  AHHHHH, its all clear now. Hello and greetings from Salt Lake City. Yessir, this is me born of Mormon heritage, descendant of the first pioneers to this blessed and right now very hot and dry valley. I have lived 30 years here going to school with, working with, playing with, dating, and being related to LDS people. Some are very nice, some are complete a-holes. There are worse people you could be surrounded with.

  But sometimes, sometimes it gets to be too much and I just wnat to scream, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! One gets so tired of trying to make sense of your religion, which is every bit as screwy as the JW's. From simple things like why you can drink Coke but can't drink coffee, to deeper things like why black people couldn't be priests untill the late '70's. If you want to dig deep enough, (which your r & f Morman doesn't do) you will find some crazy beliefs that will blow your mind, like how folks came to the America's thousand of years before the Vikings even, and that the Garden of Eden used to be in the America's. One LDS extremest today as a matter of fact told me that Earth itself was hurled from another solar system into this one, I kid you not.

  Now I have some wonderful LDS inlaws but I tell you, as a whole I do not like your religion. I have had a High Priests lie to my face and rip me off in buisiness not so long ago so I am a little bitter maybe. It is commonly percieved among non-LDS people here that when it comes to money, all LDS principles go out the door.

  The bottom line is that you put your faith in men, men who claim to have been inspired by God but can provide no such proof. You all practically worship Joe Smith, Brigham Young, and whoever may be the current old fossil in charge. When they have to change policy you claim human error, yet they speak for God any other time (sound familiar anyone?) The BOM is not even well written and the way Smith trys to sound like the King James bible is hillarious. Just another story with nothing to back it up, like the bible and yet so many people try to hold it as inspired. An interesting phenomenon.

  Anyway at least most LDS lead a clean life, and when they are not trying to force thier lifestyle on their neigbors, they are good people to be around.

  Quantum: I kind of like you, I really do (in a weird sort of way), but if you remember my post from last week, BEFORE you identified yourself as Morman....I said preaching religion on this board is "as useful as a tit on a bull". That's not what people are here for. I've said this before, I like Mormans, I have several Morman friends here in So. California (can't vouch for the Utah ones)...and they are the coolest people I know...HOWEVER, regarding this board, if Jesus Christ himself came back, logged in and wrote lengthy posts that in essence would say "I am the Truth, come follow Me"...this board would NOT be interested, because preaching is not what this board is for.

  tdogg, loved your post!

  I guess the thing that struck me about Mormonism was that it seemed a very American kinda thing to do. For the rest of the world (that's me) who doesn't quite get American self importance, it seemed that they felt left out of the whole Bible thingy (same here in Australia) and so they came up with an entirely different version of Christianity that put them on the map and muscled out the Palestine. I guess God has to be on American home soil to be taken seriously.

  Double Edge, you are 100% right. As my husband always says: I've had enough religion to last a life time.

  Quantum: Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

  here is the 3Rd biggest prophesy of all time. I asked this question in an earlear post but of course no one new it....and no one will recognize it as one any way.......but it was one given by The angel moroni.....who quoted a bible scripture....Through Joseph Smith of course.......it is the most important activity the mormon church is involved with and many who don't even have a clue are also involved. it is over taking the world.....what is it?

  ancestry work...geneology....Temple work....

  laugh as you may ..it is beyond your comprehension.

  and no one but a fool would call a mormon stupid....we are the most educated people in this country........JW"S...the least!!!!!!!!
