I was surprised to hear him say that the LDS Church has occasionally asked FAIRMormon for internet posting information on certain unnamed persons of interest.

And that FAIRMormon happily complied with their request.

It sounds to me like FAIRMormon is at the beck and call of Church leaders to help them spy on members.

Do I have that about right?

All the Best!

I would think that the law of obedience would cover that and more. The Book of Mormon makes it clear that killing for god is okay, and killing for god's prophets is pretty much the same thing. A little thing like "watching over the flock" is nothing.

Plus, you're way too transparent with all your moaning about being released from your Gospel Doctrine position. Ego gets a a spankin' and you're going to obtain your retribution.


You are a liar, Bob.

You continued to tell the same lie about me over at MDDB, over and over again, even though I kept correcting you.

You said I stopped going to church because I was released from Gospel Doctrine teacher.

You said it in order to demean me and attempt to weaken my arguments through your ad hominem.

You know it is not true, and yet you kept saying it.

And now you're repeating it here.

The last time I called you on it at MDDB, you said you really didn't care why I stopped going to church--you just hoped I would recover from it.

And that was another lie. Which I had to call you on again.

Of course the reason you kept repeating the lie even when I called you on it is because you didn't really care, but only wish me the best.

That makes you a liar, Bob.

You are not a good person.


There is nothing inaccurate about my post.

And you are just an avatar. How wrong is it to make fun of you? You could just be making it all up.

Of course FAIRMormon would happily complied with their request. As would any member. The church could ask anything of its membership and they would get it. From junior primary on members are taught it's okay to cut off a man's head if the still small voice tells you to. Compared to that ratting out your neighbor is nothing.

Jealous much Bob?

Even if you finally found the courage to admit LDS Inc is false, there is nothing you can do.

Your hands are tied. As much as you despise DCP, you two share the same grim future.

Your financial future is directly tied to your allegiance to Joseph'S Myth.

With such a large, older, brood of children with grandkids, all mired in the cult, you would be die a lonely old man if you exited.

You wasted an entire life defending the indefensible. Defending something that 99.95% of world does not give two craps about.

I would say I pity you, but you'd know I am lying.

If it is even a little bit wrong, should a disciple of Christ be doing it?

Bob? A disciple of the fictional character Jesus T. Christ?


Nah, he is just a jealous old man who is angry he has not been given any props for wasting his life defending LDS Inc.

Religion has this type of control over the minds of their followers....not just the LDS. Look at the history of the world and what the religions of the people have caused them to do to one another. We can find inside of major world religions the same message Christ taught: "Do unto others what you would have others do unto you." However, it appears that those religions have ignored that simple message.

I have a question wrote:I thought gossiping was frowned upon by Mormon leaders?
I guess it's another case of do as we say, not as we do....


It's aloud if you are Gossiping about the bedroom dealings of Gay members.

Together with its spin-off, "Would You Spy On Your Neighbor for the Church?"

And the mods have just issued a special OP that "The Trial Period Has Expired."

I'm not sure to whom that special OP is directed . . .


Definatley me. I got a two day no posting aloud reprimand for my spying eyes of the bishops into the members bedrooms remark.
