It didn't occur to me that a Mormon could be racist. It seemed anathema to me. Not long after I left the church I came across the truth about BY and those that followed.

Not anathema at all.
And you've been persecuting Mormons ever since like a lunatic. Yeah, we get it. You have serious mental issues.

I never wrote that. You really are looney tunes, TROLLBIN. You are so stupid that you can't even attribute quotes to the right person. Did you mistake the pizza delivery guy for an alien? Is that what really happened? C'mon, you can tell us. Did his spaceship have a Dominoes light on the top of it?

Fixed it. Thanks for letting me know. You should learn not to have such a thin skin. Not everything is about you despite the fact you seem to be a narcissist.

Yeah, it's being a narcissist when someone puts your name on something. :rolleyes: If you had simply hit the "quote" button, that wouldn't have happened. But that would be too easy now, wouldn't it?

People make mistakes. Get over yourself.

What did your visitor say?

And what language does he (/she/it) use?

- To assert that the earth revolves around the sun is as erroneous as to claim that Jesus was not born of a virgin. - Cardinal Bellarmine at the trial of Galilei

sock puppet wrote:In his 1973 book entitled Decisions for Successful Living, Harold B Lee wrote this, Chapter 19 of that book (provided in full lest the TBMs would claim we were cherry picking and taking this out of context). He was the 'prophet' when the book was published



The man was a racist of the first order.

I think its profitable to remind ourselves that Harold B. Lee and Abraham Lincoln probably put their pants on one leg at a time ......like the rest of us. :smile:
