Lying about Christian beliefs is bigotry. Lying to innocents about the road to salvation is bigotry.
All one has to do is ask them to leave or say no.
All you have to do on FR is refrain from reading threads that do not suit your beliefs...no one is forcing you to do so..."All one has to do" is to ignore threads or say no without throwing the "bigot" card on every mormon thread and refrain from interpreting "my beliefs" when you have no insight into my mind.
BIGOTRY
Stubborn and complete intolerance of any creed, belief, or opinion that differs from one’s own.
How can teaching a person be intolerance.
I also can't see the lying.
I have said nothing about your beliefs here, grey, in fact I never addressed you at all until you addressed me.
I certainly do not play the “bigot” card on every thread either. Such generalizations and characterizations are demonstrably false.
As to lying about Christian beliefs...there you go again.
Missionaries go out all over the world in the name of Christ from many denominations in an effort to bring the Gospel of Christ to others. They all will terach and help anyone they can who will listen to their message and whi is in need of Chrst’s saving grace and atonement.
LDS missionaries do the same...simply because you do not agree with them, or me, does not make them or me liars. It’s this very tendanciy to jump to such negative claims that drive such attitudes.
For LDS the road to salvation is through Jesus Christ and Him crucified and Him alone. We believe what He said when He said, “if ye love me, keep my commandments.” We simply differ on what we think those commandments are. but His atonement and our acceptance of it is the key...without that, it does not matter what you or I do.
As to “simply refraiming from reading threads that do not suite your beliefs,” well, all I can say is that for you to say that to me, and in the next breath claim that I am “interpreting [i]your[/i] beliefs” somehow is pretty ironic to me.
Again, I never said anything about you or your beliefs with my original post. Just made the point that anyone who would castigate Rubio because as a child for a short time was LDS, IMHO simply is bigoted towards LDS.
When you challenged that statement, I simply asked if you agreed that someone should be catigated for what went on in their life as a child. Asking you a question, which you are free to answer either way is not interpreting your beliefs, it is simply asking where you stand and seeking for you to make your beliefs in the matter plain.
Have a great Sunday, grey. I sincerely pray your worsjip is gratifying and draws you closer to Christ, Jesus. We will be worshipping Him and growing closer to Him as well here in Idaho.
