Why does she put you in such a rage?


Who said I'm "in a rage?" I was sitting here quite, calm, and placid as I wrote that post.

Harmony is an apostate fraud who remains in the church to poison and corrupt the faith and testimony of others, and to pull them out of the gospel and into her own apostate world of self righteous and self serving bigotry.

She lies through her teeth to obtain Temple recommends so that she may continue her pose of "faithful" Latter day Saint before friends and her ecclesiastical leaders, but here, and in other forums, the real person behind the mask is revealed (anonymously, of course).

This probably doesn't bother you the way it bothers, and, indeed, angers on occasion, people such as myself, for obvious reasons.

I know some other people in my personal life, and indeed, in my own family, just as immoral, just as fraudulent, just as lacking in integrity, just as phony, and just as sanctimoniously high and mighty when putting on their act of pious moral superiority for the consumption of others, and perhaps I've just run out of patience with it.


Do your priesthood leaders know about your heterodox views?

I doubt they would allow any homodox views unless you vowed not to think about them.

Some points to note:
1. You will notice that the Church in Great Britain spent £11 million more in 2009 than it received in income. In other words an £11 million loss (including the £6.5m transfer of Irish assets)
2. No tithing was spent on helping the poor and the needy nor humanitarian aid.
3. 19 Church employee's each received significantly more than 5 times the amount spent on humanitarian aid.
4. This financial information will have been available to the people who made the decision that members needed the blessings of cleaning the Chapel rather than employing the janitors etc.


*All of this financial information for 2009 is published and publically available*

Some points to note on some points to note:
1. You seem disappointed that the church did not post a "profit" in Great Britain
2. You seem to negate "fast offerings" and the contributions of the Bishop's storehouse.
3. ? . I also made more money than i contributed to humanitarian aid, how about you?
4. But janitors are more than welcome to become members. And for the record, i don't pay anyone to clean my house either.

Is there something scandalous or nefarious seen in the numbers posted, or am i missing a larger point?
thank you
