personal attack.

Of course the really funny ironic part is that this is so stereotypical of your responses and tactics on here -
To be quite blunt....the vast portion of your posts are based on false premises....which you yourself have admitted to time after time (for example that government lies)....
How do you manage to reach the tenuous conclusion that by my saying the government has lied (at least at times it has), that I have based that view on a "false premise"? Isn't that what you and the Truther cabal say
ad nauseam--that the government has lied? Or are you reversing/revising your position?
[. . . and yet sincere seekers of the truth have patiently (and not so patiently) replied to your continual stream of posts (the saga) on here in an effort to present
the truth as we know it.[underlining added]
I have tried to present the truth as
others know it. Is there something illegal or morally unacceptable about that? Why do you imagine that your "truth,"
as you know it, supercedes the truth of all others as
they know it?
LOL...very funny and deeply ironic coming from someone who "imagines" fire wiping out 10 floors of a building (concrete, steel, etc) all at once such that it vaporizes allowing the structure above to free fall through air... You truly are a useful idiot....

you.
You are an idiot and a liar. You have no credible information from well-respected sources....you have spam and junk propaganda....and when you've been pushed on it....you lie and fail to deliver (see attachment at the conclusion of this post from other thread).

BlueMoon5 wrote:Jason wrote: Its like the eugenics discussions. Not once do you address the principles or lack thereof....
That is far afield of the the truth.
What I said, in summary, was that the program was well-intentioned; and
that it did, indeed, help some desperately poor women (some in fragile health) who were single mothers already burdened with six or more children. I also said that the program involved some abuses, and
I cited the case of a woman who was sterilized even though she didn't have any children or perhaps only one child (she was the subject of a recent TV documentary).
I said that was "evil." Your characterization of my posts re. the eugenics program is
false--a gross distortion. Note to viewers: Enter "eugenics" into "Search" and see, for yourselves, what I
actually said about the program.
Yes...viewers....please follow his advice. In fact click his name, search user posts, then search "eugenics"....and what do we find -
BlueMoon5 wrote:Eugenics, for example, as "sick" as it sounds today, was actually well-intentioned. Some women were having six, seven, eight children by different fathers, and the states were having to support those women. So, the decision was made to sterilize them. Were there abuses? Absolutely. Many women were not informed that they were being sterilized, and their signatures were forged on the consent forms (or simply signed by an administrator).

Where do they get that "right"? In their laws. Where did states involved in the eugenics program get the authority to do what they did--and in secret? I have already told you, the program was legal. Was it moral? No. You might as well ask, Where did certain southern states get the right to discriminate against blacks before the Civil Rights Act? Discriminatory language was written into their laws.
Under Hitler, it was "legal" to experiment on human beings by, among other atrocious acts, injecting them with deadly diseases. Some victims were told the injections would improve their health. Note, however, the following: "The current care of patients with infectious diseases owes a tremendous debt to healthy volunteers who allowed investigators to induce a disease in them for the study of transmission, natural history, and treatment" (Oxford Journals, "Infectious Disease Experimentation Involving Human Volunteers," Nov. 13, 2001). Obviously, the risks were fully disclosed to those volunteers. My point, though, is that even if the risks had not been disclosed, what was learned would have been just as medically valuable. I am NOT advocating that approach; I'm simply pointing out that disclosure, by itself, does not affect the usefulness of such an enterprise.
I think you know the answers as well as I do. For Hitler, Stalin, Saddam, Pol Pot, etc., there were no restraints; they were the ultimate authorities to make "such decisions". . .the "ultimate authors." Who would "instigate such behavior"? Principally, I believe, psychopathic personalities. The people who instigated the eugenics movement were not, to my knowledge, psychopathic; they sincerely believed--misled though they were--that they were making a positive contribution to society. Alfred Kinsey, on the other hand, postured himself as a serious human sexuality researcher; he was, in fact, a pedophile.

If there's anything satanic about that scenario it relates principally to the sperm donors, not to the eugenics program proper.
As I have said before, Jason, it seems to me that you consistently overlook the fact that a middle ground exists re. difficult issues; i.e., not everything has to be polarized.
Please visit the Church's online Gospel Library and open "Birth Control." There you will find the following statement:
"When husband and wife are physically able, they have the privilege and responsibility to bring children into the world and to nurture them. . . . Husband and wife are encouraged to pray and counsel together as they plan their families. Issues to consider include the physical and mental health of the mother and father and their capacity to provide the basic necessities of life for their children."
What do you think the health/financial status was of many of the poor women who were burdened with caring for 6+ children without the help of a husband?

The church states (above): "Husband and wife are encouraged to pray and counsel together as they plan their families. Issues to consider include the physical and mental health of the mother and father and their capacity to provide the basic necessities of life for their children." Many/most of the women in the eugenics program were not LDS and did not have husbands. Furthermore, most of those women were dirt-poor, victims of a variety of mental and physical ailments, and (once again) already burdened with too many children. Additionally, some had no understanding of birth control. So, if an LDS couple, as a result of praying and fasting--based on church counsel--determines that they should not have more children, is that wickedness? Is that a direct violation of their inalienable rights? Your understandable rejoinder will be, "Of course not; they had full disclosure."
The designers of the eugenics program, seeing the plight of certain women, and seeing that they had no one to whom they could turn (and, yes, recognizing the burden they were placing on the welfare system), took the initiative to come to their aid and did so with the best of intentions. Did that constitute wickedness? What if disclosure had been given to the women? How many of them, given their desperate circumstances, would have said, in effect, "Oh, no, I want more children--seven isn't enough!" I don't pretend to know the answer, but I can make a well-reasoned guess. And what of the children born in abject poverty without a father for a role model? What would the future hold for them--and for society? Your characterization of the eugenics program as wickedness per se (I'll cut your some slack) is unreasonable and unfair. You don't know even a tenth of the circumstances; you weren't there. Were there abuses? Of course; a recent TV documentary tells the heart-rending story of a woman who, as I recall,
didn't have any children and was still sterilized--and without her knowledge.
I think that's indefensible; and
yes, I think that's wickedness.
viewtopic.php?f=19&t=20037&p=241646&hilit=+eugenics#p241646...so you are justifying or excusing wickedness? Just wanted to clarify that for you (I'm sure its obvious to the other "viewers")

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=14104&p=243517&hilit=+eugenics#p243517Isn't wickedness and satanic one and the same? Or is that the wordsmith in you???
Again it was not sanctioned of God and it was done against their will (i.e. without their knowledge or consent)...i.e. wickedness or satanic. Now what did Moroni say about judging by the fruits?
Speaking of fruits...more specifically lies....I digress we'll shortly get back to that point.
BlueMoon5 wrote:I never said it was "right." I said it was well intentioned, and its designers were not evil men and women. You might want to read The Rise and Fall of Silas Lapham, by the American realist author William Dean Howells (1837-1920). Howells believed our individual acts have a cascading effect on society, and he demonstrates in Lapham the mechanism by which that happens. My point: A single woman with six childen who has yet another child to be added to the welfare rolls affects not only her physical and mental well-being, but all of society's. If there was divine justification for Nephi to do what he did to Laban (and I believe there was), is it reasonable to claim that there was no justification for the eugenics program?
BlueMoon5 wrote:Jason wrote: You cry and whine when someone calls you a liar....when your approach is inherently dishonest.
The more relevant point is that what justification is there for you--or anyone else--to have the arrogance and temerity to call me a liar (which you and LIT have done
repeatedly?) The fact that my "truth" conflicts with your "truth" does not make me a liar, nor does it make me "inherently dishonest."
Its hard to conflict truths when you don't have any.....I'll add more on the liar note in a minute...
