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.

But...but, they are all so nice!

Like I’ve said before. Mormons are just people. They are not better, kinder, wiser, ...they are just as full of sin as the rest of us and in desperate need of a Savior.

I'm going to be generous and suggest they may be showing their support via FReepmail.

It's possible. I hope so.

His whole reasoning is to try to marginalized the Lord’s Chruch so again not interested in your game!

There you go again, resty, making that foolish claim that yours is "the Lord's Church"

And the mormons keep demanding to be called "Christian" when it is clearly evident that their goal is to supplant the Lord's Church and HIS words with those of Joseph Smith.

So let me get this straight Resty. To shore up your argument that there is tremendous discord between different denominations, something that is imperative for the LDS faithful to do to further hide their short comings, you have to travel thousands of miles away, to a conflict that ended 3 decades ago the was as much political in nature as it was religious.

Amazing...

You totally skip over the numerous ecumenical organizations world wide that serve mankind daily, the thousands of non denominational worship services that occur during Christian holidays across this great land, the number of charities that are promoted by people of all Christian strips, all with nary a knife drawn or shot fired.

I remember vividly the tremendous outpouring of love and support from PROTESTIANTS that went out to the CATHOLIC Church when John Paul II passed, a great and revered leader and servant of the True Christ. We even had a brief service and prayer in honor of the man the following Sunday in my Church.

Yeah, you miss all that in your 5 thousand mile 30 decade ago trip.

What;’s next, the Salem witch trials?

The Inquisition?

Pathetic...

Seven, I have let you know that I am a poster on MAD board. I indicated it last week by quoting one of your posts there about the missing stone box the golden plates were found in.

Why on earth would you take on Jim Rob in that forum knowing I was there.

Honestly, I don’t want you banned. I’ve enjoyed our interaction here. You are knowledgeable and even, dare I say it, ....kind.

I hope you are only receiving a “time-out.” I hope both you and fred will be back.

No it is not I who needs to do this, it is the Holy Spirit that witness to those who are ready to receive all I can do is share!

I think Sevenbak was one of the more classy, thoughtful, heartfelt posters here w/ a true passion for conservatism. His insight as a conservative journalist was also very welcome. Another one bites the dust. I’m sure many here will feel quite accomplished. Sad.

I was sorry to see seven make the error that got him banned, but I don't see that JR had a choice when he went to a mopologist board and posted against FR.

As to accomplishment, seven accomplished his banning all by himself.

Undermining FR while availing himself of Jim's hospitality is hardly a "classy" action, even though you may disagree.

In addition, those FReepers who may have known of the undertaking by greg west had, IMO, an obligation to alert JR to the website and its avowed purpose. I just wonder how many mormon FReepers did so.

I’m LDS and you could have knocked me over with a feather when I read this post. I will never agitate against a conservative forum, we need to hang together to get rid of the ‘leadership’ of this country. P.S. This is the first I’ve heard of this and I will NOT be joining them.

Thank you for speaking out.

The Holy Spirit is not about to witness to anyone about Joseph Smith. The purpose of the HS is to point to Christ, and Jesus Christ is the end of prophecy.

Furthermore, no one can have the gift of the HS who does not believe that Jesus is Who He said He is, as revealed in the Holy Word of God.

I also promise to be nice to all my Mormon friends here on FR and elsewhere. Even those who put me on their hate list.

Remember this. Our liberal friends are laughing out loud at this stupid divisive flail. It's called divid and conquer. This is a wedgey and everyone pissing and moaning on it is a sucker.
