She is getting it from the lies the LDS church tells about the Catholics and other Christian groups to their members.
It is a typical pat response the LDS give. They never bother to look anything up, if they do they leave like me.
How have you been, sister?
good point! She doesn’t know anything about Christianity either. sigh.
Do you really think that you are protecting people from Mormonsim by constantly denigrating them, making jokes about them and just plain old insulting them? To tell you the truth, I was never very enthralled with Mormonism after reading the book, Shot Through the Heart, but you people have made me take another look and forgive some of their eccentricities and silly traditions and beliefs.
I have to tell you that it doesn’t come off as any altruistic intention. It looks like anger and hate to outsiders. You all just seem to get too much giddy pleasure out of insulting the Mormons. The anti-Mormon Crusade looks no different from a bunch of old Klu Klux Klanners would have looked to outsiders, nothing but hatred all balled up inside all of you. It’s not a pretty site.
You do not know my heart and you cannot read my mind. You are deceived about my Church. I do not belong to a cult and I am not brainwashed.

I do not know your heart or can read your mind, but I do KNOW what your church teaches and Mormonism is a cult (all 3 disciplinary definitions - religion, high demand group, and theological cult) and I have experienced the brainwashing firsthand so I know it happens and I know that most members deny they are brainwashed (I did to when I was Mormon). Only after they get out do they see the forest clearly.
I love you anyway, Sandy, enough to keep trying to tell you the truth and to point out what LDS leaders teach/have taught.
Ok ok wait. You read a book and realized that mormonISM was not Christianity but because people on FR are exposing mormonISM and it apparently makes you angry, you have now decided its a ok?
There is not a single anti-mormon post, there are many anti-mormonISM posts.
mormonISM is anti-Christian, it was founded on anti-Christianity......the fact you apparently now find it acceptable because you appear not to understand the difference between mormon and mormoNSIM is just plain strange.
To compare exposure of mormonISM with the KKK is just weird.
Joseph Smith would have been happy to be in the KKK as he was anti-Christian, anti-Jew and anti-black.

Typo but it made me giggle.
Actually read what is posted??!! What a novel idea for some of these ‘defenders’.
OY VEY!

Yes, because I have seen it over and over and over again, literally HUNDREDS of times. It is how I got out, and how many others, even other Freepers have gotten out of Mormonism.
I have also gotten many many Freepmails and emails from people who thank me and encourage me because my boldness has gotten them to research and see the errors of Mormonism and even a few who changed their mind about joining.
I have done this almost full time for about 10 years and yeah, I have protected people, and helped Mormons find Christ.
Spiritual warfare - which is what we do - isn’t pretty and again, a few people think like you, but many others do not and understand where I am coming from and why I do it.
So, if you think you are going to make me stop what God has called me to do and how He has called me to do it then you may have god complex yourself. I don’t answer to the likes of you. I answer to God and if HE wants me to change, HE will convict me of it.
So run along and let the big kids do the real work.
Chores of Babylon.......well considering how busy whores of the day were, I totally get it all could become a chore. ;-)
(Sorry, Elz just didn't realize that every Nov. 16 is "entertain Eva Day")
I’m working it, ain’t you?
LOL
Hey, I’m cherry pickin too.
I’ve seen all that spam stuff.../S
LOL
Perhaps if I knew what you consider to be offensive; I could moderate the facts that I post.
Will you be so kind as to point out the bad stuff?
"Now if any of you will deny the plurality of wives, and continue to do so, I promise that you will be damned;
and I will go still further and say, take this revelation, or any other revelation that the Lord has given,
and deny it in your feelings, and I promise that you will be damned.
Brigham Young - JoD 3:266 (July 14, 1855)
But the point is why do you continually try to tear down The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints?
Saundra; you should about what your CHURCH's #2 Prophet has said about YOU; a WHOLE lot more than what we say about your lovely church.
Saundra; you KNOW that your church continually tries to 'tear down' the whole of Christianity, yet you wear the mantle of persecution on these threads.
You appear to be VERY ignorant of what your lovely church is built upon.
1. You cannot point to any 'incorrect' statements.
2. You continually IGNORE correct statements made by your lovely church's leaders.
We all want to know why.
FEEL?
Why?
I don’t lurk or even or post on Mormon or Catholic threads much. I’m not either. Did like Salt Lake and Rome, though, well, what I saw anyway, which wasn’t much.
I don’t set foot here because people end up in flame wars. I don’t learn anything.
Please stop trashing each other. I would like to think about the issues that either Mormons or those who are opposed want to talk about.
Yes, this is selfish on my part.
Huh?
I did not come up with #10 on my own: it's MORMON info; asked EVERY year to EVERY LDS member who wishes to get access to an LDS temple: the essential Temple Recommend card.
What kind of wood is this plank made from?
What are it's dimensions?
Would lusting after other men's wives be considered a PLANK?
