I'm very interested in hearing about his decision to resign. I wonder if it was prompted by additional church discipline coming down the pike or recommendation to do so by a PH leader, or if he finally just had enough?

Simply asking a person of faith to square the God of the First Vision with the God of the Last Vision. The God of the First Vision is a loving Heavenly Father who condescended to stoop near to earth to answer the sincere prayer of a 14 year old farm boy regarding how he should worship.

I learned that the Holy Ghost can contradict the Spirit of Christ from the Nephi kills Laban story.

I have searched the Maxwell Institute site, but I am not good at finding the information there. I have seen the FAIR pages on wi...

I know this is pretty basic stuff, but am I correct in assuming that the consensus amongst LDS apologists at Maxwell house and FAIR is that Lehi's band intermarried and effected a political takeover of sorts amongst pre-existant Native peoples in mesoamerica? In a conversation on another interweb fo...
