Re: Prophets can't explain the Book of Mormon, they ask the experts to, scholars!
He says the prophets are "declarers" not "explainers." But that is a modern change in order to add plausible deniability. They were "explainers" plenty of times before the last decade or so. They just realize now that their explanations are easily criticized with the Internet and not just taken at ...

Prophets can't explain the Book of Mormon, they ask the experts to, scholars!
I listened to this podcast today while commuting. Start at 48:00 minutes to about 54:10. 'Prophet's ask the experts (scholars) instead of trying to become experts themselves.' When I got home I had to listen to this part again to make sure I heard him correctly. I am having a little trouble putting ...

Re: Lds church is wrongly attacked for giving too little to charity....
I agree the church shouldn't be attacked for not doing enough charity. It should be attacked for having hundreds of billions of dollars while putting the screws to well-meaning members. Riding the backs of members for every spare cent and then turning it over to charity isn't admirable either. Mayb...

Re: Bokovoy on Mormon Stories
The pod cast is a edited re-run from the 2018 series. I believe John is combining 7 or 8 episodes into 3. David is a good person for sure, brilliant mind. In the 1st interview, in my opinion, he is all over the place. He had just stopped attending church but still has a great love for it. Again in ...

Re: LDS Inc buys Kirtland Temple from Mormon rivals for $192 million
Being on the register as a National Landmark does not necessarily mean it can't be used as a Temple, in fact I am almost certain it could. I just wonder if it was part of the sales agreement between the two parties? I have been in Historic preservation for almost three decades and have worked on se...

Re: LDS Inc buys Kirtland Temple from Mormon rivals for $192 million
I did a Google search and looked at the floor plan for the Temple. I was surprised at how small it is. The floor area of the Temple is about 15,000 sq. feet, in comparison to the SLC Temple of over 250,000 sq. feet. The San Diego Temple is over 70,000 sq. feet. The Redlands Temple, which is a few mi...
