You have the right to your religion, but you do not have the right to demand that others acknowledge its validity.
****
In all due respect as a LDS I could never conceive of such request for it would be foreign to me
but there is a distinct different from maligning one’s faith endlessly which has nothing in common with demanding validation.
One only needs validation from the Lord not man!
I have received conformation from God Almighty about mormonISM, and He said flee, flee from this blasphemy.
He said it is not of Me.
Oh...do you mean the way that every single day the 55,000 mormon missionaries malign the faith of Christians?
The missionaries tell Christians that their faith is bogus and the only way to salvation is through membership in the mormon church and arcane rituals in mormon temples.
The missionaries tell Christians that God removed the true Gospel from the earth and chose an adulterous, conniving con man to "restore" it.
But, of course, mormons don't consider THAT as "maligning".
Resty forgets that 50,000 mormon missionaries go about daily trying to convince Christians that their faith is apostate and false with lds being the only true religion.
but there is a distinct different from maligning one’s faith endlessly which has nothing in common with demanding validation.

well Resty...
Maligning my religion endlessly isnt going to make yours valid regardless of how much you might demand it...
As far as I understand the Lord loves all his children and each one has their agency to practice according to the dictate of their conscience.
********************************
I do agree, which is why I choose to do my best to ignore criticisms of my religion. It is not for me or others to demand that the owner of this site approve of my religion, nor is it my right to demand that he might refuse to allow others to criticize it.
I am a guest here.
No TR® for you!
