I quit the Church!!!

[_Paul Osborne]

Yes, Paul my newest fellow whoremonger of filthy truth, "why me" is a lazy inactive jack Mormon who hopes his online defense of LDS Inc will help the subside the guilt he feels for being the worst member EVER.

Well, there is a simple fix to this problem. Why Me, pour yourself a glass of Jack Daniels and chug it down. Then, pour another one. You'll be feeling good within a few minutes! Suddenly all those commandments won't seems so important anymore. Besides, they are just suggestions or guidlines. :-)

Ain't that right Polygamy brother?

Neither. Just happy to help just in case

Ok, that's fair. No hard feelings.

You know what you are saying is wrong

Gaz, YOU think what I'm saying is wrong. Do you know my heart? Do you search the deepness therein? Are you God?

And yet I would bet the local ward is the first place you would go begging for help if you found yourself destitute.

Pathetic.

I haven't sought any help from the branch or ward. In ´fact, all know of my inactivity and no one seems to mind. But one thing that I do know, inactivity is no reason to deny someone help or to not to ask for help, if needed. Charity is wonderful food for the human heart and soul.

For example, your post has no charity. And that is okay. It is all a matter of choice.

KOLOB TO WHYME.. HELLLOOO?

I used to review membership status just like yours and guess what? It's not that the local ward/branch doesn't seem to mind your lazy pathetic inactivity, it that they have written you off as a lazy pathetic jack Mormon who will suddenly spring to activity when you are destitute.

Members won't hate you as a person, but they do despise you as a member. Get it?? Your defense of LDS Inc online means nothing to the church does nothing for the church.

Wait, I just realized I am wrong. It does something for the church.

I helps show lurking possible victims, errr converts that many members such as yourself are not fully committed to your faith, and why would they join such a church that is full of lazy, uncommitted, whiners?

Ya wanna make a difference in your silly church? Get your lazy jackmormon ass back into a pew and start working with your LOCAL membership.

NOBODY in cyberspace cares about your supposed defense of Mormonism, not a single person.

It is however, easy, and fun, pickins for me :)

Damn straight Paul. *bumps fists*

I hate to burst your bubble, Paul, but your namesake was the reason Christianity took off, and he was the son of a wealthy tent-maker with ties to the elite of imperial society. If it had been left to the fishermen whom Jesus chose, Christianity would be nothing but another forgotten Jewish sect

My bubble has already been broken. I'm free now.

You have every right to speculate. Had Paul never joined the church it would have gone on just fine without him. God didn't have to have Paul run his church. Let's not forget that Jesus was the great example and he proved that the working man of the earth is worthy of the highest calling in the church. Take note.

If it weren't for Saul of Tarsus I'd probably still be calling myself a Christian today.

[_Polygamy-Porter]

Jesus F'ING Christ bcspace is becoming a god right before our monitors!!!

Not quite. I believe some people are worth saving. I've not yet been able to internally accept that all people are worth saving. But I am making progress on that point.

May I request that you not try and save me?

Whisper into Jesus' ear "Send that little f'er to hell!" when I pass bar the judgement bar, K?

Hell, how about you, Gaz, Will and Danny ambush me in a back alley inbetween the kingdoms and see if the four of you can kick my apostate ass, shall we? Bring Jason and Liz as cheerleaders for your gang.

Which, on historical grounds, is likely a completely absurd statement. If it weren't for Saul of Tarsus, it is not clear that anyone would be calling themselves a Christian today, period.

Well, your imagining that it actually could have gone any other way than it did is far more speculative than my suggestion, which is based on the historical evidence, that it probably would not have worked out.
