Mormons are not invading catholic churches, mocking the religion and cutting the head off your statues. It was an isolated incident. However, if a rather drunken catholic is caught peeing on the outside wall of a mormon chapel, I will be sure to mention it on this forum and equate all catholics peeing on lds chapels.
I was just trying to respond to the poster who made glaring generalizations about all mormons. It was an isolated incident and the lds church apologized for the incident and the young men will experience church discipline and also perhaps the law of the land.
Personally, I don’t think every incident makes it up to them or even to the Mission President. If they don’t know it happened then they can’t address it.
Apparently, some Mormons are now making up false stoires about Catholics being drunk around Mormon chapels.
Right, right.
Well I served as a Missionary (ironically where this happened and knew those guys) and have to say that I’m not sueing everyone that made a mockery of my Church or beliefs. I was spit on, had beer bottles thrown at me, called words starting with “F” and ending with “aggot” and given the finger many different times. Too bad that I don’t have photos of that “allegedly” happening to me because that would make a great court case. I don’t know what denomination they were, but does it matter?
Good accusations LaMar but unfortunately no proof, just ill will toward the lds faith. I think LaMar you will need to come clean about your antimormonism. I have seen it on the exmormon boards and I am sure that you hang out on those boards. Your posts have a tinge of disrespect and mocking and what is sad is that it is taking place on this thread.
Trust me the ‘catholics’ on this thread do not want to hear or read about it. They seem to be intent on belittling and mocking the lds church as their own sign of disrespect on a thread about disrespect.
Why, all of them, of course. It’s a big conspiracy between the Catholics, the anti-Mormons, Satan, and me.Good accusations LaMar but unfortunately no proof, just ill will toward the lds faith.

What antimormon boards do you hang out on?
Do you know for a fact that he didn’t break the statue? Because if he did, then that is vandalism, and it is a criminal act.
Not turning the other cheek would be calling for vengeance. If the kid broke the statue, he also broke the law, and he needs to be held accountable. That is not vengeance, it is common sense.
I’m sorry you were spit on, that is horrible.
I see no conspiracy just insincerity. Many of your posts are generalizations without the needed evidence. You also come across as bitter and sour toward the lds faith. You just need to come clean about your intentions for posting.
Well, the boys themselves put the pictures up. Underneath the photo of the headless icon there was a caption that read “[so and so] beheaded a Saint!”
Yep. I agree with this part. Thanks for posting.
I am still trying to figure just how the head hadn’t fallen off the statue for nearly two years. There must have been great weather for those two years. I would think that the head would have eventually fell to the ground and been noticed by catholics going to the shrine.
Nobody said it wasn’t noticed. It could have been noticed the very next day for all we know. But that doesn’t mean whoever noticed it could have known how it happened or why. Two years later, someone finds photos on the internet of a nice, clean-cut Mormon missionary with the statue’s head in his hands, and the mystery is solved.
I have far more respect than you do. I see the church as fallible and I am taking this (admittedly anonymous) opportunity to call the church to repentance. At the same time, I can cop to a bit of the collective guilt we all share when our representatives behave badly, and express some sincere regret.I see no conspiracy just insincerity.

You certainly have no respect for those things lds.
But at least I have been honest with who I am. Your posts are disrespectful toward not only the mormon church but toward mormons in general when you generalize conspiracy theories among the lds and its missionaries. You show no ‘collective guilt’ at all but you do show a tinge of bitterness toward the lds and their religion.
LOL!!! I can’t Believe YOU said that! yes we have a winner. We see you worshipping JS on the MADB as well. You seem to be okay with the anticatholics there. what about your own intentions for posting? when are you coming clean?I see no conspiracy just insincerity.
