What interests me is the garbage that has been showing up on FR lately. I am concerned that the there seems to be more and more religious bigotry and sniping on FR...this narrow minded crap only makes it more difficult to get other people to come to our site...

IOW, some posts and or threads didn't pass the Prokopton Kommittee on Proper Posted Propaganda, eh? Well, Komrade, Velcome to Free Republic!

And as for your name-calling geared toward what some FREEPERS write..."garbage"..."crap"...do you always go around accusing FREEPERS of dealing in gutters & sewers?

Tell us ALL: Why are you so intolerant and -- to use one of your own phrases -- "narrow-minded" toward what some FREEPERS write? Let's see what does that word mean you used..."bigotry"...doesn't that mean "intolerance?"

Wanna tell us where you bought your license for being intolerant toward others? Aren't you guilty of the very same thing you accuse others of?

If you're such a model of "tolerance," wow! (I didn't see it on your posts here) Why not?

Here's another example: You accuse unknown FREEPERS as being guilty of "sniping." Now aren't you guilty of "sniping," too? Is that "license" only issued for you?

Or, are you just going to tell us that since you weren't sniper-firing on any specific FREEPER, you were only generically "shotgunning" MANY unknown FREEPERS?

And if new posters think that their "free" posts are going to be "shotgunned" and labeled as "garbage" and "crap" by the likes of posters like yourself, tell us something: Do you think that encourages people to post their opinions, or does it tend to just shut them down?

The other thing is you're starting to confuse us: I mean, we don't know where to believe your liberal personal standards of "tolerance" -- your preaching on them, that is -- or your behavior...what you generically label unknown FREEPERS?

Don’t you have something better to do with your time? [Prokopton's post #14]

Good question: "Don't you," Prokopton, "have something better to do with your time?" than to accuse people's keyboards of being part of a sewer system?

I don’t see how knowing these “facts” will make me a better person or, for that matter, a BETTER Christian. [Post #14]

Well, let's break that comment down. You're addressing it to Delacoert, who's just addressed Mormons. So, in context, you are now claiming that Mormons = "Christians."

Was that your implication? Sure seems like it was; but please clarify if it wasn't.

IF it was...
...may I recommend you see “We're Christians just like you!”

There's Bill McKeever lists a lot of essential beliefs of Mormons. And, if, say, you're a self-professed Christian - and Mormons are, too...then that must mean you believe a LOT (not all) of the same things Mormons do!

[Hey, if Mormons = Christians, hey, with advocates abroad like yourself, no wonder people slide down a religious Bahai-like pathway where they run everything together about God and begin to conclude a fundamentalist Mormon-is-a-Mormon-is-a-Christian-is-a-Jonestownite-is-a-Branch-Davidian-is-a-Heavens-Gate-ian-is-a-Urantia believer-is a Church Universal & Triumphant-is-a-Wicca-Witch-is-Voodoo practioner-is-a-New-Ager-is-a-whirling dervish-is-a-Hindu-is-a-Sikh-is-a-Muslim! (I just don't want to hear you ever complain when somebody "confuses" a fundamentalist polygamist Mormon with a mainstream Mormon...to be consistent, ya know.) “
