I have had the honor of being trusted enough to have had a conversation or two with Olias surrounding his faith; and while I respect and admire his fortitude in keeping his faith a personal matter, I can say that "me's" commentary and assumptions could not be further from the truth of the matter.

My conversations with Olias were outside of this forum and on topics that are very personal to both of us, and as he keeps and honors the confidentiality of others and those of a personal nature, I too will keep them.

But there is absolutely no doubt that "me" is wrong on this one.  :yes:

   I know you had to bite your tongue on this on, but she is wrong on everything.   :yes:  Is there anyone :ne1: out there that can tell me what she was right on.  Hee, hee, hee.   :smile:

He is also wrong about some of the things that he has assumed about me so I guess that makes us even.  I am glad to hear he is a man of honor when it comes to keeping things others tell him in confidence to himself.  That is a plus to me and speaks volumes about a person so maybe I'll quit being so hard on him and try not to take things he says too personal in the future and end up saying things just to get even like some childish little brat.  Yes, I've been known to do that a few times just out of anger and frustration.   :-[

Yepper!  Many of my Christian relatives always told me when I was growing up that Mormonism is a cult.   :yes:

I don't think I've ever known an adherent to x-tianity to express anything other than that opinion concerning Mormonism - even the obvious cultish sects of x-tianity.

So you're saying Romney is a Morman so he strictly adheres to that religion but Obama who attended Rev Wright's church for 20yrs and is a close friend doesn't adhere to the belief of that church........ :confused:

Interesting.  I didn't see me mention anything about either Romney or Obama.

No wonder you're confused.   :wink:

  I was forced more or less to go to church for years.  I never considered the preacher my friend nor a mentor and never did Obama.  He just did what he was taught, go to church.  More poison crap from the Republican Party.   :rolleyes:

The subject would not have been brought up if the intent hadn't been there to put Romney in a bad light because he is a Mormon somewhere along the line and you know it. If you recall when the thread started it was in the moderated section and had a different subject.

  What I want is an atheist as president.  He wouldn't give a damn what and religious group did as long as they didn't bother anyone else.  Including that they could no include their own children in their stupid religion.  There would be no religious laws and no laws based on religion.  No :pope:

Which "religious" laws would you repeal?

  Anne, can't you read.  No where did I say that any religion would be banned.  No way, no how.  Let the religious fools play their silly games of worshiping a invisible guy in the sky.  Watching them 24 hours a day, 7 day a week, 365 days a year.  For every imaged sin and if you break one he throws you in the fiery pits of hell, because he loves.  Have at it.  But you religious nuts leave everybody else alone.  And if one of your crazy preachers get you to drink poison, don't call on us, bury your own.  We can sit back and shake our head at such fools.  :doh:

  Anne, you surly can't believe all of this religious smoke and mirrors.  Virgin birth?   And how could Jesus who is God die for our sins if he is in heaven alive for ever and ever.  Anne, give us a break.  You're smarter that that.  Henry?  I don't think so.  :haha:

Exactly.  There are tremendous differences in all sorts of areas.  That's why I was surprised to see "me's" comments that precipitated this thread in the Rough House.  It's well known, and common knowledge, that most mainstream Christian religions disagree vehemently with the Mormons, and almost all of them consider Mormonism to be a cult.
