What's new

LDS Church fined for contributions to Prop 8!! HA!

Vinylone, I know I can't win you over with miracles or answers to prayers. I can't swoon you with fancy King James English. You are a man of science. But what if I were to tell you that... I can make you taller?

Just give it some thought.

Jesus, just so you know, you died for your own sins...not mine.
 
lol... so are you arguing that state legislature / federal congress > god's word?

What about in the Netherlands? Sex trade is legal... If the Miller's sex trade profits came from their business in the Netherlands, is it fine to support the church with? I mean... It's legal there...

The church believes in free agency, sex trade goes against someone's free agency.

Its the only thing thats perfectly legal to give away, but once you slap a price tag on it... it becomes a felony.(ya that's an old George Carlin get-up...)
 
I meant voluntary prostitution... I'm pretty sure kidnapping and rape are illegal everywhere

I could care less about how you pay your tithing. What caught my eye, and the reason I decided to chime in, were your frequent references comparing your choices to those of the Miller group. If you were justifying your stock portfolio based on it being similar to theirs, then fine, not a second thought crosses my mind... but you are justifying your own spiritual and religious choices based on their choices.

Just incase you forgot, the Miller's are financial tycoons, not prophets!

This logic reminded me of an old proverb I once heard: If all your friends jumped off a tall building, would you jump to?

You're thinking that I was justifying my paying tithing because the Millers pay tithing on their total sales at the ESA which would include alchohol.

I was only giving them as an EXAMPLE that everyone would understand.

The same example would be for a Mormon restuarant owner that sells drinks.....or a Mormon gas station/grocery owner that sells beer or cigs. An example would be Macey's here in Utah.

So I am sorry that you misunderstood what I was saying. I forgive you.
