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.
You mean there are FReepers who actually like him? ;-)
That is one funny site!
I can’t believe it’s not satire.
Hmmm...
How do we know the site itself is not a plant to expose itself and thereby secure its failure by trying to expose the fake anti-mormons on freerepublic trying to secure freerepublic’s certain failure...
Now tell me that.
I can just feel the love.....
Dose that make you feel better?
It easy for to say when it is not your ox being gored, tomorrow there will be a long list of anti LDS post to greet my nice fresh day from him that has been going on for years!
Elsie he makes it personal because he makes it his mission to put me in his sites every day!
Are you still a member of SPAM Fred? Do you condone their actions against FR?
What say you?
Wow! I am absolutely astounded! This honor should really go to some one else; the only thing I can think of is some of my postings revealing that I am a San Diego State University alum and despise BYU...
Seriously, I made one post a couple of weeks ago that SPAM gave what I thought was a fairly civil respnse and somehow I not only made the list, but I am at the top!
This is the post in question: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/religion/2207473/posts?page=2#2
There are several replies and responses on that thread — you guys know me, I consider myself mostly civil, but that goes out the window when dealing with trolls and morons, er, mormons. Its not so much the messed religion, there are plenty of those out there, but the fact that they tell people that they are Christians. A flat out lie and one that makes my blood boil...
Are you a Mormon?
Then you would not have asked. But to answer your "unasked question", I do not belong to any church or religion. I read my Bible, on my own because I have found most religions to be separatists. I pray that He leads me to the right church, that I can become a member of, with all my heart and soul. That has yet to happen.
I have posted on this thread because I have seen some of these FReepers spew hatred towards the Mormons. They are mean and not Christian like, as they portray themselves to be. How can I be judgmental of them? The Lord says to judge a tree by it's fruits. That is what I am doing.
I may be wrong, but at least I am wrong on my accord and not following someone or someones who proclaim to "know it all".
LOL!!
Don’t have much to prove, thanks...
I’m not offended by your response - in fact, I find your reply instructive. I am always glad to learn something new.
Have a great evening, and a pleasant Monday!
A.A.C.
I think both parties bore some responsibility. That’s all. Thank you.
If a few Mormon Freepers would stop posting articles boasting of all the wonderful acts performed by Mormons, Mormon threads would almost disappear.
Apparently for you, googling some passages on the computer is a okay in your world.
dangus, thank you.
Just for your information, I have no problem with Catholicism. You will never find me in on a Catholic-Protestant fight. In fact I attend services at Our Lady of Lourdes on occasion. I am a seeker of Christ - He takes me where He takes me.
While my experiences with Mormonism have left me with a distaste of those who claim special “authority” over me and try to come between me and my Savior, I truly believe my Catholic brothers and sisters are in Christ. We are one.
And then you have learned nothing.........
That’s not love you’re feeling.
Ahhhh, I knew this one was coming.
Telling the truth about disturbing practices the Mormon church wants to keep hidden from outsiders.
You must have me confusing with someone else, because I am very pro Cathoic and the only beef I have is with these anti’s!
They do not want to have common group to find out what brings us togather, it always about what pulls us apart!
The Lord said to “Love One Another” even those that dispised you!
“Whoo hoo!! I’m on the “The list of known Mormon-haters on FreeRepublic.com” list, too!!!!”
Hated by the Mormons... hated by the Evolutionists... that’s why I like you.
Keep ‘em hoppin’!
