That blows; no doubt. I'm sorry your family got caught up in all that.SwordMaster wrote:On a side note... as you may wonder how I became so disgusted by scientology. [etc.]
And just for clarification: I can't stand those idiots, either. I just don't think they're a huge issue in regards to KJA. Then again, I could easily be wrong. Maybe next week, KJA's blog will be full of some CoS nonsense and I'll be stuck eating a large helping of crow. I don't know.
Oddly enough, my feeling is that this is one area where KJA isn't deserving of criticism. Because if he is CoS, he's the quietest damn Scientologist I've even seen, and that's the way I like my nut-jobs: nice and quiet.
Ugh. Sticking up for KJA, even vaguely, makes me feel unclean.

No, angry Dukester should probably do more of that "take a deep breath, then decide whether to press 'submit' " thing.
It's that goddamn KJA's fault; he makes me do strange things.

the definition is up to the Government - in America, whether or not your
group has First Amendment protection - Native Americans had to go to
court to be allowed "sweat lodges" in Federal prisons, & etc.
then there's the Branch Davidians ....
For the Scientologists, the Federal court decision that labeled it a
"religion" opened the door for non-profit tax status ....

Sure. In just less than 200 years Mormons are walking around like they belong to a real religion; even claim it's a form of "Christianity" ... which itself started out as a cult adaptation of a Jewish splinter group. Give the Scientologists a hundred years or so and they'll be every bit as legit.

Depends though, I look at crazy Mormans as maybe worst ever, because Insest Rape of children is nothing less then pure evil. So really, that is far worse then what Scientology does or ever will do. If I was to go on a blaze of glory to kill as much evil as possible, I think Id start in Utah.

Compared to the Mormons, Scientology isn't that bad (but we're looking at the lesser of two evils here). Scientology has led to the horrible deaths of quite a few of their members, planted members in government positions to get top-secret information to sell between world powers, driven people into bankruptcy and delusions, and so much more.
The Mormons have done quite a bit in the short time they've been here, and the child brides/polygamy certainly stands out the most. But the atrocity I always remember is the Mountain Meadows Massacre, when an emigrant wagon train was attacked and 120 men, women, and children were killed. Some infants were killed while in their mothers arms, and the bodies were left to rot on the plains for over two years. They then covered it up by saying it was a local Indian attack, and it's only recently that this has come to light.

Really? That's the one you "always remember"? So you lifted your description of the events, word for word, from the Wikipedia page? If it means so much to you, you'd think you could come up with your own words to describe it ...Redstar wrote:But the atrocity I always remember is the Mountain Meadows Massacre, when an emigrant wagon train was attacked and 120 men, women, and children were killed.
Worse yet, you'll paint an entire religion — and quite a large one, too — based on an event from 150 years ago? Three words for that: complete fucking bullshit.
Do you actually have any experience in Mormon communities? I have quite a bit myself, being in the middle of quite the LDS region (I live not that far north of Genoa, Nev., the site of the oldest Mormon settlement west of Illinois) and having once been engaged to a Mormon girl. Here's what I've found, generally speaking, to be true about Mormons: they are big believers in the importance of family; they are law-and-order people; and they are big on education and faith. In my world, none of these are bad things. About the worst I can say about the LDSers is that I have to shoo a couple of them off my porch once every six or eight weeks when they drop by to talk about the Book of Mormon. Big deal.
Now, am I saying that all LDSers are like this Molly and Norman Mormon picture I'm painting? Of course not. Unlike you, I will not paint with that broad of a brush. As I said above, these have been my general impressions after having spent most of a lifetime in a strong Mormon area and around Mormon families. I'm sure there are Mormons in my area who are, right now, doing less-than-wonderful things, but I'm also sure I can say the same thing about people in any other religious group you can name.
Seriously, you and SwordMaster need to get a fucking grip before you start in with more of your nonsense. You're both coming across like a couple of 12-year-olds with grudges. If you want to discuss religion, or even debate it, that's fine, but do some research and gather some facts (example: the LDS church has officially not sanctioned polygamy since 1890. So the very, very tiny percentage of Mormons who still practice it are part of splinter groups who are operating illegally and without church sanction. These are the types of groups who are profiled in the Krakauer book mentioned above. Great book, I've read it twice, but it represents the beliefs of about one-hundredth of one percent of all Mormons today. Do you guys even get this? Do you understand that no one is more ashamed of these radical idiots than the Mormons themselves?).
So, then: time to do your homework. Maybe come up with something better than a 150-year-old incident the next time you decide to rant about a subject you clearly know very little about. Fair warning: the next time you insult a number of people who I consider good friends (close to family, in some cases) with some weak-ass, childish bullshit, I will go off. I will light you up like the Fourth of July.
