Good luck with the sanctimony of SkyPilot! (He'll never hear you.)

I don't accept everything that "people" claim. Further, since I don't know you, neither am I surprised by you.
Unfortunately, even in Texas, it takes nearly 20 years to execute a murderer.
Here is a link to a very thorough article on the FLDS and their move into Eldorado, and some predictions of what may happen there, for example:
"He said the temple rising in Texas could be linked to Jeffs’ apocalyptic preaching as well as his sense of himself as the final Mormon prophet.
“Warren has predicted the end of the world twice already this year. He’s also said that ‘the destructions’ will come sometime between the laying of the cornerstone and the completion of the temple,” he said.
“I believe those who say the temple is patterned after the Nauvoo temple, which brackets the death of Joseph Smith and the exodus (of the Mormons) to Utah from Nauvoo. So you can read all this disturbing stuff into it, these apocalyptic underpinnings,” he said.
“He compares himself to Joseph Smith at Nauvoo. Smith was martyred (there), and Warren sees himself as a victim and a martyr, and it’s all coinciding with God’s plan for destruction,” he said.
One excommunicated follower who asked not to be named said, “I think personally, an analogy to Jim Jones would be closer than one to David Koresh. He won’t go out guns firing. It will be suicide.”
“And if he gets backed into too bad a corner, he’ll take them all with them, those that will go,” he said of the faithful. Full article
True.
We’re down to 7-10 years and as little as 5 now.
Man, do even read what I write? I am trying to figure out of you have some sort of comprehension problem, or are simply only reading the portions you WANT to see.
I already stated I have NOTHING against any denomination, including baptists. Actually that is not COMPLETELY true... I am NOT real fond of Mormons whom I believe to be following a false doctrine. If I have a bias, it is against the Mormons, and in favor of law enforcement.
What I am trying to point out is the fact that it will take only ONE juror who DOES have a problem with baptists to set these guys free.
What I have a problem is law enforcement conducting raids in a manner which provides evidence for the defense.
I WANT to see these guys busted if they are, in fact, guilty. I do NOT wanna see them walk because of an APPEARANCE of collusion between authorities and the baptist church. I currently attend a methodist church, and would feel the same way if it were METHODIST buses.
Conducting a bust is not the solution, nor the end of the story. SUCCESSFUL CONVICTION is.... THAT is what I want.
Good point!
In your own words... Prove it.
;)
Careful. I'll tell Chuck Smith on you.
You made that point. Several times. Now what? Look, I’m sorry they didn’t call you first. Hopefully they will rectify this egregious wrong somehow. We can only pray.
Children being abused is another matter. Show me where I said differently.
Good luck with the sanctimony of SkyPilot! (He'll never hear you.)
I never said that collusion was actually going on, in fact I clearly stated I do not believe that to be the case.
BUT, it only takes ONE juror who believes it for the guy to walk. Guilty men walk every day, for a lot less.
Thanks for the update.
It is if they are under 18.
Children being abused is another matter. Show me where I said differently.
Define children.
I think you suggested that if the parents are ok with it, then 14 years is just fine with you.
Have a good day :)
Still your problem read the OT!
I’m sorry. You’re going to have to spell it out for me. I not following.
Are you saying it’s my problem the BOM contradicts the bible?
