This is not Bills site, I am Bobby Gilpin, and run this site, I am in a full time secular job, and do this in my spare time. However I see no problem with people making their living from resourcing others to share the gospel.
I Appreciate you believe that the LDS church is true and I respect your right to believe that, I also think there are many good reasons to strongly doubt the truth claims of the LDS church, I hope you have a good look around this site, please comment on anything you like.
and yes, the LDS church does seem to love making their good deeds known to the world don’t they. I have never known a religious organisation to be as publicity focused. I wonder what happens with the many billions that they also have from their members (expected) tithes, do you know? Are they as transparent about that too?
On the subject of priest craft, are you aware that the bible clearly states that the Old Testament priests lived off the tithes. See numbers 18:21
It’s pure hypocrisy that the LDS church speaks against paid clergy when the general authorities are just that. Are you aware of any of the 12 being in secular jobs? They of course are not.
Appreciate your comment, hope to talk more.
]]>Last month, I attend the Nauvoo Pageant with my family (we missed the British Pageant just the night before) and there was one man handing out what was designed to look identical to the official programs, but were instead full of Anti-Mormon messages. I thought, “Wow! Here is a proclaimed Christian using deceit and being derogatory in the way he seeks to teach about Christ!” Then there were others shouting as loud as they could how we were all going to hell. I really appreciated the bagpipe players drowning them out with their Scottish tunes. Of course there were also the big signs damning us to hell also.
I think the only “leaving us alone” LDS may ask for is from those who are demeaning, derogatory, deceitful and mean-spirited. Otherwise – we love to talk about our faith in Jesus Christ and even hear about yours in a mutually respectful way.
]]>The motivation you feel to proselyte us Mormons is the same love that motivates us to proselyte you.
There is a strong distinction between your approach and that of the in-your-face yellers and screamers who stand on the street trying to provoke us to anger and to disrupt our gatherings.
