Sorry, can’t you see how absolutely unChristian such a remark is. So you resort to making fun of, disparaging, making light of, and using such vitriol against the disabled? Against people suffering from malingnant bone caner?
Don’t get me wrong, personally, it does not hurt me...given my experiences on the hurt or pain meter, it does not register. At any rate, I know who my salvation rests in and who it is that has answered the prayers of many fathful Christians on my behalf, including many of my own faith and many good FReepers too.
But I just find it sad...actually, pretty disgusting...that you would, in an effort to try and show through these examples you have mentioned (which there are bad examples of LDS people, like there would be in any population numbering in excess of 15 million...but when compared to the vast majority of the people who live and practise the faith, such numbers pale to insignificance)...anyhow, in attempting to show “bad fruit” amongst the LDS, you resort to this?
Making fun of, dispariging the disabled and those afflicted with malignant cancer?
Well, have your laugh. I sincerely pray to God in Heaven, in Jesus name, that you and yours are never afflicted with such a diagnosis or disease. But talk about removing the beam from your own eye so you can see clearly...sheez, amazing.
Typical “It’s all about me” Jeff Headonism.
Wearing your affliction(s) on your sleave does not undo the factual history surrounding America’s Islam.
Have a nice (Latter) day.
What total hogwash, Jeff.
You are attempting to use your cancer to pimp for Romney and the mormon church. Dozens of FReepers have or have had cancer and are not trying to accuse those who disagree with them of "making fun of, dispariging the disabled and those afflicted with malignant cancer" in order to make political points or pimp mormonism. Shame on you.
[Spoken as a breast cancer survivor since July, 2010...and no, the mormon god had nothing to do with my survival. I owe it to God and His Son, Jesus.]
Jeff, have you taken the oath of LDS inc melchizedek high riesthood? And honest answer is not what I expect from you, but you might surprise me. And if you have taken that oath(s) then you have committed blasphemy toward Jesus Christ Who is the ONLY Melchizedek High Priest and He is that Priest FOREVER, Jeff. You’re a fraud.
Huh? For a guy who says he knows the Bible, you sure do miss quote/reference it a lot. “know by fruit” as you have been told dozens of times refers to false prophets, like Joseph Smith.
Your continual reference to your own cancer is boring, and self promoting, saying this as a 25 year survivor of ovarian cancer.
psst lds have maybe 14 mil world wide, 6 mil maybe in the US and only half of them are considered active. Really Jeff if you are going to spout stats at least use some that are not so easily found out to be untrue or at the very least highly exaggerated.
