I started to answer that I don't feel that I bash anyone, but that is untrue. I really detest democrats, anti-American peaceniks, elitists, socialists, so-called environmentalists , people who want to take away private property rights, or any of my constitutional rights.
I really detest people who hate Jews. Or people who think they are the real Jews, and the ones in Israel are imposters.I have a hard time being silent about these issues.

Is that what you call bashing?

Truth is, I like Mormons, and have many close friends, and allies who are Mormons. We agree on many of the issues listed above.

I am offended that Mormons are allowed to call my GOD a false God

My "rant" as you call it was against that brutal, uncaring and hateful creation that you call "god. Not against the REAL God. ." by Illbay, to a Christian.

What is wrong with answering this?

we believe that there are at least 4 people right now who God allowed to 'tarry in the flesh' on the earth until the second coming. They were alive long before 1833 and still are.

Why would discussing Mormon doctrine as it is relevant to current events be off limits? Like in the Smart case?

Why are Mormons able to bash Jews? Illbay does it regularly, and he is one that hits the abuse button when anyone wants to bring out weird Mormon doctrines.

Many of us are very acquainted with Mormon doctrine from birth. It has affected our lives, and our history. Its very hard to sit back and see these people have an uncensored pulpit, to win converts to a religion we consider to be very oppressive, and very false.

Would it help if I went through the threads and tattled every time one of them said very ugly things about us, or our God?

Good grief. Work it out for yourselves. I can't solve your problems. Just quit trashing each other and or trashing the other guy's religion. It ain't rocket science and it ain't that complicated and it's not an unreasonable request.

Jim out!

You people consistently begin your "rebuttal" of "Mormonism" by stating that we "don't worship the 'real' Christ."

The comment to which you refer was, I believe, made by me, to the effect that a god whose creatures are brought into existence without their consent, and are then hated by him, save a few only whom he "saves" according to his arbitrary pleasure, is not a god in whom I believe, nor who is owed my adoration.

Sorry if you choose to be offended by that. It is my opinion, just as it is your opinion that I do not believe in "the real Christ."

But remember: You are the one who made an issue of it first. I have just responded with my own opinions.
