This has to be the most stunning display of willful stupidity I've ever seen. Charity, literally, is choosing to be stupid. Literally. You cannot read these words and come away not knowing, on any level, that the Book of Mormon was plagiarized by 1) a man that was simply 2) writing a book. It's impo...

Well, we're specifically talking about plagiarism, which charity can't seem to accept. The Book of Mormon uses the KJV Bible, but does not give credit. Yeah, I do seem to get hung up on what words mean. So when someone uses the word "plagiarism" I think they ought to use it correctly. Wha...

Plagiarism is using others’ ideas and words without clearly acknowledging the source of that information. To avoid plagiarism, you must give credit whenever you use: - another person’s idea , opinion, or theory; - any facts, statistics, graphs, drawings—any pieces of information—that are not common...

The case isn't "convincing". It's clear cut . I think what most Mormons experience on this issue is something of a disconnect. They don't really understand what plagiarism, in a real, understandable, able-to-picture-it-in-their-mind, is. For Mormons: What is Plagiarism ? Plagiarism is usin...

And is this right next to the COB? Anyone want to venture a guess at how much an entire-floor-penthouse in downtown SLC might co...

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use...

Well, since the Jaredites very plainly used Los Angeles class submarines to navigate the ocean it would be no surprise to me that they possessed advanced smelting technologies. I'm continually amazed by these supposedly "primitive" civilizations that far outpaced our own with their scienti...

They should re-name it the Tom Hanks and Shelly Long Memorial Building.

Second, I believe that Mormons are more naturally offendable (my word). It's part of the culture. From Joseph being painted as the martyr, to the pioneers being forced to suffer -- when in my opinion much of the suffering on both parts was brought on by themselves and the leaders unnecessarily. So,...

This is so off base. It is an apologetic board! APOLOGETIC. Defense of a point of view. That's what apologetic means. You obviously have not played in that sandbox much. Anyone can say anything they want as long as they are civil. It is just that anti-Mormons seem to lose their manners when they le...
