New Mormon anti-freeper site and campaign to bankrupt FR
rumor mill | March 29, 2009 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 03/29/2009 2:35:03 PM PDT by 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.

I’m sure many here will feel quite accomplished. Sad.

I am not one of them, I publicly and privately commended 7 for his comments to west and Spam against their nonsense. Had he left it there, there should have been no problem. I think his starting another FR thread on a mormon apologetics BB negated his thoughtful comments to west et al.

Actually I will miss Sev as well, hope he returns also, though I fear he crossed the line with his posts on the other sites.

He may have been wrong on a number of things but he was a fighter and did try and be straight forward as possible without the seemingly requisite tap dancing. I can respect that.

LOL...

No, just his endless word games, it had become clear he had an empty hand. He had become so obvious he helped us more than he did his own side...

“When our leaders speak, the thinking has been done. When they propose a plan — it is God’s plan. When they point the way, there is no other which is safe. When they give direction, it should mark the end of controversy.” (Improvement Era, June 1945, p. 354)

That is quite scary.

No one should insist that people don’t think for themselves.


When I was LDS and researching its history and doctrines, I was cautioned not to “think myself out of the Church”, which is exactly what happened.

The LDS church CANNOT withstand close scrutiny.

If you are Admin on a forum there is an extra “button” you can click that will display all of the IP addresses that a screen name has posted from.

That doesn't explain how the admin of the anti-FReeper website would know the IPs of individual FReepers which is what I thought brytlea's question was.

I'm sure someone has already said it, but this is clearly a group of those Mormons who can't figure out why Mitt Romney is generally persona non grata around here.

Hint: It's not because he's a Mormon.

Thank you for defending free speech much appreciated.

I am still wondering what is going it could be Ron Paul people!

this whole thing is feeling like open season on the LDS and I am trying to understand why did the LDS become bad neighbors, they are not good citizens,

I am not a Ron Paul person but they did usurp the talks from the LDS Prophest for their movement which they should not have done but I still am strong in supporting what these leaders had to say about the awful situation we are finding our selves in!

It tears my heart out what has happen to Michigan I was born and raised here and did not the degree at the role that this state has played in jobs for the nation as a whole from the auto makers and the by products etc.

It makes me weep and what I heard today makes me weep even more about GM and Chrysler my beautiful country is being shreaded and it seem no one is caring all seem passive and my youth is gone so I feel of little help.

But it is comforting to hear LDS lesders warn and knowing America as a whole a Judeo Christian nation and some how we will over come!

Please disreguard any Ron Paul stuff if there is any!

You don’t need to be LDS to understand this warning!
