For an article to qualify for "ecumenical" discussion it must not be antagonistic, e.g. mention beliefs which would antagonize other Freepers.
LDS Caucus privileges are forfeit.
Thank you, RM.
I thought this thread was pulled.
The “no antagonism” guideline applies to “ecumenical” threads NOT “caucus” threads.

too all seekers of truth does truth matter?
... seems not to those who never really read they Bible or study it they let others do their thinking for them but the Lord told all of us to Search the Scriptures whether those things were so and not to relie on others.
John 5:39
39 ¶Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
Acts 17:11
11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
In other words, the “Caucus” guidelines apply to every other religious persuasion EXCEPT The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
You can explain it away with some strange verbiage that makes no sense but the fact remains that Mormons are not welcome here UNLESS we are fighting side-by-side with other Christians to overcome causes you agree with. When the victory is won, however, and you don't need us anymore, you are willing to throw us under the bus like so much dirt.
While we Mormons were laboring side-by-side with other Christians to pass Prop 8, no one was calling us “evil” or “cult” members or anything derrogatory at all. However, after Prop 8 passed many of them turned on us. It was a real eye-opener for me let me tell you.
And the same scenario plays out here on FR. We are your friends when we are helping with your conservative causes and candidates but as soon as it becomes inconvenient to your agenda of anti Mormon bigotry, we are crapped on.
I'm not sure what you people believe anymore. As for me and my house we will serve the Lord.
In a REAL cult, people are not free to express themselves. In a REAL cult, people are punished for not towing the line. In a REAL cult, innocent people are accused of horrible things. In a REAL cult, privileges are dolled out on the basis of OBEDIENCE to the leaders. FR has all the makings of a REAL cult. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints operates on the basis of FREE AGENCY.
By the way, the Jim Robinson who used to be my friend and who is a true gentleman would never mistreat and abuse his friends in this manner. I refuse to believe that it is really my friend Jim Robinson with whom I have freeped up a storm since 1998 who is in charge of this anti Mormon brigade that continues to crush freedom of speech and freedom of religion on this site. It cannot be the Jim Robinson whose home I visited and with whom I freeped every Saturday for over a year in Modesto against "Condidit". This is not the Jim Robinson who asked me to coordinate the C-Span event. It can't be! Will the REAL Jim Robinson please stand up. Merry Christmas.
