Believe it or not an lds person recommended freerepublic to me and I've enjoyed the discussions and posts. But the constant anti LDS stream is irritating. I challenge anyone to find a more patriotic, hard working, generous group of people. Of course I've found God fearing good people in all religions I've worked with. Why all the hate here? I'd venture to say that a large percentage of visitors here are LDS. I suggest that it is time for all of them to find another web page to support or make a new one. I know I'll be looking. Time to move on.

Believe it or not an lds person recommended freerepublic to me and I've enjoyed the discussions and posts...I suggest that it is time for all of them to find another web page to support or make a new one. I know I'll be looking. Time to move on.

ALL: Time for a little truth in context here.

First of all..."Discussions?"

Really, Rockwarf, is that what you call your FR posting history? Discussions?

ALL: Rockwarf has yet to post twice in the same FR thread!

(Rockwarf, next you'll be telling us that drive-by shooters park their cars in the middle of the streets of the neighborhoods they shoot up)

ALL: You see, Rockwarf posted once in 2007...for the ENTIRE year;
He barely got a post in before 2008 expired;
He didn't post at all in 2009;
He made up for 2009 tho -- keeping his one-post-per year average -- by posting twice in 2010;
He posted once in 2011...keeping that average going;
He kept his annual post going in 2012...getting one in for November;
He doubled his posts in 2012...a grand total of two;
And then this was the third post he's contributed in 2014.

Gee, Rockwarf. I don't know what FR is going to do with that massive vacancy you've left? Who's going to come along and provide another less-than-a-dozen posts over eight years to fill that gigantic gap you're leaving?

But the constant anti LDS stream is irritating...I'd venture to say that a large percentage of visitors here are LDS. I suggest that it is time for all of them to find another web page to support or make a new one.

Rockwarf, why not just say all of US -- (vs. sounding like you're some non-Mormon by using the word "THEM"?)?

Per Rockwarf's Feb 2013 post: "I'm LDS...
Post #29

(Rockwarf, you weren't trying to cater to the "I'm siding with the Lds via sympathy appeal" angle, were you? I mean, of course you're siding with the Lds! You're Lds!)

Finally, note that Rockwarf...like so many Mormons who have waded thru FR...don't ever seemingly want to engage on these issues. It's much, much easier to simply call the person who disagrees with them an ad-hominem "hater" -- and then just storm out of the room, screeching, "y'all come with me!"

I mean, you would think with so many of them having served two-year missions and having engaged in many discussions with people of other faiths, that they'd be better equipped to dialog. And to focus on the topic. The Mormon claims. What the scriptures say. Etc.

But that's just it: The Mormon Church doesn't equip its missionaries to dialog; rather it's proselytize. And, having dealt with many Lds missionaries, the tendency is that if you don't show an extended interest in becoming one of their belt notches, they move on to a weaker spiritual soul. One who's vulnerable.

You should have been here 5 years ago; when the preening arrogance of our LDS posters got so bad the owner of this site had to step in and rebuke them!
