Mia Love Clinches GOP Nomination for Congress

Roll call ^ | April 26, 2014

[SMGFan]

Former Saratoga Springs Mayor Mia Love earned ample support from Utah Republicans on Saturday to win her party’s nod for the House — and most likely become the GOP’s first black congresswoman.

I hate auto correct.....”she wins in the general”

[svcw]

No it is mormonISM
I do not capitalize because I distain mormonISM

[AuH2ORepublican]

Oh, and it’s spelled “amoeba.” And “clan.”

[Elsie]

You will still consider me damned.

Wrong again; Papa.

You are probably just as saved as a Protestant.

You just follow a bunch of extra rules and regulations not found in Scripture.

[Elsie]

Don’t really care about your opinions.

Opinions don't bother me too much.

But when FACTS tend to overwhelm opinions; then I tend to chime in.

[Elsie]

You will still consider me damned.

MORMONISM considers BOTH of us 'damned'!

  "Both Catholics and Protestants are nothing less than the 'whore of Babylon' whom the Lord denounces by the mouth of John the Revelator as having corrupted all the earth by their fornications and wickedness. Any person who shall be so corrupt as to receive a holy ordinance of the Gospel from the ministers of any of these apostate churches will be sent down to hell with them, unless they repent"

 

 (The Seer, p. 255  Orson Pratt )

Frankly, I don’t care about religions other than my own, so long as they leave me alone.

HMMMmmm...

1 Corinthians 11:2
 2.  I praise you for remembering me in everything and for holding to the teachings,  just as I passed them on to you.

 

 

Ephesians 4:14-15
 14.  Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming.
 15.  Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ.

 

 

2 Thessalonians 2:15
   So then, brothers, stand firm and hold to the teachings  we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter.

 

 

2 Thessalonians 3:6
  In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers, to keep away from every brother who is idle and does not live according to the teaching  you received from us.

 

 

1 Timothy 1:3-4
 3.  As I urged you when I went into Macedonia, stay there in Ephesus so that you may command certain men not to teach false doctrines any longer
 4.  nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies. These promote controversies rather than God's work--which is by faith.

 

 

1 Timothy 1:7
  They want to be teachers of the law, but they do not know what they are talking about or what they so confidently affirm.

 

 

1 Timothy 2:7
   And for this purpose I was appointed a herald and an apostle--I am telling the truth, I am not lying--and a teacher of the true faith to the Gentiles.

 

 

1 Timothy 4:1-2
 1.  The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons.
 2.  Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron.

 

 

1 Timothy 4:6
   If you point these things out to the brothers, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, brought up in the truths of the faith and of the good teaching that you have followed.

 

 

1 Timothy 4:11
  Command and teach these things.

 

 

1 Timothy 6:3-5
 3.  If anyone teaches false doctrines and does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching,
 4.  he is conceited and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions 
 5.  and constant friction between men of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain.

 

 

2 Timothy 1:13
  What you heard from me, keep as the pattern of sound teaching, with faith and love in Christ Jesus.

 

 

 2 Timothy 2:15-17
 15.  Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.
 16.  Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly.
 17.  Their teaching will spread like gangrene.

 

 

2 Timothy 3:16-17
 16.  All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,
 17.  so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

 

 

 2 Timothy 4:3-4
  3.  For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
  4.  They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

 

 

Titus 1:11
   They must be silenced, because they are ruining whole households by teaching things they ought not to teach--and that for the sake of dishonest gain.

 

 

Titus 2:1
  You must teach what is in accord with sound doctrine.

 

 

Titus 2:15
  These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you.

 

 

 Hebrews 13:9
 Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings.

 

 

 2 Peter 2:1-3
 1.  But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
 2.  Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
 3.  In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.

 

 

2 John 1:10
  If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take him into your house or welcome him.

Go the hell away.....I do not wish to engage in any conversation with a collectivist supporter.

[AuH2ORepublican]

“Collectivist” ... sounds like the Democrats for whom you shill.

GO MIA LOVE!

[reaganaut]

It will all depend on who she is up against. Last time it was an LDS white male, and she lost. religion, sex and race trumps party in Utah in that order.

Mormon vs Non-Mormon = Mormon will win

Both Mormon, black vs white = white will win

Both Mormon, both white or black man vs. woman = man will win

I actually like Mia and would like to see her win but the DNC knows that is how the game works behind the Zion curtain.

[reaganaut]

See post 170. Until you have worked in politics behind the Zion curtain, you don’t know squat about it.

When Mormon 'Prophet' and second President of the Church, Brigham Young, spoke in 1863 the following was also said:

"Shall I tell you the law of God in regard to the African race? If the white man who belongs to the chosen seed mixes his blood with the seed of Cain, the penalty, under the law of God is death on the spot. This will always be so."

(Journal of Discourses, Vo. 10, p. 110)

It's a GOOD thing that MIA and family are living now, than 150 years ago...

 

 

[AuH2ORepublican]

Mia Love is a black, Mormon woman, and will face a white, Mormon male. So I guess you’re calling it for Owens right now? Please come back in November on election night to see how you did.

Funny, Love faced white, Mormon males in the state convention in both 2012 and 2014, and won over 60% of the vote each time, in each case deep behind the wall of Zion. And in the 2012 general election, 49% of voters cast their votes for the black, Mormon woman over the white, Mormon male, and Love came within 0.3% of defeating the 6-term incumbent with the magical name. So perhaps your formula is correct for some Mormon voters, but clearly not most.

[Elsie]

There are curtains, and then there are CURTAINS!

[Elsie]

I think you may be on to something, for NOBODY wants to be even HINTED at being a racist, even in UTAH - not THESE days!!

If you’re a white guy, and your Black/Mexican mistress is also boinking some black guys on the side; you’d BETTER not complain about it in graphic terms!

But the news is not ALL bad; as you can still bad mouth MUSLIMs with impunity.

[Impy]

The idiocy on this thread is breathtaking. This thread should be nothing but positive posts celebrating our near certain pickup of this House seat and the election of the first Black Republican woman to Congress, something that will really get the democrat’s goat. Instead it’s turned into “lets bash Mormons in the most idiotic way possible”.

You’d think that Mormons must be liberal scum instead of some of the most socially and politically conservative people in the country the way some people are going after them. Some rich and powerful Mormons are liberals you say? Guess what, some rich and powerful (insert EVERY religious group you can think of) are liberals. Utah is the most Republican state in the country and almost EVERY politician from BOTH parties in that state is a Mormon.

But Matheson won a few elections, usually narrowly and I think every single time against a Mormon Republican, and Harry Reid won a few elections, in a different state, therefore Mormons are pernicious? What?

And the posts saying Love, a Mormon, will lose to a guy with no money, when she almost beat an entrenched incumbent 2 years ago, because it’s a “Mormon district”. I can’t even respond to that insane non-logic other than to say 2 + 2 does not equal 5 and this is not Candyland.

I’m sure I’ll be flamed now by some fool who will tell me “You don’t understand Mormons” or make fun of me for implying that perhaps they are blinded by bigotry.

Perhaps I don’t understand the religious debate. I’m not trying to because it doesn’t interest me in the slightest. Do I find Mormon beliefs rather weird? Yes. But are Mormons crashing planes into buildings? No? Do I think they are a cult dedicated to electing Harry Reid and Jim Matheson? NO, I think that’s silly. So do I care that their beliefs are weird? No.

One thing I do understand fairly well is electoral politics, these people clearly don’t.

[Elsie]

Instead it’s turned into “lets bash Mormons in the most idiotic way possible”.

Yes; posting FACTS about Mormonism is IDIOTIC; but what should we do; LIE??

[svcw]

You are seriously deranged.

[svcw]

Well, stated
