New Mormon anti-freeper site and campaign to bankrupt FR

rumor mill | March 29, 2009 | Jim Robinson

[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.

You’re right! Good point! The Lord was my mentor. You seem to be coming around. Really, I’ got to go now.

Think of the humiliation when our special salt and pepper passing rituals have been exposed to public view.

I see you have much to learn from our mormon FRiends...have you nevah heard of the "abuse" button????

[marshmallow]

Perhaps. But your post didn't come in as one addressed to "ALL." If you had done this, your above comment would make more sense. But the fact is you singled out two posters who do tend to dialogue. Therefore, your characterization of their posts was not reflective of how they operate.

I didn't single out anyone. They singled me out. My original post on this thread (# 975) was a general comment directed to the originator of the thread. Two posters (the ones whom you mention) took issue with it and I responded.

Apollos "spoke boldly" and "vigorously refuted" the Jews. (Why is it you seem to hone in on words that only match your previous parameters?) Are you going to claim that Apollos went beyond your comfortability "keyword" level? Or is it simply easier for you to tangle with posters in here than for you to concede that you're uncomfortable with the approach Apollos took in Acts 18?

As did Jesus and the rest of the apostles. He (and they) also moved on when it was apparent that hearts were hardened to the message.

Let's not try to spin "vigorously refuted" and "spoke boldly" into a daily, repetitive slanging match though, OK? Both of those terms can be happily encompassed in the scope of a respectful, thoughtful debate.

As a convert, Reno232, maybe you don’t know as much about Mormonism as you think you do. You really think Mormon church leaders are going to tell you about ALL of the tenets of Mormonism?

[Osage Orange]

You don't read very good do you........

You didn't recognize your mentor........

Narrow is the way.....

Wide is the other way.....

[delacoert]

he's doing it from an IP address at *************. I suspect that it's probably delacoert, the most anti of the antis. Even if it's not him, there's an anti stationed at an Army base, using a government network...

LOL.

Guess I should stop using my top secret Area 51 ip address and switch to the one I have at CIA headquarters.

Now I can use a most excellent tagline: the most anti of antis.

Now I’m worried about what’s going to come out about my underwear. Okay, they’re old man boxers and I pull them up just below my... ahem! nipples

[fproy2222]

More obfuscation and misdirection, I see. Not to mention outright misrepresentation of my post.

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

Looks like you are coming down on the side that thinks the end justifies the means.

[SENTINEL]

Hey Reno,

I was a bishopric member and High Priest. What is your highest calling ?

Have you been to the temple ?

[humblegunner]

I have not learned HMTL

It's all right here:

[SENTINEL]

We told you before, what we are posting is mainly for the lurkers to protect them from the LDS missionaries and their 12-step Cult snagging program.

[fproy2222]

I’m not covering for anyone, and I don’t even know what you’re talking about.

+++++++++++++++++=

Then go back and learn before you but in.

You actions here are the same as a group of posters that is trying to cover up how another poster used a lie to prove my Church is wrong.

I makes it look like you are helping them.

[P-Marlowe]

We told you before, what we are posting is mainly for the lurkers to protect them from the LDS missionaries and their 12-step Cult snagging program.

They snag Catholics too.

[1000 silverlings]

Two posters (the ones whom you mention) took issue with it and I responded.

Right, you said evangelicals were no different from Islamaniacs and you expect us to go..."Oh, okay, whatever you say mushmellow, sorry"

[broncobilly]

Elsie, why don't you sit down, take a deep breath, and think. Every Protestant believes the Catholic Church is wrong. If they didn't believe the Catholics were apostates, there would never have been any Protestants. That is what the word “Protestant” means. Every Catholic believes the Protestants are wrong. In other words, every Protestant, Mormon, and Catholic believes that the other two groups are WRONG!
Anything you say about Mormons in this regard can be said about all the others. and you can say it about yourself.

You are more interested in attacking Mormons than you are interested in being intelligent and consistent.

If you would only look at the present political scene you would realize there are so many more important issues to get worked up about.

You have been on this “tic” for a long time. Get over it and move on.

Ping

I wish I had the Imnan ping list. I'm kind of proud of my new title.

"You actions here are the same as a group of posters that is trying to cover up how another poster used a lie to prove my Church is wrong."

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black....

Mormon Apostle Orson Pratt wrote: "The gates of hell have prevailed and will continue to prevail over the Catholic Mother of Harlots, and over all her Protestant Daughters;...the apostate Catholic church, with all her popes and bishops, together with all her harlot daughters shall be hurled down to hell.. ." (Pamphlets by Orson Pratt, p.112).

Mat 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

Mar 13:31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

Luk 21:33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

Mormon hypocrisy acesndeth up forever and ever.

[1000 silverlings]

And like I said, We're not the ones cozying up to Islam which sent you into a tither

[SENTINEL]

Go ahead and explain what you mean. Prove to the world that I am lying !

How convenient for you to hide behind the fig leafed apron of "sacredness".

[fproy2222]

Because greg west has involved JR in this, and since you are a recent member of SPAM, we should know where you stand on this issue - JR or greg west?

++++++++++

It is not a question of JR or Greg West. I believe JR and Greg West are both for the truth.

My stance is clear.

Ya’ll may teach the differences between our beliefs with my blessings.

I will do what I can to show how some choose not to use the truth when trying to prove my Church is wrong.

I get upset when I see untruths repeated over and over as if they were true, even after being shown to be untrue. There is enough differences in our beliefs that ya’ll do not have to make up, and/or repeat thing that are not true to show the differences.
