I am frankly wearying a bit of the passive aggressive LDS nonsense.
I see. How do you feel about the constant daily attacks upon the LDS faith on this board? Those ok?
Well, I’m sick to death of the Mormon-bashing threads too, and I’m not Mormon. Lately it seems this place is flooded with them.
It might be because the Mormon religion relies on deceptive missionary tactics, and because Mormon doctrines require a willing suspension of disbelief that honest men cannot maintain without swiftly turning into dishonest men.
Translation: Mormonism is a transparent sham and its painful to see what seem like good men participate in such a transparent sham.
I am not keeping track, nor am I interested in freerepublic’s religion section. I’ve seen LDS posts before and if accompanied by “LDS caucus” I mostly ignore them.
Someone asked earlier in the thread about the frequent Catholic posts winding up in the general forum. I wouldn’t mind their being segregated either.
And as to “constant daily attacks upon the LDS faith on this board” ...well, that phrasing kind of makes my point. I don’t see any blood. It’s all pretty mild compared to what Christians go through globally. However, I am sorry that you have to go through quite a bit of insulting flak.

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 (for at this time it had never entered into my heart that all were wrong)and which I should join.
19 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; that: they draw near to me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me, they teach for doctrines the commandments of men, having a form of godliness, but they deny the power thereof.
20 He again forbade me to join with any of them; and many other things did he say unto me, which I cannot write at this time. When I came to myself again, I found myself lying on my back, looking up into heaven. When the light had departed, I had no strength; but soon recovering in some degree, I went home. And as I leaned up to the fireplace, mother inquired what the matter was. I replied, Never mind, all is wellI am well enough off. I then said to my mother,
