Re: Republican wants Gay-Straight Alliances banned from Utah high scho
[ QUOTE ]
Even if they replied none because they are catholic like me, the result is the same, i.e. you will never be accepted fully in society and will not prosper in business without being Mormon. [/ QUOTE ] Tangential, but now I'm wondering: might evangelical Christians be an exception to this effective exclusion or not? I'll guess "not"--although I don't really see how the Mormons could claim the evangelical Christians are *wrong*. (The Mormons might claim their Book of Mormon builds on and perhaps even surpasses the Bible, but they can't/don't claim the genuine Bible-thumpers are *wrong*, do they? (and by using the "Bible-thumpers", I mean strictly in the religious, not political, sense). |

If you're not Mormon then you're just NOT. Since they use the cultic practice of shunning members, even family, who have left their fold, that should show this point.

I'm no expert, but I do know all of us are screwed, since Mormonism strictly forbids, among other things, gambling.

Re: Republican wants Gay-Straight Alliances banned from Utah high scho
with all due respect to religions everywhere -
Mormons are whackos - preys on the weakest and most gullible members of society and if you miss an offering they'll come to your door to see if you want to give. If you wanna get married - then it's def. the right church - since you can't attain highest levels of heaven without being married - easy to push polygamy on a woman when you convince her she won't reach her full God potential unless she's putting out and having babies. makes me sick, actually - some mormon chicks are HOT RB |

Unless you are intentionally being misleading, the Mormon Church renounced polygamy in the late 1800s as a result of court decisions and as a condition of the admission of Utah into the union (the prophet of the council of 12 had message from God to do it they claim). There are only some very small splinter sects that still practice it.

Re: Republican wants Gay-Straight Alliances banned from Utah high scho
Mormons renounce Caffiene. As a centrist right republican I do not understand the homophobic attitude. Ostrocizing one sexual orientation for no legitimate reason can draw comparisons to the Germans otrocizing Jews because they are a different religion.
The ambitious politicians in Utah are clearly pursuing a religous agenda, which is ok if that's what the constituents want, however, this law is so clearly unconstitutional it makes Plessy v. Ferguson look logical. |
