A quick search reveals that you were banned on LDS Freedom Forum, which is both pro-Mormon and conservative. I think Lemmie's point stands that there exists no forum that we could say of, "And if we were on a Forum where people like me [ldsfaqs] were the majority, Conservative and TBM Intellectuals,". Any forum of TBM "intellectual" conservatives won't have you. The exception might be a forum ran by Droopy where you're the only other registered member.

Wow, just went back and read that thread on the Freedom Forum, get this, faqs.

Sad you all are for getting rid of people for simply not towing your conspiracy theory's line having a different viewpoint. Anti-mormons give their "lists" also, but that doesn't mean their judgements on each of those particular issues are truthful and accurate. Sorry, but your lists aren't either.

And fyi, I'm a former marine, a strong constitutionalist, a conservative, a faithful Mormon, a republican, etc. all because of ideology and truth. I've spent my whole life observing people and living and experiencing different circumstances and different kinds of people, and my judgement is true. Your judgements are an extreme misrepresentation but toward the other side, just as wrong as the extreme left are.


Jason makes the call and points out, "...small world on here....LeeUniverse is devilpup, conservative, republican, and caught up in the left vs. right"

So I guess I need to take back what I said. There really could be a forum of like-minded intellectual conservatives. We've Got ldsfaqs, Obiwan, Leeuniverse, devilpup, and who else? It's a start.

Turns out that's not always true; sometimes light can't overcome darkness (see also: every interaction you have ever had with anyone here).

I'm sure you meant that first sentence in the most philo-Semitic sense possible, ldsfaqs, but I'm curious: didn't you used to be an anti-Mormon? If so, doesn't that mean that you saw "only the worst, the most vile, the distorted, even so much as to giving a pass to murderers" and thus were "the equivalent of evil men and women and ideology's of evil"?
