That's correct..you have no idea, not even close.
My statement was not deranged in the least bit. It stands on the knowlege of understanding what evil is and those who permote it's teachings.
We know what Islam is...they are straight forward about who they are and their beliefs. Mormons hide under the mask of deception and falsehood. But both have agendas that are not in the interest of this country but of their political agenda.....and those agendas are indeed evil....as well as there leaderships who promte them.
What can you expect, atheists are crazy.
I know you can’t understand that, but my faith comes before my politics.
Passing judgement is determining whether or not a person is a good person or a bad person.

Labeling someone as ‘deranged’ is also passing judgement. Or are you the typical lib who thinks it is ok for YOU to pass judgement but not anyone else?
So you don’t see how people who devoutly believe and practice an EVIL religion could possibly be evil themselves?
Regarding Mormons, I have been there, I know what lies underneath that ‘clean, wholesome’ exterior. I know their motives because I know what they are taught their motives are to be.
You couldn’t possibly understand unless you’ve been there.
You can do whatever the hell you like. I don't care.

It's a judgement on their mental state, but I'm withholding judgement on character. Although it doesn't reflect well on anyone's character to express hatred for billions of people because they practice a different religion.
I can understand your point about only voting for Christians, even though I don't agree with it. But do you really want to come down on the side of a person who says that all Mormons and Muslims are evil and bad for their country? Is that really the kind of person you are?
You obviously do not grasp the Christian concept of what Evil is.
If you did, you would understand where we are coming from.
I find that most people, including Christians who believe in Levitical law, are good people despite their religion.
So while I believe Scientology is evil, I don't believe all, or most, or even a large majority of them, are evil.

Which explains why you don’t get it. If we were born good, then why is there evil?
One of the most damnable heresies is that man is innately good. We are evil to the core left to our own devices.
Can I ask if you grew up in any particular religion?

That's your opinion. I don't subscribe to or endorse the concept.
I'm well versed in Christian theology, but don't believe that just because it's your 'religious belief' immunizes you from the basic reason and having to defend your point of view.
I do not under any circumstances think that your religious belief is beyond criticism. Quite the opposite in fact, especially when religious belief is used to foment hatred towards other people, or in caww's case, billions of people.
Always find “I don't have a dog in this fight but here is my pup...” crowd funny...
The recent Warren Jeff thing does not help him either
(Nice parsing...after all, it is people who make statements...statements don't materialize on their own...unless you're talking about the book of Daniel in the Old Testament...where the ruler literally saw the "handwriting on the wall"...so unless you're talking about a "handwriting on the wall" situation...sorry...people utter statements)
Not sure if you're competitive yet with Clintonian kinds of parsing...like...that depends upon what the meaning of the word is is...
I judge that your definition is MIGHTY limited.
Not satisfied that EVIL is failing to get traction?
Ratchet it on up to HATRED then!
JUDGING from your posts; you DO care.
Perhaps you have a mental derangement that needs diagnosed...
I just LOVE the smell of a good oxymoron in the afternoon!
Your HATRED for Scientology is showing...
I don’t think the Mormon Church made Mitt weird. I think he was just born weird.
Where’s Maggie when you need an unbiased reply?
