I am familiar with both testaments, the Book of Mormon and several other religious texts. People have free choice despite what the churches say. The good or bad they do is their own and it is not up to a preacher to define it as bad because it is not of his church. The scorecard is between them and God.

We simply get to choose if the behavior of the candidate is such that we want him in the office he seeks.

I choose not to put good and bad tags on people because they don’t pray my way. I do base my decision on how honorable they have been in their past dealings. You need to make your decision on what ever criteria is important to you.

Yep, and every post like this she makes here at FR is helping the MSM defend Romney by teaching them how to attack "anti-mormons".

The MSM is helping him now because he is the easiest to SHRED later.

Sandy Let me remind you that we Mormons stand with conservatives almost 100% on virtually every issue.

Actually, you mormons stand with mormons 100% on EVERY issue. The "church" is the be all, end all and controls the members virtually 100%.

Yes the offshoot LDS sect of mormonism claims that the book of mormon written by FLDS/LDS "Prophet" Joe Smith is the "most correct of any book on earth", AND that Smith's "Retranslation" of the ENTIRE bible (JST) is fraudulent, so they use the "mistranslated" bible God(s) told Smith not to use instead.

The MOST correct book??
 
 
Just some of the 3000+ changes...

Mosiah 21:28
Original 1830 - "...king Benjamin had a gift from God, whereby he could interpret such engravings;..."
1964 change- "...king Mosiah had a gift from God, whereby he could interpret such engravings;..."

3 Nephi 22:4
1830 -"...for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more."
1981- "...for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more."

I Nephi 12:18
1830 - ...yea, even the word of the justice of the Eternal God, and Jesus Christ, which is the Lamb of God... (historical note- Jesus Christ was not revealed to the Nephites until II Nephi 10:3.)
1981 - yea, even the word of the justice of the Eternal God, and Messiah which is the Lamb of God...

Actual the LDS sect would have us believe that during the cold war their leadership with God(s) at the head were John Birchers, and now their leadership with God(s) at the head are Harry Reiders.

The "eternal progression" of God(S) has taken a sharp turn to the left lately, according to the ever-changing doctrines of mormonism.

Said the "Prophet" Ezra Taft Benson:

...we honor more than those who brought forth the Constitution. We honor the Lord who revealed it. God Himself has borne witness to the fact that He is pleased with the final product of the work of these great patriots. In a revelation to the Prophet Joseph Smith on August 6, 1833, the Savior admonished: “I, the Lord, justify you, and your brethren of my church, in befriending that law which is the constitutional law of the land” (Doctrine and Covenants 98:6).
I reverence the Constitution of the United States as a sacred document. To me its words are akin to the revelations of God, for God has placed His stamp of approval on the Constitution of this land. I testify that the God of heaven sent some of His choicest spirits to lay the foundation of this government, and He has sent other choice spirits—even you who read my words—to preserve it.

Said temple recommend holding Harry Reid to all of the student body and faculty of BYU:

"Ezra Taft Benson, active in very conservative politics before he became a president of the LDS Church, and Ernest L. Wilkinson, the president of BYU from 1951-71, were among past church leaders "who were very right-wing people politically." "Members of the church are obedient," Reid said, "they are followers in the truest sense of the word, and I think they've taken members of the church down a path that is the wrong path.

Current church leaders must agree with Reid about Benson taking the church "down the wrong path"...Here they are hanging out with him AFTER his BYU speech.

Sandra, I think you’re doing your cause a disservice. Let it die. Have you noticed that no one really pays attention to the anti Mormon spam anymore? The vast majority here see them for who they are.

Let them slink around by themselves. Don’t give them the forum. I’m sure it’s frustrating for you, but just let them do their thing. Nobody’s watching anymore. Most of the Mormon aologetic’s have been kicked off so it’s not any fun or educational anymore.

Don’t take offense of the Romney threads. While there are the bigots who don’t like Romney because of his religion, most here here don’t like Romney because of his politics, & believe it or not, because they don’t feel he represents Mormon’s very well. Kind of a lesser version of Reid.

I respect you Sandra. You have a great heart. But on this, just let it go. Don’t give them the fuel. Look at how they’ve spammed just this thread.

...and your source for this comment is...???

You have no way of counting the viewers of any one FR thread nor if they agree with the information posted. There are new sign-ups every day, and just because FReepers do not comment on a thread is not a method of whether they actually read the information.

That said, we do appreciate the opportunity to play with those mormons who still have the courage to try and defend their faith with information that would dispute our posts.

The ONLY reason she is supporting Romney is because of an obscure "Prophecy" by FLDS/LDS "Prophet" Joe Smith. The illogical claim of being a conservative AND supporting Clinton clone Romney comes fromher belief in this "prophecy". It is not possible to argue with her about Romney without bringing her cult into it. There is no loguic, only the results of brainwashing. Our onyl hoep to HELP her is to put evidence that she has been duped in front of her face.

I KNOW, I WAS SAVED FROM THE CULT LAST ELECTION CYCLE, HERE BY THESE SAME FREEPERS, BY THIS SAME METHOD.

Saundra, do you even realize just how much I understand what you are doing ? I think it's likely we know each other. I think it's just as likely that you were there at the rally I took out a second mrgage on my house to pay for, on the West Steps of the California State Capitol Building, in June of '97, where in front of thousands of people I raised the "Title of Liberty" !

I Really did that. :)...I'm a child of Ezra Taft Benson, like you and Glenn Beck.

I KNOW.

How can you square this background with Harry Reid and Mitt Romney ?

Consider that Benson was a good patriotic GUY but a FALSE PROPHET, just liek SMITH, YOUNG and MONSON. It's really the ONLY EXPLANATION when you seriously look at the facts. Romney will DESTROY our constitution, nto save it.

The good news is Christ IS in charge, and loves you. He will forgive you, and so will we. Reject the ever-changing teachings of men and hold fast to the bible....The KJV will do.
