started by disgruntled former and present Mormon FReepers and it is their intention of bankrupting FR during the coming Freepathon by withholding their donations and disrupting our activities. Well, all I can say is, if they feel that badly against FR, by all means they should withhold their donations and drop out of FR. But it they attempt to disrupt our operations I will guarantee they will no longer be members of FR. If that is their wish, so be it.

I'm not going to try to defend FR from their claims of religious persecution, but I will say that Mormons have and always have had free reign to post their threads on FR just as all other religious groups have enjoyed. Free Republic defends the right to freedom of religion and has always welcomed religious discussion and always will. And Mormons have always been welcome here. I have absolutely nothing against Mormons.

If you are one who has left or is leaving, I wish you well, but disruption of FR is not welcome and will not be tolerated.

And this is not the first time such activity has been attempted by groups of disgruntled former FReepers. Good luck with that. There is always some group that feels FR should be bent to their way of thinking and end up saying my way or the highway. Well, I don't know about you, but I'm not changing so I guess it's the highway. Is it Feb 8 yet?

God bless.

By the hole truth you must mean it’s really deep?

Hey pal, your fake southern drawl and use of the word "y'all" is absolutely laughable. I know you're trying to make an underhanded insult against the Baptists who killed ole joe, but it doesn't work with me.

I am from UTAH. Born in Idaho, raised in UTAH, and lifelong devout mormon, until recently when I resigned. I AM A DIRECT DESCENDANT OF MARTIN HARRIS, ONE OF THE 3 WITNESSES IN THE BOOK OF MORMON.

You still haven't answered my question. Because of the words of Christ below, I utterly reject your assertion that it's MY DUTY to determine if YOUR FOUNDERS were speaking as men or prophets.

But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
For by thy words thou shalt be justified and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. (Matthew 12:36-37)

Yep, using her FR handle, too. You’d think she’d make use of the opportunity to attack you on this thread, LOL.

[Elsie]

There is a big difference between what the outsiders taught me and what the truth is.

I doubt it - for you NEVER show what the 'truth' is on these threads: merely ALLEDGE to something you have assured us that you 'know'.

Answer P-marlowe’s question Fred

++++++++++++

Ya’ll are doing a good job of reinforcing each other’s inbred teachings.

[Elsie]

Evidently it was a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Shoot first; THEN draw the target!

You still haven't answered the questions Fred and it isn't hard.

[greyfoxx39]

Many take those quotes out of context to make them seem to say something they do not really say.

Post the evidence, Fred. Oh, I forgot..you posted a whole THREAD and hardly anyone agreed with your evidence so you ran off for a few days and abandoned the thread.;)

[Elsie]

I suspect I ended up on his list because of several posts I made to try and explain why anti-Mormonism will never end and why it is often wrongfully received as anti-Mormon.

Suspect nothing; girl - you failed to bow to the feet of Baal and the statue of Nebuchadnezzar!

[humblegunner]

You keep posting plus signs.

++++++++

Are you trying to add something up?

[ejonesie22]

Fred I think your name should be on Greg West’s list along with the rest of us “antis”...

Lord know you help us more than most...

[Elsie]

To the best of my knowledge, there is nothing that binds you to the LDS...particularly if their teachings are false.

You don't UNDERSTAND!!!

We've made COVENANTS!!!!!!

youve nailed it marlowe

[greyfoxx39]

I guess some folks think they're doing the Almighty's work in exposing what they see as the truth but the "slash and burn" method of evangelism makes me want to run as fast as I can in the opposite direction. It's basically Islam with a "born again" mantra.

I guess in your opinion we should all follow our glorious leader, the messiah Hussein, and sing Kumbaya with every false belief that comes down the pike...thanks, but no thanks.

[Godzilla]

I did, and you are showing how much you care to research what you say.

Then it would be very simple for you to ping me to that post because all I've seen from you on whether or not you condone SPAM's insulting threat against FR and JR is absolutely nothing.

[SENTINEL]

"Ya’ll are doing a good job of reinforcing each other’s inbred teachings."

So here is some more abuse. Can't answer the question so you accuse us of being a bunch of dumb southerners who exist as a result of incest.

Unlike your spamlds cohorts, I WILL NOT hit the abuse button. I want the world to see this thread.

I'm so sorry you have to be be ashamed of your "prophets".....I really am. I was right there with you not too long ago.

I never have to be ashamed of my Savior, and NO MAN stands between he and I.

[Elsie]

You need to show me where Brother Smith taught that God never progressed from what we are today before you can show that you are not deceiving others with your teachings.

 

Nice try; but I defer to the Words of Wisdom from one of your late Prophets:

 

In conclusion let us summarize this grand key, these “Fourteen Fundamentals in Following the Prophet”, for our salvation depends on them.

1. The prophet is the only man who speaks for the Lord in everything.
2. The living prophet is more vital to us than the standard works.
3. The living prophet is more important to us than a dead prophet.
4. The prophet will never lead the church astray.
5. The prophet is not required to have any particular earthly training or credentials to speak on any subject or act on any matter at any time.
6. The prophet does not have to say “Thus Saith the Lord,” to give us scripture.
7. The prophet tells us what we need to know, not always what we want to know.
8. The prophet is not limited by men’s reasoning.
9. The prophet can receive revelation on any matter, temporal or spiritual.
10. The prophet may advise on civic matters.
11. The two groups who have the greatest difficulty in following the prophet are the proud who are learned and the proud who are rich.
12. The prophet will not necessarily be popular with the world or the worldly.
13. The prophet and his counselors make up the First Presidency—the highest quorum in the Church.
14. The prophet and the presidency—the living prophet and the First Presidency—follow them and be blessed—reject them and suffer.

I testify that these fourteen fundamentals in following the living prophet are true. If we want to know how well we stand with the Lord then let us ask ourselves how well we stand with His mortal captain—how close do our lives harmonize with the Lord’s anointed—the living Prophet—President of the Church, and with the Quorum of the First Presidency.

These are no doubt the same Palin bashing pro-Romney posters investing out site.

Have to disagree. I think that both Palin and Romney are fine people. I have noticed lately that there has been a huge increase in those bashing Romney. Some posts have been way over the top. The thing that disturbs me is the complete intolerance of anyone not towing the line of the Romney haters.(do not like the word "haters")

No one can stand up for Romney on anything. They are totally pushed aside on many threads as being ignorant in the extreme.

[Elsie]

What is it about you; Mr. TarBay; that makes folks want to play with you?

[trisham]

Ya’ll are doing a good job of reinforcing each other’s inbred teachings.
