Just responding to the headline: Why would I hate mormons? I do however loath mormonISM.
Ahh, my dear svcw, did you forget that; according to the many who are incapable of comprehension, that any who dare to disagree with the Restored® church’s doctrine must also hate those who follow it? It only follows no?
It’s really sad that so many have willingly bought into political correctness, that it’s no longer permissible to disagree with someone or something. It must be bigotry, hatred, etc. That’s the only “logical” reason why someone would have a “disagreement”.
Alinsky Rules for radicals #13.
Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. In conflict tactics there are certain rules that [should be regarded] as universalities. One is that the opposition must be singled out as the target and ‘frozen.’...
“...any target can always say, ‘Why do you center on me when there are others to blame as well?’ When your ‘freeze the target,’ you disregard these [rational but distracting] arguments.... Then, as you zero in and freeze your target and carry out your attack, all the ‘others’ come out of the woodwork very soon. They become visible by their support of the target...’
“One acts decisively only in the conviction that all the angels are on one side and all the devils on the other.”
IOW, get your opponent to defend themselves from false accusations, taking them off the topic at hand.
