You think Dobson said that Fred was “not a Christian”? Where do you get your news from? He didn’t say that. He admitted to a reporter that he didn’t know Fred’s spiritual state, that’s all.

Seems like it become a discussion on Mormonism. Certainly not my intent.

What do you expect??

In reply #3 an LDS member hopped in with a Romney comparison.

Using that old $1.5 million in tax dollars phoniness, hm? You know Robertson doesn’t take a salary with CBN, right? No, I guess you didn’t. Did you know that he personally has given well over $200 million to non-profits? No, I guess you didn’t. Don’t want to shatter your anti-Christian bent.

Why so anti-Christian, radioman? Did a Christian do you wrong one day?

LDS members are welcome here. But theological discussions are best in the religion forum. Personally, I don’t support Mitt or Fred, and it has nuttin to do with their religions or lack thereof.

I appreciate your continued efforts to speak the truth in the face of Joseph Smith’s lies. It befuddles me that people truly believe him to be a prophet of God, the one through whom God “corrected” the Church (meaning the body of Christians and Christendom). Spending some time researching the foundation of this cult would seem to be sufficient to turn someone away from Mormonism and toward the Lord.

I cannot disagree more staunchly. The church abandoned her responsibilities to the government. LBJ's War on Poverty was the culmination of the social gospel movement.

How nice that American church didn't have to deal with those distasteful poor people! They could focus on important things like building grand cathedrals and growing mega churches and even sending missionaries to poor countries instead of dealing with the filth in our own streets...

I don't see a taxation clause in the church's mandate. The church, as a whole, has sold their collective souls for tax exempt status. The funny thing is churches are automatically tax exempt. You don't even need to file for 501c3 status. The only "advantage" to this is the protection of assets for church officials.

There are still many individuals and churches working in the field, but, as a whole, the Church has little authority left in a sphere that is rightfully hers.

Well... it’s not in the RELIGION area yet, so it’s still ok to PERSONALLY zap each other.

Do you think this was a direct response to Dobson? If so, that’s a good thing that Dobson did there.

Yes and Yes.

There was an article not too long ago about Fred saying he attended church with his Mom when he visited her, but that otherwise he was not a church-goer.

Now certainly being in the garage doesn't make you a car; but, it's safe to say, that if you take an older-model car in say...say a high-hail damage area...

...and then tell me that said car never makes it into a home garage, a hometown parking garage, a hometown carwash, or any type of hometown "cover"...

...I think we can safely conclude that the car's owner has little respect for the damage that a "life of hail" (so to speak) can do to cars & just "shines" on protective covers...to the point that I as the owner's insurance agent could expect such a car to possibly being "salvaged" one day--possibly "salvaged" unto pieces--not necessarily "salvaged" unto restoration.

Heck!

He could only keep POLYGAMY, that great thing that insured women's salvation, for 47 years!

You’ve been warned before:

Quit using published LDS texts to show how complex our thinking is required to be!

Stop it. (You've been reading too many direct promise quotes that the dashing Joey-come-courter wielded to the families of the young ladies he propositioned).

Bwahahaha ... “But, but, but he didn’t have sex with anyone but Emma ‘cause we’ve been told to use that argument when Joey’s adulterous marriages to still married women arises. Now you’re confusing me ...” (channeling Mormon dudette)

I see the church as having forgotten what we were told to do...be salt and light unto this world. The church, sometime in the mid 1950’s, lost something. It became fat and happy. The church turned inwards and settled itself to just being there. The church didn’t put up much of a fight and before it was too late ungodly men were being elected, rights were being stripped away and abominations were being discovered as “constitutional” rights.

You always here about the “silent” majority. It’s the “silent” part that has gotten us into this mess we see today.

(You better be careful. You "channel" some folks too long, & the next thing ya know you've passed "beyond the veil" & that LDS spirit personality inside of you may just be able to talk his way past the LDS spirit-prison guards & then what? "Then what?" you say? Well, you just may wind up in polygamous Kolob Heights, with a mixture of 72 virgins AND non-virgins, all depending on how many are still sealing themselves to you even after your tombstone was erected).

(So much for Mormons pretending they think "polygamy" is purely a yester-year "concept")
