A FB friend of mine invited me to like a page, sponsored by the LDS church called Support Religious Freedom. It led me to this link from LDS Inc.
http://www.mormonnewsroom.org/article/religious-freedom-resourcesSo it looks like the church is now setting themselves up as a defender of religious freedom. Ironic, since they seemed to want to crush my right to religious freedom (i.e to disagree with them and believe differently) like a bug underfoot. In fact, how many of us have been threatened by leadership if we dared repeat anything that made the church look bad - even if it was true. Wake up Mormons - that isn't religious freedom. It's religious dictatorship. You are defending your right to believe what you want while forcing people who disagree with you to shut the hail up. If anyone DOES disagree with you, you scream PERSECUTION. You scream about your religious rights being taken away from you but terrorizing those who disagree with you is NOT a religious right.
Not to mention that the last thing non-LDS/inactives/exmos need is Mormons with another reason to think they are nobly defending their religious rights and howling about the wrong supposedly done to them.
