I am thinking of suggestioning that they rename mormon politics "intellectual wasteland". After two days of posting my "why do they hate us" post, NOT one person has responded!

This in a supposed group of people who are interested in politics!

Is it any wonder, with such apathy, why America does what it does and why so many people are scared about us and hate us so much?

intellectual wasteland.

Once again, I am ashamed to call myself American

I think if I would have fit into church more, I would never have left.

Who knows, I am just glad that I am gone:

Read this posting from this self righteous woman:

http://www.livejournal.com/users/oboeonthefalls/22358.html

Despite everything I wrote to her, she still came away that I was evil, she prominently mentioned that I was atheist, and infered that I had the spirit of the devil.

I was the cause of a break off of the LDS church (web blog)

Fasinating how this soap opera plays out, which I caused (illusions of grandure):

lds_church community:
"Yes, and no. While we will not deter anyone from being a member of that said community, we are trying to stabilize a better environment in which to discuss. A number of people have found said community to be a little out of control, and we just want to be a little more prudent with our moderating on this community.

There will be a little bit of a difference- you will see more of us moderators. The rules will be followed in this community, but we also will encourage, open minded, uplifting discussions. Do not feel like you have to censor yourselves; as long as you follow the rules, I think we will find that we will all get along well."
http://www.livejournal.com/community/lds_church/1776.html

Rules:

"Do keep in mind though, that this IS an LDS community- if you come here with ill intentions (i.e creating contention for no reason, etc) then you may want to reconsider. We have a no tolerance policy on anti literature of any kind, be it toward the LDS church or any other church for that matter. Please be respectful enough to allow us live our lives the way we wish, and we in turn will give you the same respect. Those who do not respect this, will of course, be banned."

# We have no a tolerance policy on drama. Don't be a trouble maker, don't start a post just for the sake of getting replies, or getting reactions. Be kind to one another, and just because you don't agree with someone, doesn't give you the right to attack them. Remember the golden rule.

# Do not chastise others. It is not our place to make judgements, and no one likes a self righteous person, religious or not.

# No false doctrine. Enough said.

1. NO PROFANITY Please, in all your posts try to refrain from cursing. If you wouldn't feel comfortable saying it in front of your Bishop, then don't. If you feel comfortable cursing in front of your Bishop, please just respect the guideline.

3. RESPECT OTHER RELIGIONS Look up the 11th Article of Faith. We do believe that other religions should be respected and be allowed to do as they wish. We can't expect others to respect us if we don't respect them.

4. KEEP AN OPEN MIND Nothing is more frustrating then listening to someone who just won't see it any other way. We are very diverse, and interpret things differently depending on where we are with our own testimonies. No one is wrong for being at a different place of growth. No one is ever wrong for having a different point of view. Say it with me now- RESPECT.

So the Mormon wasn't pure Mormon enough, cause of me, and so they created there own church (web blog).

Erik turned out not to be too bad:

(Comments at bottom).

Although he has exiled himself:
Just got home from work. They don't like me over at Mormon Politics. I don't think they like me in the Mormon community either. I was a problem to them. I therefore resign for the time being to the semi-seclusive comfort of this personal livejournal.... mmm, like the warmth of a hot tub, and the security of your own bed.

And of course, there is dear oboeonthefalls post:

http://www.livejournal.com/users/oboeonthefalls/22358.html

I think she really beleives I am the Anti-Christ.

Man, I guess you reap what you sow, huh bro, contention begots contention.

I think I am going to ask the moderator to ban me from mormon_politics too, I don't like the evil spirit there. ;-) (which I caused)

I really blasted that guy when he criticized my gi joe posting.
http://www.livejournal.com/community/mormon_politics/9622.html
...which was a running joke on Erik.

I was surprised how harsh I was too new_iconoclast.

Oh Cory, I miss Malta, just one weekend in Malta and I would be in such a serile, calm mood.

I miss my friends in Ukraine.

I miss not bothering to think about religion or politics.

I don't like to argue, no one likes contention, especially Mormons! (obviously!) But I feel so much a "stranger in a strange land". I don't connect to people here in America. That is where the real contention lies, in my own heart and soul.

I miss you bro, and drew also. You guys are not as passionate as I am with my beleifs, but at least you are not judgemental and more open to new ideas.

I miss Amber most of all.

Before it was annoying on this board, but now it is rather refreshing how "nice" mormons are. Genrally, the group as a whole really have a spirit of peace and love.

haha. how arrogant of you.

you're not the source, be it known. i know because i co-created the community. sorry to disappoint you.

love,
exxon

oh, and p.s. "So the Mormon wasn't pure Mormon enough, cause of me, and so they created there own church (web blog)."
You should probably learn correct grammar so that you don't make yourself look like a complete idiot.
