Poison Pen General Conference Talks

"you've left the gospel."

WTH does that mean, droopy?

Droopy is seriously in the mood to consign all his fellow Mormons to outer darkness today. He earlier put me in the great and spacious building because I thought his anti-gay views were primitive and ridiculous

Anyone who is pro-homosexuality - who assents to, supports, and defends its practice and lifestyle, is, by definition, in that illustrious structure. Anyone who abandons the law of chastity - the Lord's laws of the proper nature, purpose, and boundaries of human sexuality - is not only a resident of the GASB, but is probably in white tie and tux serving cocktails to the assembled guests - generously spiked by the arm of flesh with secular humanistic pride.

How someone is born and what their sexual orientation is has nothing to do with their worthiness before the Lord. The Lord loves and accepts them and so do I. It is called being Christ-like and non-judgemental.

My dad sent me a GC talk on repentance. He said, "I don't know what the sin is that you struggle with, but repentance will bring you true happiness." This came about a month after asking if I had a porn prob.

The good 'ol porn prob.

This type of question occurs because some members are unable to understand why anyone would make a rational choice to leave the Church. I am not sure which is worse Zee, your father's condescending inquiry or my father's wish that God would hurry up and punish me for my disbelief.

And I think that leaving the Church is the only rational choice.

I see you've pretty much left the gospel farm for the greener pastures on the Great and Spacious Country Club in toto, Consig.

Droopy, I hope you are not saying this in anger at the Great and Spacious Country Club after that run-in with their bouncers Hestia and Ares.

[_why me]

I am starting to think this must be a common Mormon pasttime--listening to GC talks with the idea of quoting them to others who "need to hear that message."

Does anyone here know of similar experiences?

All the Best!

--Consiglieri

Another positive spin from our very own Consig. Of course, one can look at it a different way: these people are actually trying to help a bad relationship in a way that they feel comfortable with. I really don't think that the people who do this have any ill intent. Now, maybe some do but most are trying to do the right thing.

When a person turns their head around from seeing negatives to positives as in this situation...life becomes brighter and much more enjoyable.

Why don't you try applying a bit of your own advice with respect to the words and actions of critics of Mormonism?

[_Droopy]

The Lord loves and accepts them and so do I.

He does not, however, accept homosexual conduct and its attendent culture.

It is called being Christ-like and non-judgemental.

So Jesus Christ is "non-judgmental?" Fascinating. And what is your basis for this assertion? Should I provide some scriptural quotations regarding this for your enlightenment?

And with that in mind, let us reflect on the LDS Church assenting to, supporting, and defending the right to engage in homosexual relationships. For example, here is a news story from that leftist anti-Mormon bastion of yellow journalism, KSL:

Mormon church issues statement in support of gay-rights ordinances

Also, here is President Thomas S. Monson, directly contradicting Droopy's assertion that someone who disagrees with the Church's political position regarding same-sex marriage is per se rejecting the gospel. This is from another leftist anti-Mormon rag, The Deseret News:

Thomas S. Monson named as new LDS Church president

Regarding another question about whether church members could disagree with the faith's opposition to legalizing same-sex unions and still remain in good standing, he said the answer "depends on what the disagreement is."

"If it's an apostasy situation, that would not be appropriate. If it's something political, there is room for opinion here and there on either side."

In addition, that leftist ivory tower of political correctness, Brigham Young University, has in recent years removed the prohibition in its honor code of "promoting homosexual relations as being morally acceptable." http://qsaltlake.com/2011/02/02/byu-rem ... onor-code/

You know, one might think that given his number of posts and the volume of his walls of text, Droopy might get something right once in a while---if nothing else, just by accident. It might seem like he would occasionally make an accurate assertion of fact just by random chance. But then again, it has been said that God does not play dice with the universe.
