Hey Binger; do you have a picture from your friend's place on TOP of Sugar Knoll?
Looking out across the canyon he's situated next to?

When you learn about mormonISM get back to me.
At last,
I shall give myself to the desert again,
That I, in its golden dust,
May be blown from a barren peak
Broadcast over the sun-lands.
If you should desire some news of me,
Go ask the little horned toad
Whose home is in the dust,
Or seek it among the fragrant sage,
Or question the mountain juniper
And, by their silence,
They will truly inform you.
-Maynard Dixon (May, 1935)
Recited last night by Mrs. Binger shortly after a strong presentation by David Lee.

mormonISM is not Christian.
And not one person has said mormons can not practice their religion.
Not one person has said that they want an official state religion.
Either learn the Constitution and mormonISM or be quiet, it really appears you know nothing about either.

Looks like I need to photoshop those days offa them pix!
I see that the Orderville WebCam is showing the glow of dawn approacing your place; you early bird!
Now THAT’s what I’m talkin’ about!
(I guess his view of White Tower is blocked by the cliff to the left.)
Wow!
I didn’t know you had a slot canyon less than 2 miles from your front door!!
(2 miles fer yer pet CROW, anyway.)

I’m just happy my mother showed up clothed. :)
Seriously, Mr and Mrs Binger were very gracious considering I showed up with my crazy mother rather than my intellectual husband.
The view (and the drive there) is very impressive, moreso than even the rest of Utah.
Glad it went well last night.
Sorry to have been in such a hurry. I’ll bet you enjoyed the drive through Zion Park though.
We DO have a "Jim Robinson run Christian FR forum"....or hadn't you noticed?
“I have every right to expect our nation’s leaders to believe in certain values. That doesn’t mean I want those leaders to LEGISLATE or require every citizen believe as they do!”
Values and religion are separate. Why are you worried about Mitt’s Mormonism if you don’t expect leaders to legislate based on their religion?
“Are you a moron, or are you possessed by a retarded ghost? As challenged show me where did I explicited state that, not your sorry derailed logic. Facts are he was a mormon and as such his decisions were influenced by his beliefs. Only a stark raving loon would infer that I am advocating a legislated religion - open you constitution and read it before emptying your mind.”
No, I’m not a Mormon, but I’m not a bigot like you who supports something that the Constitution bars dumbass. You said before that, because Mitt didn’t disavow his religion, he governed as a Mormon. You have no proof of that, and it makes your prediction on how he’d be as president look stupid.
“If a person claims a religious belief - that is not a public decision politics - pretty simple to figure out - I would have expected that even you could have. In case you haven’t figured it out - you are digging a very deep hole for yourself.”
I didn’t say it was a public decision. You said that any candidate who would be a Muslim who didn’t support Sharia Law would be accused as being a non-believer. I said it wouldn’t be up to the public to decide.
“Nor the constitution either - yet we see with this one the backdoor moves to challenge our 2d amendment rights and if empowered by a like thinking congress can legislate to overturn the SC - checks and balances thing you didn’t learn in school - you must have had a public education.”
This has nothing to do with Mitt Romney or abortion. You claimed that the Constitution protected the right to an abortion, because of the Supreme Court, just like it protects religion, when it does not.
“And you are a bigger bigot to say I can’t use his religious beliefs as part of my evaluation of his qualifications to be president. His religion is a component of why I don’t want him as president. Small minded people like yourself fail to grasp that simple concept.”
You’ve yet to show how as Governor of Mass. he governed negatively through his Mormonism or as a Mormon. You can evaluate him as a Mormon, but then you can’t like the Constitution, because the Constitution bars that.
“You have an open mind, and a mouth to match. And that same constitution ALLOWS ANYONE (PROTECTS THE RIGHT) to judge the capabilities of that person for office based upon ANY criteria they desire.
You should really read the constitution to understand where you are wrong some time. Unfortunately you’ll have to read it - it doesn’t come in a picture version.”
Your criteria is bigoted, it you are using the First Amendment to say something that the Constitution bars
