Come on CJ, where's the outrage?


They've expressed it.......by spray painting churches and sending an anthrax like substance through the mail. I don't agree with their tactics but maybe the Mormon church will stop throwing its financial weight around so indiscriminately.

Get the church out of people's personal lives! Man's religions sucks!

What was the extent of vandalism? Some spray paint? I mean, you say it is the equivalent of torching a church with people in it. Which, in general, is a right wing thing.

And then, somehow, you are taking protests against actions that the Mormon church took and generalized it to liberal rage against a Pentecostal church in Alaska. I suppose it is possible, but it seems to be a bit of a stretch. The Pentecost have no use for Mormons. And, I am sure that Mormons think the Pentecostals are flakes with their speaking in tongues and rolling around on the floor. So it isn't like the two are easy to confuse.
