1. this is way too much like...
Edited on Thu Nov-13-08 02:40 PM by Mesteryo
Listing Jewish owned companies. This line of attack on an entire religion is disgusting.

On Edit: The OP added that these are businesses run by the actual Mormon church not just Mormon individuals.

4. your concern would be better placed
telling the mormons to stay out of people's private lives, its way too much like telling jews who they can and cant marry.

6. apples to oranges...
Not every Mormon supported prop 8 so bashing Mormons is no different than bashing all Jews.

7. the mormons who didnt support prop 8
should quit the church, if they dont they are supporting the churches actions against gay people and thus are legitimate targets. the mormons took it upon themselves to get in this fight, if they didnt want the backlash they should have stayed out of it.

8. that's silly...
That's like saying Jews who remain Jewish when their synagogues support Israel are legitimate targets for people who dislike Israel.

You can't say you support religious freedom when the 2 options are leave your religion or be attacked.

9. first off
conflating the minor irritation the mormons are suffering to whats happened to the jews is ridiculous and quite frankly disgusting. second, i never said i supported religious freedom, the only religious freedom i support is freedom FROM religion. get back to the temple little one and tell the elders of mormon you have failed.
