Use the word "some," as in some Mormons are retarded, or some Americans are retarded, or some engineers are retarded, or some chefs are retarded, or my personal favorite, some Ute Fans are retarded.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.

How about this?

Every group of people in the world has someone YOU don't like. Do you hate all of them?

If you're prepared to "hate the church" (whatever that means) over the opinions of a few of its members, you're in for a sad life.

It's a "religion" post, so you have to be logged into the board to read it.

Do you hate our nation, with the Timothy McVeighs, and other whackos?

I see them as being well-meaing but misguided, but so am I at times. His opinion will harm nobody, and Havili will go on his way doing whatever he pleases.

Hate for this Institution guided by fallible people? So should only infallible people be allowed to participate?

The link works, but if you're not a donor you can't see religous posts. The gist of the post is that Stanley Havili, by choosing to go to USC, is forsaking his baptismal covenants.

I'm guessing you'd be hard pressed to search and not find dumbasses and idiots in every religion or sect of society.

obviously what i said was a little dramatic....

i unintentionally worded my post wrong, my bad.

it is difficult for me to believe that people who claim to participate in the one true gospel of christ would actually question the spiritual decisions a kid in high school is making.

i should have said, a large majority of us dont really live our religion properly.

If it was said by Gordon B Hinckley, maybe you'd have a legitimate beef.
