Saundra, I have never damned anyone to hell nor have I called the LDS a cult but did you really post this?

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.

In the LDS faith people are regularly excommunicated for not "towing the line". There have been several high profile excommunications lately involving people "expressing themselves". I have seen Mormonism work in my families lives and seen them accuse even their own spouses of horrible acts to get back at them and have their TR removed. The best callings have always been given to the "best Mormons" and not the best candidates.

Do not use that paragraph again to defend Mormonism against the cult label it does not help Mormonism.

Saundra I pray for you as well.

You did have to, PF; as their own LEADER has done the hard work alREADY!


"Now if any of you will deny the plurality of wives, and continue to do so, I promise that you will be damned;

and I will go still further and say, take this revelation, or any other revelation that the Lord has given,

and deny it in your feelings, and I promise that you will be damned.

Brigham Young - JoD 3:266 (July 14, 1855)


But SAndy will just brush it away with a mere flick of her wrist while exclaiming all the while...

"It mattereth not...

It mattereth not...

It mattereth not...
