Read the article TITLE, it isn’t about just giving money or even tithing, it is about giving them back door deals that weren’t ethical.

Yes, I do.

You honestly believe that?

How do I put this...when I think of a "prophet of God", I don't think of somebody who was elected by other men.

A prophet of God is not an elected position. It just doesn't work that way.

I'm reminded of several verses in the Bible that warns us against false prophets. Claiming that the head of your church and his closest advisers are prophets of God...I pray that Willard Romney does not get the nomination, but if he does, you all are going to be in for a ride when the MSM makes sure that the American public knows that Romney and other Mormons view the rulers of your church as prophets of God.

It will not go over well with evangelicals and other Christians.

And when I think of a BIBLICAL "prophet of God", I don't think of somebody who is vetted on everything by 12 YESmen!!



Let the record show the vote was unamimous.

When was the last time a MORMON "prophet of God" actually said,

"Thus saith the Lord."?


Warren Jeffs says it all the time!

  7. I’m Superior; My women know their place as servants of man and yours don’t.
  8. I’m Superior; YOUR creeds are wrong because they come from man - mine comes from God (you can find each one printed in our Scriptures).
  9. I’m Superior; I don’t HAVE a creed - I’ve got 13 Articles of Faith.
10. I'm Superior; I have 4 "Bibles"-- the standard works (5 if you count the JST) -- you've only got one: in as far as it is translated correctly.
11. I’m Superior; I can lie with impunity about such things as church membership, church growth, church doctrine, church history, church influence, etc. —                           -- You can’t.
12. I’m Superior; I am right (everybody knows) when I say 'evangelical' Christians are lunatics -- 
                           -- You’re a hideous narrow-minded bigot, who is persecuting me by practicing discrimination by saying I'm not a Christian.
13. I'm Superior; I have a testimony about a prophet -- you don't.
14. I'm Superior; I have a Scripture-producing Amos 3:7 prophet -- you don't

17. I’m Superior; I have magic underwear to protect me from the bogey man -- you don’t.

19. I'm Superior; I know secret handshake codes for afterlife entrances-- you don't.
20. I’m Superior; I will see Joseph Smith setting on the right hand of GOD, when I get to Mormon heaven, and he will recognize me and judge me favorably                              -- You’re on your own; when you get to wherever you’re going!
21. I’m Superior; I’m going to hie to Kolob -- you’re going to who knows where.
22. I’m Superior; I get to have a harem and act like a celestial stud for time and all eternity -- you don’t.
23. I’m Superior; I have sun stones, moon stones, sky stones, cloud stones, Saturn stones, and the evil eye of Osirus guarding my temple
                            -- You have nothing but a stupid cross.
24. I’m Superior; My church has billions in assets stashed away -- yours has taken a stupid vow of poverty.
25. I'm Superior; Last - we have the power to keep a whole race out of our priesthood if we wanted to reinsert our 148-year legacy  (we ARE still keeping an entire GENDER at bay!)
26.  I'm superior; I have the "higher law" -- everyone else "lives under the "lesser law' because I say so...(over and over).
