However, when criticism is offered in anger and hate, it is a very different animal and is glaringly obvious and recognizable in tone and intent from the former. There is no obvious concern for the person being criticized. And when the critic has a history of antagonism, no criticism, no matter how sincere the critic may be, will not be received well by its intended target.

This holier-than-thou preaching from the self-proclaimed lofty perch by some people on this thread is getting REAL tiresome....some of you must think there is no record of your OWN words on this site. For example.....

"Do as I say, not as I do" seems to be the word of the day as sent down by Salt Lake.

In response to your little homily at the end, try Matthew 7:3

Good for you Reaganesque I missed that post!

Why should it irk some if you stand up for what you know and believe.

If Mitt was Harry Reid we would also crucify him.

They can’t have it both ways seeing that we are revolted by Reid and cheer Mitt because he is a conservative.

The LDS should feel flattered that some are so invested as to keep an archived on us.

Just think about this who really are the antagonist, thin skin etc does a stalker qualify?

Did SOMEone say...

 
 

MORMON
ATTITUDES OF SUPERIORITY
 

 1. I’m Superior; I have a special gift of the holy Ghost - you don’t!
 2. I’m Superior; I have God’s true priesthood power - you don’t!
 3. I’m Superior; I can go in God’s secret Temple - you can’t!
 4. I’m Superior; I’ve been Endowed with special Gifts and Knowledge - you’re just normal!
 5. I’m Superior; I’ll have my family with me in heaven - you’ll be with strangers!
 6. I’m Superior; I’m becoming a God - you aren’t!
 7. I’m Superior; My women know their place as servants of man and yours don’t.
 8. I’m Superior; YOUR creeds are wrong because they come from man - mine comes from God (you can find each one printed in our Scriptures).
 9. I’m Superior; I don’t HAVE a creed - I’ve got 13 Articles of Faith.
10. I’m Superior; I have four standard works and you only have one — in as far as it is translated correctly.
11. I’m Superior; I can lie with impunity about such things as church membership, church growth, church doctrine, church history, church influence, etc. — and you can’t.
12. I’m Superior; I am right (everybody knows) when I say 'evangelical' Christians are lunatics --
                        -- You’re a hideous narrow-minded bigot, who is persecuting me by practicing discrimination by saying I'm not  a Christian.
13. I’m Superior; I have a Living Prophet who talks to god every day — you have a dim-witted hireling of Satan who only talks to himself.
14. I’m Superior; I have magic underwear to protect me from the bogey man and you don’t.
15. I’m Superior; I have secret clasps and grips to give the angel so I get admitted to the celestial kingdom — you don’t so you can’t.
16. I’m Superior; I will see Joseph Smith setting on the right hand of GOD, when I get to Mormon heaven, and he will recognize me and judge me favorably —
                        -- You’re  on your own; when you get to wherever you’re going!
17. I’m Superior; I’m going to hie to Kolob while you’re going to who knows where.
18. I’m Superior; I get to have a harem and act like a celestial stud for time and all eternity and you don’t.
19. I’m Superior; I have sun stones, moon stones, sky stones, cloud stones, Saturn stones, and the evil eye of Osirus guarding my temple — all you have is a stupid cross.
20. I’m Superior; My church has billions in assets stashed away and yours has taken a stupid vow of poverty.
