It’s a Romney themed day I guess…
Well, Al Sharpton seems to have brought Anti-Mormonism to the forefront of the political dialog (even though Republican evangelicals have been beating the “Mormon’s aren’t Christians drum for DECADES). At least Rev. Sharpton had the false decency to offer a half-asseed non-apology.
Other right wing wackados don’t feel the need to ooze out false sincerity, because they see nothing at all wrong with pummeling the LDS faith. Nothing at all. Well, whoopty do, lets get all Imus on Sharpton’s ass and ignore the ones who actually sound dangerous.
From a MotherJones article about Bill Keller, host of the Florida-based Live Prayer TV, and he writes in his daily devotional (which reaches 2.4 million people)::
“If you vote for Mitt Romney, you are voting for Satan! … Romney is an unashamed and proud member of the Mormon cult founded by a murdering polygamist pedophile named Joseph Smith nearly 200 years ago. The teachings of the Mormon cult are doctrinally and theologically in complete opposition to the Absolute Truth of God’s Word. There is no common ground. If Mormonism is true, then the Christian faith is a complete lie. There has never been any question from the moment Smith’s cult began that it was a work of Satan and those who follow their false teachings will die and spend eternity in hell.”

“Romney getting elected president will ultimately lead millions of souls to the eternal flames of hell!”
So, keep at it folks. Go get Sharpton! Forget Robertson, forget Fallwell, forget Keller! Go. Get. Sharpton. HE’S THE DANGEROUS ONE! Right?
So, I get it. Rev. Sharpton is an ass, but, my God, he’s got nothing on those evangelicals and yet they seem to be able to do and say far worse to the Mormons and they always get away with it. I makes my head hurt.
He looks like a “love your neighbor” Christian. Some flames and stalagtites in the photo and he could be Beelzabub himself.
I should have paid more attention in Sunday School as I don’t remember the book in the BofM that talks about JS being a murdering pedophile.
Is Keller’s Satan like the one in South Park? Cause that would be funny.

(screaming all-caps from the source)
“WORD HAS ALREADY CIRCULATED THAT TODAY I WAS GOING TO BE TAKING A HARD STAND AGAINST MITT ROMNEY’S PRESIDENTIAL BID AND THOSE EVANGELICAL LEADERS WHO SUPPORT HIM. I HAVE RECEIVED NUMEROUS EMAILS “ADVISING” ME TO LAY OFF AND “DON’T ROCK THE BOAT.” I HAVE ALSO HEARD FROM SEVERAL DONORS OF LIVEPRAYER THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE FAVORABLE TO SUPPORTING THIS MINISTRY ANY LONGER IF I DELIVERED THIS MESSAGE. IT IS GOD I SERVE, NOT MEN. WHEN I TAKE MY LAST BREATH, IT IS GOD WHO I WILL BE STANDING BEFORE, NOT MEN.”

I have been warning you for years now about this cult born out of the pits of hell and responsible for sending millions of souls to eternal damnation. For the nearly 200 years this cult has been in existence they have strived for mainstream acceptance. They are the most devious of all the cults since they have always tried to portray themselves as “just another Christian group” when in fact, they are no more Christian than a Muslim is! Their deception starts with their name, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Sounds like a Christian church doesn’t it? Some Mormons have recently changed their name to simply Community of Christ to disguise even better who they are in an attempt to lure people in.
The Mormon cult talks of God and Jesus, but again, don’t be deceived since the god and jesus of Mormon theology are NOT the one true God and Jesus of the Bible. This cult also uses the Bible, but like in all cults it is NOT their final authority. The Bible is superceded by the writings of Smith in the Book of Mormon, the Pearl of Great Price, and the Doctrine and Covenants. These books form the perverted teachings of Mormonism and is what their false theology is based on.

What a dick.
Here is a link to the 990 for 2006. It is fairly instrutive as to what kind of Christian Mr. Keller is.
Page 16 is particularly informative. Of the 2.05 million dollars the charity received from donors, the largest expenditures were “travel & entertainment”, and a vauge “TV” account (I assume this would be the “BK Media” company that produces his television shows.Wholly owned by Mr Keller.)The percentages of income funneled into these accounts are over 6% into “Travel & Entertainment” (over 130k) and 80% into “TV” (near 1.65 million)
I’m looks like he is playing a creative shell game with his “ministries”501(c)(3) and the supporting Media business. A clever way of cloaking where his money is really going. (I’d guess his pocket in a large measure)
Forgot the link. Sorry

JM Bell is a Utah Democrat. I wonder why he might hate “Mormon” republicans?
Oh, wait. It looks like he is just quoting Bill Keller in the comment. Never mind.
Oh, wait. You’re an idiot.
Next time, bjalder26, RTFA.
I hate little dimwitted shits like you. Yeah, asshole, I am a Utah Democrat, in fact, I’m a Democrat everywhere I go.
I don’t hate Mormons, Republican or otherwise, because: I am one, you asshat (just not a very good one).
So, pull your head out of your ass, nitwit.

The matchless message, is pleasant to me 🙂
Interesting theme, I will take part. I know, that together we can come to a right answer.
I think, that you are not right. I can defend the position.
It goes beyond all limits.
What touching a phrase 🙂
