Walk with the dreamers, the believers, the courageous, the cheerful, the planners, the doers, the successful people with their heads in the clouds and their feet on the ground..Let their spirit ignite a fire within you to leave this world better than when you found it.

Expect a lot more virulent anti-Mormon bigotry like this as November gets closer...
Ummmm Silver Fiddle;
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,(the official name of the Mormon Church), are the REAL BIGOTS, refusing to allow African Americans to even join until 1978, yes 115 years AFTER Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves.
sorry if the TRUTH about that that 19th century cult which took over a territory to hide out in and practice their own weird version of Christianity has troubled you so much.
Funny how the evangelicals called the LDS church a cult BEFORE they nominated a Mormon to be leader of their "Christian" nation, now they embrace him as THE ONE who will oust the Black Muslim from the WH! hahahah! Do you think it's just a fake show of solidarity? Do you think the bigots will stay home in November?
clif: And democrats supported slavery, Jim Crow and eugenics...
Aside from that, bigotry still bigotry. Go look in the mirror.

keep throwing out the bigot argument Sf, I don't give a flying fuck.
I don't think the Mormons are any more cult like than Evangelicals or Catholics. My opinion is they are ALL cults...
And democrats supported slavery
You mean THE SOUTHERN BOLL WEEVIL democrats who after the racist southern strategy was started by Nixon and used by every racist right wing politico like Reagan and both Bushs got all those racist democrats to switch parties and become republiscum????????????????????
Those racists now registereed republiscum????
Those the slimy racists you are talking about sf
PS sf (stupid foole) I ain't one;
But the fooles you seem to support seem to fill that bill quite well;
You are having another one of yer
pot-kettle unintended self revealing moments on the intertubes
sf(see above) ;^)
Every time I drive by the Mormon temple in the San Diego community of University City, I make a little cross with my fingers. It's this horrible, gleaming-white, sparkly stucco on styrofoam pre-fab, 200-foot tall gothic monstrosity. They actually opened it to the public when it was first built in the early 1990s. I guess they thought it might win converts. Sometimes I say, "I bind you in the name of Jesus Christ! You have no power here!" That's all you have to say. Demons flee. It always makes me think of the flying monkeys in "The Wizard of Oz."
But everybody knows I'm fucking nuts!
Peace
I guess the best way to deal with the absurdities of organized religion, ESPECIALLY the practices of Mormons, is with humor!!
Flying Monkeys and magic underwear...
President Mittens?? God help us all..
Good friend of mine in America was a Mormon missionary in his youth.
Voted Republican for a lot of his life.
He’s now an atheist and active member of Occupy. WAY more acid on the subject of religion than I am, being someone who was raised in it and is still recovering from its assaults on common sense and ethics.
He’s lived all over the States but, wherever he goes, sooner or later the Mormon men in black show up demanding money.
Just sayin’…
I used to come down real hard on the Mormons, but as a friend pointed out, they are not much different than all the other organized religions...so true.
My own brother actually made a comment about Anderson Cooper's coming out.."Homosexuality is a Liberal trait"...WTF???!!!
Oh I wasn’t picking on Mormonism in particular.
I actually do not mind at all if they have multiple wives - provided they’re consenting adults and not related.
If people want pray to ‘this’, or not eat ‘that’, or wear ‘this’… I say let ‘em.
Just… leave the rest of us in peace…
Interesting detail from local news here: According to our latest census the church of Scientology, which is tax exempt, has less than 2500 adherents in Australia.
The Jedi have 65,000.
I know you weren't Magpie. I used to pick on them all the time and got called out on it, so now I just pick on them all equally! :))
I think I’ve actually misrepresented myself in that comment…
The live and let live thing is my reflex reaction… but the rest of us DON’T get left in peace.
If you drill down far enough, most of the bile and irrationality of the Right comes from attachment to absurd religious ideas and almost always it’s the Abrahamic faiths. If they are not persecuting the rest of us for not being just like them…. then they are having bloody inter-faith collisions that suck the rest of us in.
Religious doctrine will insist on the logical equivalent of 2+2=5 and then hate our guts for pointing out that 2+2 does not equal 5. People will get in cars powered by things that took millions of years to percolate to drive to church to learn that the universe is 6000 years old. It laughs at climate change and then tells you we got kicked out of paradise because a snake gave an apple to a woman.
It’s like Peter Pan with fangs.
Funny, I thought only conservative white guys were pro-slavery.
