New Mormon anti-freeper site and campaign to bankrupt FR
rumor mill | March 29, 2009 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 03/29/2009 2:35:03 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

I understand there is a new anti-freeper site started by disgruntled former and present Mormon FReepers and it is their intention of bankrupting FR during the coming Freepathon by withholding their donations and disrupting our activities. Well, all I can say is, if they feel that badly against FR, by all means they should withhold their donations and drop out of FR. But it they attempt to disrupt our operations I will guarantee they will no longer be members of FR. If that is their wish, so be it.

I'm not going to try to defend FR from their claims of religious persecution, but I will say that Mormons have and always have had free reign to post their threads on FR just as all other religious groups have enjoyed. Free Republic defends the right to freedom of religion and has always welcomed religious discussion and always will. And Mormons have always been welcome here. I have absolutely nothing against Mormons.

If you are one who has left or is leaving, I wish you well, but disruption of FR is not welcome and will not be tolerated.

And this is not the first time such activity has been attempted by groups of disgruntled former FReepers. Good luck with that. There is always some group that feels FR should be bent to their way of thinking and end up saying my way or the highway. Well, I don't know about you, but I'm not changing so I guess it's the highway. Is it Feb 8 yet?

God bless.

If the persecution fits you must acquit. :)

The Bible warns of false teachers who promote "another Jesus whom we have not preached" (2 Corinthians 11:4). The Apostle Paul warned the Corinthians not to believe everyone who preached "Jesus." The true Jesus was based on the tradition of apostolic preaching - the Jesus "we preached." Paul compared the preaching another Christ outside of that tradition with the deception of the serpent in the Garden of Eden (2 Corinthians 11:4, Genesis 3 1:4-5). In the same context, Paul warned the Church to beware of ".false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ" (2 Corinthians 11:13).

"There are those outside the Church who say Latter-day Saints do not believe in the traditional Christ. No, I don't. The traditional Christ of whom they speak is not the Christ of whom I speak.” – LDS President Gordon B. Hinckley (LDS Church News, June 20, 1998)

I don’t understand how you can claim posters here lie about what it is Mormons believe when you are either unable or unwilling to answer simple theological questions

The words of your religion say god is a man.

Yet you deny that.

Oh, that is not teaching.

Yet it is fact from the writings of your church.

Yes, that’s quite a little problem and a major difference from traditional Christian doctrine. Thus the claim that the bible has to be “interpreted correctly”, which only the Mormons are able to do, according to them.

I will wait until all this flap dies down to decide if Greg West is out to distroy FR, or if it is just some posters trying to raise his activities to that level; as a way to cover up a passable embarrassing source of truth to there activities.

Fred, you can log onto greg west's site all you want, read all you want and if you are honest about it, you will agree with JR. AFA some posters you really ought to read who this thread was started by Fred - JR himself. Because I can tell you that I am fairly confident that he will not agree one iota with your assessment

Are you actually saying what it LOOKS like you are saying? "or a way to cover up a passable embarrassing source of truth to if it is just some posters trying to raise his activities to that level; as as a way to cover up a passable embarrassing source of truth to there activities."

Explain what THIS accusation is supposed to mean, Fred.

but it is a lie and it makes readers believe that we teach that God is only a man

You say that, no one else does. "Only a man"

So you twist words into what was NOT said, and say that is what was said.

You are a liar and a proponent of a false religion and wish others to join so they may meet eternal damnation with any that do not reject the false teachings of Mormonism

You have done much to prove that your religion is wrong and not of God, yet you choose to stay in bondage to it.

You can be freed.

“Can you really believe that?

Since you specifically ask, Fred, yes. It is very easy
to see what your posts are doing.

++++++++++++

You show a lack of desire for understanding what you are writing about.

I asked you if you really believed what P-Marlowe had said, not what I said.

Instead you say a bunch of stuff about what I am doing that misses the mark.

You even implyed I did not say what I said about man growing into his Godhood.

and a bunch of other stuff.

Given what I have been talking about, it can only be seen as another attempt to divert the readers attention from how a poster changed a single word to make a claim that we teach something that we do not teach.

Do you think it is right for your fellow Christian to use a lie to prove something you believe in?

Are you sure it isn’t Society for the Propagation of Ass Magnets?

One day someone will have to help me understand how your form of name calling helps.

Well good.

I think.

The three of so that fit the description of that site are minuscule compared to the good souls that are trying to show you the way out of the darkness into the folds of true Christianity.

Post to me when you have left that spam anti-freeper site with a healthy condemnation of it and then when you leave the apostate false religion of Mormonism
