Mormon Messages and multiple accounts of the first vision

Post by _Stormy Waters »

In the latest Mormon Messages video it mentions that there are multiple and somewhat differing accounts of the first vision. Although it does not go into much detail, perhaps it is a step towards 'inoculating' the church membership.

What about the account where Joseph met with Elvis, James Dean and Marilyn Monroe in that diner on that boulevard? The author gives no mention of it whatsoever.

ALL FOUR accounts?? :lol:

FOUR?

When is an omission considered a LIE?

That account is exclusively for buyers of the book.

Can we read the entire 4 accounts of fatty grissle on LDS.org? Are you kidding?!

If they were posted, Mormons would be puking their guts out - no amount of spoiled milk can make them palettable.


by the way, hi port.

just a mild relapse. I'm about to toss Mormonism back into the crapper in a couple minutes. The kids are all out now and my bride chooses to be with them.

Game isn't won, but currently: family = 1, Mormonism = zero, so it's good.

Hope you're doing well.
