I've never like Moore, but I'm not too keen on this Beverly Young person. Who keeps their yearbook handy year round for people to sign, she must have led a very dull life. Anyway, it looks like she added the time and place under the signature as if it was a badge of honor, how sad is that. Trotting Gloria Allred out was the worst thing this woman could have done. Something might have happened between the two, but I'm doubtful of her version.

When used as an adjective, the word "fundamentalist" can have that meaning. In this case, however, it's a part of the official name of Warren Jeffs' church and does not simply describe a subset of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Thanks for setting me straight.
No problem.

Quote:
So the Fundamentalist Church of Latter-day Saints is not associated with Latter-day Saints/Mormons?
They are an offshoot that formed a number of years ago, but the two groups have little in common. Whereas polygamy, for instance, is an integral part of the FLDS Church is it punishable by excommunication in the LDS Church.

Default The unbearable hypocrisy of Roy Moore's Christian rhetoric.

This is not Christianity. Rather, it is an extreme Republican religionism that stands by party and regressive policy no matter what. It's not the gospel of Christ, but a gospel of greed. It is the religion of racism and lies, not the religion of redemption and love.




In short, Moore's political agenda presents a credible threat to millions of vulnerable people in America. Yet Moore claims to be the moral and Christian candidate, using religion as U.S. slave masters did before him to justify actions which fly in the face of Christ's teachings.




Like segregationists, Moore imagines the struggle for equality in America as a story of loss. At a revival meeting earlier this week, Moore complained that he was being persecuted. He also lamented the fact that the courts took prayer out of schools in 1962 and made a cryptic and confusing reference to "new rights" created in 1965, the year the Voting Rights Act was signed. Some members of the congregation responded, "Amen!"




What is happening right now in Alabama matters for the soul of the nation. Anyone who has any influence must help blacks, progressive whites, and Latinos; gay and straight; Christians, Muslims, Jews, and all who want to move our country forward to get out and vote. This is no time to retreat or remain idle. We must stand up for truth in the public square and reclaim our political and faith traditions which have been hijacked.

The unbearable hypocrisy of Roy Moore's Christian rhetoric


Moore and Hillary Clinton keep on crying......oh the hypocrisy !


Since when is hypocrisy not a desirable trait in politicians?????


You would have to believe it is as it is as it is ignored by the media when committed by a liberal or democrat and a mortal sin when noticed in a republican.


Liberals eyesight is flawed as they can't see hypocrisy in front of them, only at a distance and in the opposing party.


The only regressive party is that of the democrats hate and fear mongering campaign creating enemies where there are none.


Moore may or may not be guilty..... in a court of law, law is intended to eliminate the prejudged conviction in the court of public opinion.


Hang him if he is guilty.


Moore is not representative of the republican party, except as presented in propaganda used to gin up hate and generate fear mongering by the democrats.... all to forward a political agenda.

It's not just Moore, look at Pence, the fundamentalist "Christian" who is a willing accomplice and enabler of Trump and lies just as easy as his boss does. The rightwing "Christian" of today's GOP is a huge fraud and all thinking people can see thru this transparent phoniness. Moore, however, takes it to a whole other level, because he uses religion as a cover to his sex crimes.

gloria is not to release the year book. She knows it was added after, they would be able to date the ink.

Think about it folks, she says she has the evidence the moore knew her, but won't release it until there is a investigation. If you wanted to prove something, to make moore really get out of the race, why not have it authenticated, slap the last nail in the coffin....

She won't release it because she knows she'll be caught in a lie....

Students wag yearbooks around quite a bit.Why would she add the time and place? Remember he tried to force her to give head. You seem more swayed by her attorney being alred..

Let's just act like there never was a yearbook. You would still call her and all the other women and those verifying their accounts INCLUDING an attorney that worked with her liars.
