Although there are threads that criticize the Methodist Church, you don’t hear us complain that we are being repressed. We can defend our faith and if we disagree with the church, we will voice that disagreement without reservation. I’ve seen Presbyerians voice disagreement with their church. And Catholics. And Baptists.

But I have never seen a Mormon voice a disagreement with their church.

Do you voice a disagreement with the Lord?

LDS believe this is the Lord’s restorted Church!

That is because they will be excommunicated.

I would believe Logophile would be an exception. He has expressed displeasure with the major changes in Mormon practices and theology that deviate from traditional Mormon beliefs and practices.

He is still wrong about the Mormon church, but I think he is at least honest about his beliefs.

You apparently have never visited my Ward. Ha! And the other day, oh, I wanted a cup of coffee sooooo bad.

You need to hang out at some LDS chat rooms!

OFFICIALLY they are taught NEVER to criticize leadership; even if it is WRONG!

 

 
 Remember fellow Christians: 
the Mormon's criticize US because they've been taught that they CAN'T criticize ANY of their leaders; so they HAVE to vent somehow!
 
 
 
Don't criticize?

 
Dallin H. Oaks, Mormon Apostle
 
 
 
Oh, they can say that their leaders were NOT speaking for GOD when they said ___________ but that's NOT the same as criticizing!
