"This entire video was not mocking mormons is was mocking mormonISM." This is the same argument that the anti-war folks like to use, "I support the troops, but not the war." You can't have someone mock Mormonism and not be mocking Mormons because they believe it.

Why? I have mormon family and friends and would never mock them. I will mock mormonSIM because it is mockable. Your attempted analogy to troops/war doesn't work.

I want to welcome you, oneamericanvoice, in joining our discussion.

Through the years you've done yeoman's work on FR & @ rallies, etc. on behalf of our troops. I appreciate that. (And despite the uptick in honoring them the past decade, we can never seemingly do enough on their behalf!)

Anyway, I know you are sensitive to the anti-war arguments; and think you see a parallel there.

The way, though, that I might suggest you look @ svcw's comments would be a parallel one to homosexuality.

Some of us who have friends who are homosexual and former homosexuals. I am up front in my strong opposition to homosexuality; but that doesn't mean we don't love the homosexual as a person. (We do) IOW, one doesn't follow.

Pro-lifers can pray for those in the abortion industry; but be repulsed by the results of abortion.

I have relatives who are Lds; I myself am a descendent of Mormons. What I suggest that you consider is that one way we can love people is to not withhold the truth from them.

Thanks again, for adding your voice to this discussion. I appreciate you!
