Seriously, stop spamming the race card, it makes it some the term "racist" doesn't mean anything anymore.

If you need such loosy logic to prove GB is not a white supremacist, then I'd go and guess it was very hard for you to disprove that claim.

No it was actually Kraichgauer that played the race card:

How about we see you try to disprove the accusation that you are a racist? There is a reason why the burden of proof is on the accuser not the defendent in a trial.

I thought that this was well known

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_peop ... t_movement

Quote:

... leaders of the major Latter Day Saint movement denomination, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, continued to welcome all people regardless of color to be members; however, they began to exclude most people of black African descent (regardless of actual skin color) from Priesthood ordination and from participation in temple ceremonies. These practices continued until September 30, 1978, when church President Spencer W. Kimball, acting in his office as Living Prophet declared that in early June 1978 he had received a revelation from God to extend the priesthood to all worthy male members and, therefore, to extend temple ordinances to all worthy members.

Other variations of the Latter Day Saint movement dealt with the issue differently. The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and other Mormon fundamentalist groups continue the practice of exclusion based on race.

...

The first reference in Latter Day Saint writings describing dark skin as a curse and mark from God refers to Lamanites. The Book of Mormon, published in the late 1820s, states the following about a group of people who rebelled against God:
And [God] had caused the cursing to come upon them, yea, even a sore cursing, because of their iniquity. For behold, they had hardened their hearts against him, that they had become like unto a flint; wherefore, as they were white, and exceedingly fair and delightsome, that they might not be enticing unto my people, the Lord God did cause a skin of blackness to come upon them. And thus saith the Lord God; I will cause that they shall be loathsome unto thy people, save they shall repent of their iniquities." (2 Nephi 5:21)

If it works, it's not spamming. Just ask Daigo about his fireball usage.

The fundamentalist groups yes, read official declaration-2 in the Doctrine and Covenants & that backs up President Kimball.

Hate? Based on the article that Panda posted, it sounds like the driving force behind his message is love... of money. :D

A more interesting question to me is whether someone who says controversial things because they believe them should be judged more or less harshly than someone who says the same things because it pays by people who disagree. Take Trump and Birtherism; IMHO it's a stupid issue and I don't tend to think highly of people who espouse it, but the Donald is brilliantly exploiting it to get paid. Is that better or worse than actually being a Birther? Honestly I don't know where to come down on it, ideologue vs mercenary.


Actually, I think there is a bit of a misunderstanding here. I was referring to a particular holy roller (name escapes me - sorry) who's posing as a constitutional scholar, with ties to white supremacists, and the so called White Christian Identity Movement who Glenn Beck, and several high ranking Republicans are paling around with.

This holy roller cracker, David Barton I believe his name is, has spoken at an event held by people involved with the white Christian identity movement, known for their Antisemitism and racism. Barton later claimed he didn't know about his hosts racial views - when it was made public. That is a matter of record.
As for Barton's association with Glenn Beck - Beck has in fact called him the most important individual in the world.
And I have to ask, just where did you get the notion that white supremacists hate Mormons? Maybe, at one time you could have made that point, but in more recent years racist groups are now even recruiting among Catholics like the Metzgers (father and son hate team), so they're open to anyone white. As a matter of fact, I recall reading years ago how one former recruiter for racist groups said Mormons and Baptists were particularly easy to reach because they were raised to be so conservative.

Glen Beck is not a Mormon.
Mormons are anarchist utopian socialists.
Karl Marx's sponsor when he moved to Britian was a Mormon.
there were Mormons at the 4th international.
Plotino Contantino Rhodakanaty was a Mormon
A link to a mormon anarchist Newspaper.
the tolstoyians sang mormon hymns.
they run their own sectarian welfare state.
there is no way that Glenn Beck is a Mormon
that is a libel either to Glenn or the mormons I am not sure which.

Beck is a church member, him following the LDS official way is up for debate. Personal If I was one of his priesthood leaders I'll put a flea in his ear for the crap he comes out with . Some of your points I don't have knowledge on to question. Yes the church as a welfare programme that helps both church members & non members. If your referring to the law of consecration then yes it can been seen a socialist system, anarchist that's questionable.

I would have said that there are most likely no quotations nor actions from me that even suggest so and that the burden of proof is on the one accusing me.

I would avoid trying to do something like "Racists hate Atheists. I am an atheist, therefore I am not racist".

It is very loosy logic.

* "Do all racists hate atheists? This is a big assumption
* Just because you are hated by group X does it mean you don't belong to it? That's a leap of logic that is not very good either.

No, I think he would make you look like an idiot, and completely deflate your arguments. These days being called racist doesn't mean a damn thing. Democrats and liberals have spammed the race card to the point nobody cares if someone is called a racist, because odds are it is just another smear, sad part is when someone is actually practicing racism nobody will believe the accuser anymore.

"proof" <---(meaning strong evidence)
that ina does not actually read what some wrote before accusing them of playing the race card.

Mormons are socialists, they covenent to socialize all their belongings and labor to the collective.
(this is what happens in their secret temples)
Mormons are anarchists, meaning they do this outside of the scope of the state.
The mormon anti-communism of the 60's was a form of partisan in fighting.
(xtian anarchists vs atheist stalanists)
either Beck does not understand this or he is a false flag operation.
a secret leftist sent by Salt Lake to undermine Fox News.

and not a racist.

if you don't think that mormons are secret leftists read this paper.
