Mormons to riot!!!

[SoyLeche]

This scandal can only end in a riot - http://www.abc4.com/news/local/story.aspx?content_id=05c2898c-f108-4631-9a72-4435f2f6d360

I predict that this weekend Mormons will come from all parts of the world and congregate on Temple Square to protest this travesty.

They will all be dressed nicely too

If it is in fact copyrighted - no.

What is the point of this ad anyway, except perhaps to tick off/make fun of Mormons.

Are you copyrighted???

I think I'm going to put a tie on and join the riot!

Maybe

 

[RevOxley_501]

do you think that is a godly thing to do?

I don't think God will have a problem with it.

I'm confused as to why you think there's going to be a riot; from what the article said, the guy plans to stop using the image.

The riot comment is a joke. The liklihood of Mormons rioting about anything is non-existant.

I don't think so either. They wouldn't sue for money, just to make the guy stop using their image. There is nothing wrong with protecting your property and copywrited images are property. I cannot imagine what could be considered "ungodly" about that...

But Mormons will be converging on SLC this weekend

The timing was just too good on this for me to pass up. I was going to come back next week with pictures of the "riot".

Whoops, sorry. :cover: My sarcasm meter is off as of late.

Dang, sorry to mess it up.

(BTW - I bet we are ever so close to 13 million members this conference report, pretty cool).

That's all right - I didn't expect anyone to bite anyway. I thought one of my fellow LDS RFers would enter sooner than you did

What is this country coming to. I am glad to see the LDS church stand up and defend themselves. There are many non LDS people who are offended as well.

Even when I was a mormon, I would not have found the image insulting. The church needs to differentiate between parody (which is acceptable even with a copyrighted image) and insult.

Just my opinion but I think some are being a little precious. It is only an image. Nothing particularly sacred about it. Only humans are capable of being sanctified.
