You have misquoted the brother. He said his brother “believed” he had been shunned to hell. Neither the brother nor the man’s father is blaming the victim, no matter how much you try to twist their words.

The article actually misquotes the brother. The earliest articles said that he “believed he had been shunned to hell.” Our church does not practice “shunning.” Even those who are excommunicated can attend church. I know a few who have done it, and been rebaptized. And, we don’t believe that the promiscuity for which he was apparently excommunicated years ago would condemn him to “hell.” It takes much more than that to go to actual “hell.” So, he cooked up this belief pretty much on his own, when he was off his meds.

LOL...the brother believed he was shunned. And as a former mormon, I have seen such shunning by mormon congregations.

Try another straw man to take the spotlight off your accusation of FReepers condoning murder, this one doesn't work.

It looks like the attention Glenn has brought to the mormon church hasn't all been positive nationwide from the reaction of you and other mormons on FR. It always seems to come as a surprise to mormons to find out the whole world isn't fooled by the facade of holiness presented by your PR team. Then, of course, we have glaring examples like you showing your true nature here.
