Find the posters here who believe that they will be a god in the afterlife and will be saddled with hundreds if not thousands of wives. Taunt them for hoping for an eternal desk job of managing the construction of "worlds without numbers".

Pity the fools here who have not heard any new wonderful revelation from their so called profit except that girls should only have one set of piercings and only in their earlobes!


And yet, Mormons are rather well educated, hard workers, love god, attempt to do god's will, be good neighbors, love their enemy and in the main, contribute well to society.

Somewhat like most other citizens, with the God part optional, and which god more optional still. They also have good personal qualities and work together towards similar goals to achieve a stable, organized, abundant, protective, generous, peaceful society, safety and opportunity for their family, and personal happiness.

Thanks, Rockslider, for volunteering your time.

However, these people do not come from such an organization as described by PP. And yet, as a group of individuals, Mormons are rather good people coming from a certain organization that is demonized on this board.

Yep, those Boy Scout leaders were dandies weren't they? Let's lie in filing a lawsuit about being disabled, and on top of that destroy a rock formation that was how many years old?

How much education did that take? How is that contributing to society?

That's right up there with those mishies that vandalized the Catholic Shrine a few years ago.

How much eductation did that take? How is that contributing to society?

Just because someone buys an education doesn't mean they are smart. Just because someone has a job, it doesn't mean the work, see where this is goin?

Yep, these are great people, I want them as my neighbors!!

by the way, don't you get tired of being a hypocrite?

Sucks to lose a good mod. Hope you stay to post. This whole thing was a drag...not that I am guilt free. I am embarrassed by the way I have acted so many times on this board.

Negative, negative and negative. I never said Mormons are perfect. Geez...and yes, I would want Mormons as my neighbors and yes, some young Mormons do have growing pains....and immaturity but....
