Most of us don’t care what practicing Mormons believe as long as they don’t under pain of death make all of us live under their rules, cut off the heads of Christians, Jews or make our wives and daughters wear black sheets from head to toe.

There are some of us who care about the condition of a persons eternal soul, and consider that issue important.

I guess you never heard of "blood atonement"?

They seem to be peace loving people with great family values....do I agree with their religion...no....do they have a right to believe what they want...yes...when they start beheading innocents I will get worried , until then I don’t have a problem one with them!!!! [Ontap]

#1 Are you both aware that the initial 9/11 terrorist act in this country was committed by Mormons? (Sept. 11 & days following, 1857)

They slaughtered 120 innocents. (IOW, you're "until" or mass-killing scenario already occurred...It's just that event from 156 years ago is "breaking news" to you both.

#2 Don't we take our cultural cue from a certain "Lord" named Jesus Christ? Who are we to follow when it comes to setting cultural priorities? Jesus? or Ricoche and Ontap?

Here's Jesus:

"I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after the killing of the body, has power to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him." (Luke 12:4-5)

So does Jesus say, "fear the head-choppers?" (No)
Does Jesus say "fear sharia law?" (No)
Does Jesus say "fear those who oppress women?" (No)
Instead, does He say to exercise fear of the One who has authority to cast somebody into hell? (Yes)
So, indeed, our "fear" is on behalf of those who are placing their eternal spiritual lives at risk.

(Besides, others of us actually know how to multi-task in opposing counterfeit worldviews.)

So; hellish theology doesn't matter to you; eh?

I can guarantee you that there are some in America who feel quite differently!


I do not feel threatened by it because I don’t think that they will be attempting to convert by the sword.
 

The gruesome be headings of some 40 Ute corpses in 1850, heads stacked in boxes,
and hung by their long hair from the eves of buildings at Fort Utah,
 has long been ignored, “You didn’t see the Indians beheading the Mormons.”
 
-- Historian Robert Carter

...cut off the heads of Christians,

OOps!

My fault.

I missed the qualifier in your statement.

Sorry...

May I assume that WHITE garmmies are OK with you?

“Most of us don’t care what practicing Mormons believe”


If you claim to be a Christian, you ought to care, especially considering the Freepers who have credited threads like these by Colofornian as playing a role in their leaving of the cult.

So, either get out of the way, or help out:

2Ti_4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
