“There is no answer - when we were Mormons, our bishop started lies about me because he was a control freak. I went to the Stake President, who claims the Bishop wouldn’t do that, so I sent it to Salt Lake, and they sent it back to our Stake President who ignored it. Our Bishop claimed that “Since I am the Father of the Ward, I know what’s best for your family better than YOU do”. Vicious circle, and nobody cared.
Wife then got a choice - them or me. 23 of us walked away - Us, kids, grandchildren - nobody cared.”

Hornet 22- I have similar horror stories about these kinds of disgraceful actions on the part of “the Mormon Lay Leadership.” Some of these useful idiots who are “called” to be “leaders,” let it go to their head. My wife’s father ( who was not Mormon but worked for a group of them) was fired from his job on trumped up charges of “business mismanagement” because the employer group needed financing and got it from the church on the condition that they replace my FiL with a Mormon.
Mormons do “discriminate” as do most other religions. Seems as though the route to get “your religion greater recognition,” is to denigrate all others. As I see it, the televangelists are probably the most honest in that they make no pretense about it being a “business” and being all about the money involved.
I mean didn’t some Black “TV minister” ask his “flock” for millions of dollars the other day because his private jet needed replacement?

You mean like the LDS do as their foundation? And before you claim I am lying, I have 30 printed pages of quotes by LDS leaders to prove it. Try me.
