Bonneville International and Black Lives Matter

Post by Atrasado »

So I ran across this story today in Yahoo Sports (scroll down the story). It turns out that a Church-owned business has been enforcing BLM by firing offenders of this philosophy. The story states,
When former NBA center DeMarcus Cousins asked longtime Sacramento Kings announcer Grant Napear in the summer of 2020 what he thought of the Black Lives Matter movement, Napear responded on Twitter: “All Lives Matter: Every Single One!”

Napier was fired later that week.
Later it says,
Napear, in the complaint, alleges he was terminated “because he is a Caucasian man who published a phrase on social media that [Bonneville International] contends violated the company’s ad hoc [but unpublished] policy supporting Black Lives Matter.
As a Church member, I protest this firing. It is just wrong. If a person can't say all lives matter then does that mean my life doesn't matter because I'm not black? How about my wife and children's lives? Do they not matter? Don't give me that garbage about this time and movement being about blacks and not whites so we don't need to mention whites, asians, polynesians, or hispanics, etc. This is not about slavery or racism. If it were, then wouldn't they be protesting the Africans that sold them into slavery? Wouldn't they also be protesting the black slaveholders that owned other African-Americans? If it were about racism, wouldn't they be making common cause with other minorities? No, this is about division and hatred and Jesus didn't teach hatred, He taught love.

That the Church (trust me--Bonneville International wouldn't have dared to do this without at least tacit GA approval) has been enforcing this communist philosophy by firing people only reinforces my determination to leave the CES. How can we sustain this worldly mess?

This is just more evidence against the church for their shameful behavior in recent years.

My negative feelings are in part because of the sacrifice many of my ancestors made for the church and the restored gospel. Leaving homes and families in Britain, serving in the Mormon Battalion, spending the entire time in Liberty Jail with Joseph, settling in Southern Utah which was another case of leaving friends behind.

I thought I was born-and-bred, through and through, a Mormon, and now it’s all just a victory for Satan, in more ways than just the use of the word “Mormon”.

Shame on them.

At least they can’t take my testimony of Christ and the Book of Mormon, and so much more, away from me like they can take my temple recommend.

Which business relevant to this does the church own? How is Bonneville International involved? Do they own the radio station Grant worked at?

The church owns or manages about 20 radio stations across the country.

This link has the email address of Matthew Sadowski. I wrote his an email expressing my disappointment in the decision to fire him over this. His response was, "Thank you for your e-mail. The decision we made was very difficult, and we truly wish Grant well going forward. I appreciate your input and wish you all the best."

Every organization that the church owns is evil to the core. For instance the world has never seen a more fake news station than KSL They are strictly forbidden to tell a truth.

Just the simple fact that the church donates money to BLM proves that they agree completely with their ideals and goals. BLM and NAACP are both simply arms of satan.

Of course the church endorsed fags and abortions. In fact Uchtdorf personally made several donations to finance several abortions.

Of course, giving clot shots in chapels proves that the church loves satan and wants to help him overthrow the Almighty God's plan of Salvation. This is no different than opening up chapels to kill people born or unborn.

There are people that do not believe that RMN is a full blown dedicated disciple of satan and only acts satanic and endorses satanic procedures and policies because he has bull blown dementia and is dumber that joe biden. But, we know that RMN is fully aware of the WEF and UN's plans to control the world and that he is in total agreement. We know this for a fact because he even donated tithing money to make it so.

Now that the church has lowered the age of people to be killed to include children, RMN has challenged God to put a mill stone around his neck. God has incredible patience and will do things in His own time.

To believe that the church is being operated according to the instructions of Jesus Christ requires one to be an idiot.
