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.
Sure, but first I need the address of your cat...
my cat Ninja cat!
Posters of every ilk have been called trolls here, usually doesn't mean much except for the ocassional one that really is.
Heck, even Jim Robinson has been called a troll, newbie and disrupter here before!
LOL
I didn't get the memo either. This thread is the first I heard about it. Apparently I'm not mormon enough or something.
[Ping to this site to see your name listed as being a “Mormon-hater”.
>>From the responses generated by my replies, I was able to identify the following 24 anti-Mormons by user name. Those of you who know me from my writings here on S.P.A.M. know that I don’t use that moniker lightly. For me to label someone as anti-Mormon, they have to display a particular level of determination, obsession, hatred, or malevolence.

Actually, a fine group I am proud to call my own. There are two sides to the story. My fellows on the list do not operate out of hate but out of a true concern that allowing the peepstone prophecies of a counterfeiter/philanderer/secessionist-tinpot-general/false-prophet to go unchallenged as holy word could lead to the loss of souls in a wilderness of superstition.
Since we all take a great deal of unpaid heat for voicing our concerns, I suspect we act out of a deeper sense of love than those who would let someone pull the holy garments over the eyes of the unsuspecting.
Never go on their threads. Sad that they feel so vindictive.
And that would certainly be revolting! :)
I saw!
That makes me significant and I shall sleep well tonight! ;-)
I think that their theology is all messed up, but I do not *hate* Mormons. But they think that my theology is all messed up. Does that not then earn them the title of *Christian hater*?
But I guess for someone who wants to play the martyr, having someone think that you’re wrong is *hate*.

You’re a bad cat! I’m going to take you to the vet!
Dude, you're a troll and a Rush-worshipper.
So there! ;-)
Everyone wave to Mr Greg West.
Mr. West, you lose!
I like this little blurb at the end of his site. It sounds to me as if he is actually threatening JR and FreeRepublic. It reminds me of Joseph Smith destroying the printing press of the Nauvoo Expositor. Will they stop at nothing to keep their secrets?:
Why we do this... http://framreport.blogspot.com/2009/03/jim-robinson-of-fr-responds-on-impact.html
“And perhaps a committee can be appointed to find out these things, and to take statements and affidavits; and also to gather up the libelous publications that are afloat;
And all that are in the magazines, and in the encyclopedias, and all the libelous histories that are published, and are writing, and by whom, and present the whole concatenation of diabolical rascality and nefarious and murderous impositions that have been practised upon this people—
That we may not only publish to all the world, but present them to the heads of government in all their dark and hellish hue, as the last effort which is enjoined on us by our Heavenly Father, before we can fully and completely claim that promise which shall call him forth from his hiding place; and also that the whole nation may be left without excuse before he can send forth the power of his mighty arm.
It is an imperative duty that we owe to God, to angels, with whom we shall be brought to stand, and also to ourselves, to our wives and children, who have been made to bow down with grief, sorrow, and care, under the most damning hand of murder, tyranny, and oppression, supported and urged on and upheld by the influence of that spirit which hath so strongly riveted the creeds of the fathers, who have inherited lies, upon the hearts of the children, and filled the world with confusion, and has been growing stronger and stronger, and is now the very mainspring of all corruption, and the whole earth groans under the weight of its iniquity.
Doctrine and Covenants Section 123
The mods should adopt it, or add it. It seems much more concise than what they post.
My dog is quite interested in that too!
