Everyone here has the same right to speak on a forum that is privately funded, and privately maintained, but the Robinson family. God bless Jim - and may he heal now.
God bless John too.
I have to agree with tomkat and miz sterious that this isn't what we signed up for ten years ago.
Tomkat has been on the front lines of FR and Conservatism. I was at the "March For Justice" Impeachment Rally on the Washington Mall in Oct 1998 with Jim Robinson, Allen Keyes, and Ann Coulter.
I was also at the Impeachment Managers Dinner at the Washington Hilton with all my fellow Freepers.
That matters here because we are really about Conservativism - and have proven it.
These LDS threads tell us that many Freepers are about.....well.....LDS.
What is most important to me? Jesus Christ.
They tell me that the Gospel of Jesus Christ that I believe in is an (in the words of Joseph Smith) and "abomination."
And I cannot respond to this?
GIVE ME A BREAK.
"My object in going to inquire of the Lord was to know which of all the sects was right, that I might know which to join. No sooner, therefore, did I get possession of myself, so as to be able to speak, than I asked the personages who stood above me in the light, which of all the sects was right and which I should join. I was answered that I must join none of them, for they were all wrong, and the personage who addressed me said that all their creeds were an abomination in His sight: that those professors were all corrupt . . ." (Joseph Smith, "History of the Church, Vol. 1, page 5-6.)
