Oh I care about Elsie. She/he is a FReeper so I must care.
And it's pretty hard not to respond when you get the "new posts alert" in glaring red. But I will agree with one thing, spelling and context aren't all "their" cracked up to be (one of the most common errors)...oh, and then and than.
Its/it's all just kids havin' fun.
An top o’ the mornin’, and blessings on ye this foine day!
The bones of Smith are a-moulderin’ in his grave
While sleepers arise to the Son, mighty to save.
Bless You, Lord, for Coffee and th’ beans thereof!
A foine earthy expression of Thy boundless Love.
S L U R P . . .
Ahhh I feel the Spirit risin’ in me bones already ;^)
LOL...and please Lord, help me make that winning 3 foot putt.
Be centered in where you stand
See your end goal with a calm mind
And commit, the action arising of itself.
Be honest tallying the score, and winners buy the first round.
(Actually my experience ends at goofy golf, but I tend to think deep thoughts while aiming for a clown’s mouth)

oh well, yes, that too.
Jim Furyk should have taken your advice when he played the 18th hole yesterday. Going into the final hole leading the tournament, he pull hooked his drive into the water, re-teed and sliced his 3rd shot into the bleachers, bottom line result..triple bogey. If he had taken your advice, Be centered in where you stand, See your end goal with a calm mind, And commit, the action arising of itself. Be honest tallying the score,
He was honest in tallying the score.
That's the kind of golf I can identify with.
JESUS: Hey Smith! Remember that boast you made about doing more than even I had done to hold the 'church' together?
JOSEPH SMITH: Where am I?
JESUS: Don't you remember? A few seconds ago you were in that jail.
JOSEPH SMITH: Oh; yeah; but where am I NOW?
JESUS: Don't you remember? Does bang - bang ring a bell?
JOSEPH SMITH: Oh; yeah - that crummy gun I had was about USELESS!
JESUS: I hope you left instructions on how to hold your church together.
JOSEPH SMITH: Dang! I knew there was SOMETHING I was forgetting!
JESUS: Looks like there's a power struggle going on down there.
JOSEPH SMITH: Yeah; there was always SOMEone who wanted the power that I held - especially over the LADIES - wink wink.
JESUS: No need to worry about that now; remember what my friend Matthew wrote down?
JOSEPH SMITH: This? “At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven” (Matthew 22:30)
JESUS: That's it.
JOSEPH SMITH: I thought that was mistranslated.
JESUS: Nah - it was right.
JOSEPH SMITH: Oh well; it was fun while it lasted. My buds will still get it on with the girls.
JESUS: Uh; I'm sorry; in just a few more years; your followers will cavein to the United States government and abandon the 'Eternal Covenant' that you came up with.
JOSEPH SMITH: ME!? YOU are the one that told me to do that!
JESUS: Sorry; but you must have mistranslated what I told you. What part of Do NOT commit ADULTERY did you not understand?
JOSEPH SMITH: mumble....
JESUS: What did you say?
JOSEPH SMITH: Oh, nothing.
JESUS: Well; it was interesting talking to you; but now I must get back to perparing a place for those who believe in Me.
JOSEPH SMITH: Oh, yeah; the Celestial Kingdom.
JESUS: No...
JOSEPH SMITH: The Telestial one?
JESUS: Nope.
JOSEPH SMITH: SUREly not the TERRESTRIAL one!!
JESUS: Nope. Didn't you read that the mind of man had NOT conceived of it? Paul wrote it down in 1 Corinthians 2:9.
JOSEPH SMITH: I thought that was mistranslated.
JESUS: No; it wasn't.
JOSEPH SMITH: You SURE?
JESUS: Yes. Now I must be going: what did you say your name was again?
JOSEPH SMITH: Joseph Smith.
JESUS: Hmmmm. According to my Heavenly FAITHbook, you didn't sign in as one of my friends - sorry, I never knew you.
JOSEPH SMITH: But....
Speaking of moldy bones....
The Nephites gather to the land of Cumorah for the final battles—Mormon hides the sacred records in the hill Cumorah—The Lamanites are victorious, and the Nephite nation is destroyed—Hundreds of thousands are slain with the sword. About A.D. 385.
1 And now I finish my record concerning the destruction of my people, the Nephites. And it came to pass that we did march forth before the Lamanites.
2 And I, Mormon, wrote an epistle unto the king of the Lamanites, and desired of him that he would grant unto us that we might gather together our people unto the land of Cumorah, by a hill which was called Cumorah, and there we could give them battle.
3 And it came to pass that the king of the Lamanites did grant unto me the thing which I desired.
4 And it came to pass that we did march forth to the land of Cumorah, and we did pitch our tents around about the hill Cumorah; and it was in a land of many waters, rivers, and fountains; and here we had hope to gain advantage over the Lamanites.
5 And *when three hundred and eighty and four years had passed away, we had gathered in all the remainder of our people unto the land of Cumorah.
6 And it came to pass that when we had gathered in all our people in one to the land of Cumorah, behold I, Mormon, began to be old; and knowing it to be the last struggle of my people, and having been commanded of the Lord that I should not suffer the records which had been handed down by our fathers, which were sacred, to fall into the hands of the Lamanites, (for the Lamanites would destroy them) therefore I made this record out of the plates of Nephi, and hid up in the hill Cumorah all the records which had been entrusted to me by the hand of the Lord, save it were these few plates which I gave unto my son Moroni.
7 And it came to pass that my people, with their wives and their children, did now behold the armies of the Lamanites marching towards them; and with that awful fear of death which fills the breasts of all the wicked, did they await to receive them.
8 And it came to pass that they came to battle against us, and every soul was filled with terror because of the greatness of their numbers.
9 And it came to pass that they did fall upon my people with the sword, and with the bow, and with the arrow, and with the ax, and with all manner of weapons of war.
10 And it came to pass that my men were hewn down, yea, even my ten thousand who were with me, and I fell wounded in the midst; and they passed by me that they did not put an end to my life.
11And when they had gone through and hewn down all my people save it were twenty and four of us, (among whom was my son Moroni) and we having survived the dead of our people, did behold on the morrow, when the Lamanites had returned unto their camps, from the top of the hill Cumorah, the ten thousand of my people who were hewn down, being led in the front by me.
12 And we also beheld the ten thousand of my people who were led by my son Moroni.
13 And behold, the ten thousand of Gidgiddonah had fallen, and he also in the midst.
14 And Lamah had fallen with his ten thousand; and Gilgal had fallen with his ten thousand; and Limhah had fallen with his ten thousand; and Jeneum had fallen with his ten thousand; and Cumenihah, and Moronihah, and Antionum, and Shiblom, and Shem, and Josh, had fallen with their ten thousand each.
15 And it came to pass that there were ten more who did fall by the sword, with their ten thousand each; yea, even all my people, save it were those twenty and four who were with me, and also a few who had escaped into the south countries, and a few who had deserted over unto the Lamanites, had fallen; and their flesh, and bones, and blood lay upon the face of the earth, being left by the hands of those who slew them to molder upon the land, and to crumble and to return to their mother earth.
16 And my soul was rent with anguish, because of the slain of my people, and I cried:
17 O ye fair ones, how could ye have departed from the ways of the Lord! O ye fair ones, how could ye have rejected that Jesus, who stood with open arms to receive you!
18 Behold, if ye had not done this, ye would not have fallen. But behold, ye are fallen, and I mourn your loss.
19 O ye fair sons and daughters, ye fathers and mothers, ye husbands and wives, ye fair ones, how is it that ye could have fallen!
20 But behold, ye are gone, and my sorrows cannot bring your return.
21 And the day soon cometh that your mortal must put on immortality, and these bodies which are now moldering in corruption must soon become incorruptible bodies; and then ye must stand before the judgment-seat of Christ, to be judged according to your works; and if it so be that ye are righteous, then are ye blessed with your fathers who have gone before you.
22 O that ye had repented before this great destruction had come upon you. But behold, ye are gone, and the Father, yea, the Eternal Father of heaven, knoweth your state; and he doeth with you according to his justice and mercy.
James 4:3
You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures.
“Where have you been Tula Git. Dang, you signed up in 2004 and haven’t posted here since 2005. What would you know about FreeRepublic, really?”
In fairness to Tula Git, I signed up in 2003 and skipped 5 or 6 years of posting. School, pre med etc, working 25 hours a day. I have free time for a couple of weeks now because of a cast on my leg, I do well to stand up.
I detest mormonism and all it stands for. I have monitored F.R. from time to time and in all those years I have never seen hatred expressed for individual mormons and some of them have been really nasty on these threads.
I do not like the republican candidate for many more reasons than his cult membership, his liberalism being a big concern.
I am graybeard58. I did not post the previous reply, my grand daughter Holly did. She failed to sign out and sign back in in her name. She’s staying with me a few weeks to recuperate.
She is member Holly_P.
I apologize for her mix up-—— It isn’t the first time.
I assure you, I have never been to med school.
My apologies as well. As Graybeard 58 said, “it isn’t the first time”.
Oh dear Elsie, you have absolutely no humor in your veins. Lighten up, get laid, do something!
I know; it likes to spend all it's time in my arteries, as there is more room to maneuver.
Man says leaders targeted writings on temple rituals, not his criticism of Romney.
(The 'man' SURELY cannot mean the UNSCRIPTURAL rituals that are performed in MORMON® temples; can he?)
Poor babies!
They come across just like MUSLIMs here!
Sacred my butt!
If they were REALLY 'sacred'; a halfway intelligent person would expect them to be found SOMEWHERE in MORMON scripture!
Resign from fakery. Huh?
