Re: Other Religious Forgeries
Smith didn't need the actual or original manuscript of John to receive a revelation of its contents. There is no need for the entire shenanigans of the plates, since via revelation God can certainly get his point across whether anything exists in writing or not, yes? So you can too see a better way...

Re: Other Religious Forgeries
Imagine looking at a distant star that “twinkles” in a uniform fashion, upon investigation it is discovered that the twinkling is actually a form of binary code that communicates important mathematical truths humanity that we, at the present moment, are struggling with. Because of the public nature...

Re: Other Religious Forgeries
It may be something of a distraction from the point of your post to bring this up; even if they were actual golden plates rather than a tile brick, the inability to examine them is a massive problem. I just feel like it highlights how Smith's claims seem even sillier the more closely one looks at t...

Re: Is Scott Lloyd claiming the Brethren were behind the 2012 ousting of Peterson etc?
As Kishkumen points out, this is two different events, one the ouster of the old guard in 2012 and the second event I believe was a talk given by Holland a couple of years back to the MI regarding it's course, a talk the OMID's pointed to as evidence that the 2012 changes were not going to last. In ...

Re: If there is a god is he evil?
Mormonism's shallow lake definition of theodicy is equal to Scientology's definition of science.
The Mormon god isn't evil so much as he is feeble.

Re: When anonymous prophecies fail
Something Smith figured out early on is the appeal that being "in-the-know" has to a broad spectrum of people. Smith continually was looking to reveal hidden things to those "worthy" of such knowledge. Evidently the ridiculous nature of this secret information has little bearing on the willingness o...

Re: Fairmormon's T. I. T. S.
Why is converts who join the church inspite of their family's opposition are admired but members who leave the church contrary to their family's wishes are condemned?

Re: Voter Fraud
Frankly, if there's a problem with the election, it's that Trump got as many votes as reported. That's the only thing I find dubious... not that I'd take it to court. This. My response to those who tell me there was voter fraud is that we have exactly the same amount of actual evidence of voter fra...

Re: My God, it's full of stars
When they dig it up, they will discover the second chapter of the Kinderhook plates right below it along with a note saying;
Zelph was here."

Re: Bible Prophecy Donald Trump the Anti-Christ
The Anti-Christ wants to know how his reputation got so bad that he is now compared to Trump?
