I’m quite confident that I’m not an idiot.
And, the shooter was no more a “Mormon” than any of the ex-Mormon “flying inmans” who hate Mormons so much that they end up frothing at the mouth on every Mormon-related thread.
Bearing false witness is......what?
Give some examples of frothing at the mouth.
Will you? Can you?
You think I hate you? I pity you. I do hate anything that is a perversion of the Gospel. And mormonism is just that. I don't hate you. I hate what you've become.
If you think I'm frothing at the mouth right now....I again pity you. I love you...and want you to see the light.
FRegards,
Oh, yes, the standard old, unsubstantiated charge. As a lawyer who is "confident that she isn't an idiot", I would expect that you can see the distinction, because it is not hard to understand. Flying Inmans do NOT hate MormonS, we hate MormonISM. As the Apostle Paul tells us in Ephesians 6:12, we contend not against flesh and blood (the Mormon people) but against powers and principalities (the institution of Mormonism).
Why would we hate Mormons when we view them as victims of an evil system? Do I feel compassion for the widow and her small sons? Yes. I prayed for them today during my lunch hour that God would give them comfort during these times. Of course, I also prayed that their eyes be opened about Mormonism.
“any of the ex-Mormon “flying inmans” who hate Mormons “
An assertion without fact.
Name names. Show posts that “hate Mormons”.
In law school, I know they must have distinguished between assertion and opinion and fact. Your posts have been devoid of fact and long on opinion on this thread.
Why thank you. I resemble that remark so much except for one, tiny, itty bitty, detail, I'm married to a very devout and active MORMON. A detail some on this thread have chosen to overlook in making their smears. Your premise has been shot to hell "lady".
Your petty, yet ill-conceived attempt to smear all of us has offered a very enlightening perspective that mormons and their defenders have towards us.
The work you have done is so much more significant than I, as an ex-mo, could have ever hoped to achieve on my own.
If you even care to take note, in my first post on this thread, I offered up prayers for this mans family. And then I noticed that you and others like you started posting innuendos about the "anti's" here on FR.
First, referencing the RF as some type of proof that this type of tragedy could be perpetuated as a result of the comments there by using carefully parsed comments to afford some type of cover, plausible deniability. And then you coming right out and saying what many of you were thinking, accusing a FReeper of this heinous act.
It was you and people like you who started this stinking flame war. And not a one of you has attempted to back off of the rhetoric.
I'm grateful my MORMON wife doesn't behave like you or any of the others who have posted comments in the same vein as you.
If I hated Mormons I would leave them in darkness to find out in death that it is not Joseph Smith that opens the doors to exaltation . His doorway leads to hells fire..
It is sad when an unbalanced man seeks a solution in death.. my sympathy to all the families for their loss...
