But Jezebel, the Scarlet Harlot of Babalon that we all carry within our psycholgoical space, is a different story.
It is a downfall to NOT throw her out of the window of the mind.
Respect ALL women? Yes or no? All women means ALL women! The way you feel about women makes me wonder what your sexual orientation truly is...
The Black Lodge is the Dark Side of the Illuminati we could say.
shut your mouth.
Gnosism.
I don't even know how this came up within a discussion about the tragedies of child abuse.

And at other times one ought to emulate the Wrathful Buddhas, against the enemies of the Dharma, such as stiff-necked homosexuals and their supporters:
So homosexuality, which is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, is a violation of Hu-Man rights!

I'm simply answering the objections to my posts that were originally in the direct context of the topic of this thread.
The church is so concerned about its public
image," Sandra Scott charged, "that it hide the truth from me that it had
recycled a known pedophile into a position of authority in the church where he
had unlimited access to young children."
The church claimed throughout the litigation that it had a constitutional
right to "wipe the slate clean" of any member who had "repented" for his abuse
of children and had been forgiven by the church.

Wow, and listen to this:

The Mormon Church really does think they're God. I don't think the Constitution gives anyone the right to play God, not even a Judge.
Arcanum 17: Hope
Wherefore I say unto you, all manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy (fornication) against the Holy Ghost (the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in Yesod-Sex) shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speaks a word against the Son of Man (the Atom Nous in the Heart), it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaks against the Holy Ghost (the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in Yesod-Sex creates Kamaduro and) it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world (of Assiah-Malkuth), neither in the world to come (Eden, the Promised Land). - Matthew 12:31-37
The church claimed throughout the litigation that it had a constitutional
right to "wipe the slate clean" of any member who had "repented" for his abuse
of children and had been forgiven by the church.
"The case is unusual not only because the church disclosed the amount of the settlement, in advance of news conferences by the plaintiffs' lawyers today, but also because it centers on alleged abuse by a man who held no ministerial or leadership role. That man died in 1995." -NY Times, Sept 5th, 2001
Mr. Curtis had been previously excommunicated after being accused of molesting children. But when he came to live with the Scotts, his membership had been restored and he held the title of high priest. He had not been criminally charged with abuse at that point, but later pleaded guilty to molesting Mr. Scott --NY Times, Sept 5th, 2001

Not necessarily.
FreeMasonry, it is said, was originally a gift to humanity from the Great White Brotherhood.
But the Black Lodge from Klipoth exists as well.
Gnosism.

It was in the context of Black Lodge VS White Lodge in regard to the existence of such things as child abuse, homosexuality, etc.; the latter tragedies existing because of the Black Lodge.

Because of the practice of polygamy there was a shortage of women in Utah. The competition for those who were not married became intense, and many men were marrying girls who were very young. On page 607 of her book, Stenhouse commented about the matter: "That same year [1872], a bill was brought into the Territorial Legislature, providing that boys of fifteen years of age and girls of twelve might legally contract marriage, with the consent of their parents or guardians
George D. Smith did a great deal of research on polygamy in the early years of Mormonism. He discovered that Joseph Smith was not only sealed to a fourteen-year-old girl, but also to a fifteen-year-old girl and to two girls who were sixteen years old. All of these sealings to young girls occurred when Joseph Smith was between thirty-seven and thirty-eight years of age.
In his article George Smith included a list of 153 men who took plural wives in the early years of the Mormon Church. When we examined this list, we noted that two of the young girls were only thirteen years old when they were lured into polygamy. Thirteen girls were only fourteen years old. Twenty-one were fifteen years old, and fifty-three were sixteen years old
