All religions are cults.

technically true.

but anything to bash the gop's candidate. must leave obama's religion alone, but hey, romney's is fair game.

i remember all the talk about how it shouldn't matter if a candidate is muslim by the left....now...holy crap we have a mormon candidate and now religion really does matter.
 
It's a Cult!

All religions are cults.


mormon_garments1.jpg


Mormons believe that the holy garment will protect them from fire, bullets, knives and other assaults if the person wearing the garments have kept all of their "temple covenants". During the washing and anointing ceremony the Mormon is told the garment "represents the garment given to Adam when he was found naked in the garden of Eden." The person is told that the garment "will be a shield and a protection to you against the power of the destroyer until you have finished your work here on earth." In general, Mormons view the garment as a symbolic and spiritual shield against the powers of Satan. Some LDS believe that the garment provides them with "supernatural powers" of physical protection. Bill Marriott, prominent Mormon and owner of Marriott Hotels International stated in an interview with Mike Wallace of 60 Minutes that he believed his garments protected him from being burned during a boating accident.


I could use some of this shit?!!

Mormonism doesn't meet the criteria to be a cult just like Ken doesnt set the criteria to be useful or intelligent or anything other than human toadstool.
 
I'm sick of GOP candidates that are on a 'mission from gawd' and Mitt is on a mission.

and obama is not? lol. they are both believers in god and christ. my hunch is you will give obama a pass for this:

Obama Prayer Team

On February 10th, Barack Obama began his announcement speech for President giving all praise and honor to God. This group is for those who believe in the power of prayer. The purpose of this group is to pray for Barack Obama, his family, and the future of our nation.

Wow, how idiotic. Mormons don't believe those underwear will protect them from guns and knives, that's just stupid blather meant to excite the stupid.
 
Bashing someone's beliefs should be left to the rightwing haters...


BTW, the evangelical Christians are the most vocal...

There are literally thousands of these hate-filled, intolerant sites on the web.

Damo, there are members who believe that the garments afford them physical protection, though most believe it is just spiritual protection.

There are fundamentalists that believe invoking the name of Jesus will afford you physical protection.

There are extremists in all religions that have some, pretty far fetched ideas.

My aunt use to carry a medal blessed with holy water fom Lourdes that she thought protected her from harm.

Holy pre-Civil War history, Batman!!

:what:

History regardless and ugly. What was done to the Mormons by others was equally ugly...but this bit hits home because my fathers people are from Arkansas. there is just way too much magical thinking in the world and in our country in particular. It gets in the way of dealing with reality in a rational way. It's counter productive.
