It would be great if you stuck around and asked questions about our faith. I just get a little sick and tired of the "typical anti-mormon" questions. Can you understand my frustration? We'll be glad to try and answer questions you have.

Okay, I just had to give a big ROFL for the floridated comment. Nice (I live outside Orlando :P)

I thought your question was sincere. I didn't know you were mocking us. That'll teach me.

no I'm not mocking you:

If you read the link, it states quotes from Warren Jeffs, who is in NO WAY affiliated with the LDS Church. He is a criminal who rapes young girls and detroys lives. Again, He is in NO WAY affiliated with the LDS Church.

If you have a sincere question, then ask it. If you want to know abou tthe church, might I suggest lds.org or mormon.org.

Yes, Warren Jeff is with FLDS, which stands for FAKE LDS.


Again, Azaerino, if you have a sincere question, we will try to help.

You thought wrong. BTW, the Southern Poverty Law Center is not exactly the best place to get information about LDS beliefs. And Warren Jeffs has no connection to the LDS church other than a similar name for his church.

It is terribly unfortunate that skin color ever got associated with righteousness. However, we should do all that we can to distance ourselves from such an awful idea.

Skin color has nothing whatsoever to do with curses. We need to acknowledge that and repudiate any claims to the contrary.
