You can sometimes get LDS to agree that some of the laws of Moses were simply products of their time....but they still believe they are all from God. *headscratch*

I was going to comment on the irony of those punishments stemming from the Old Testament law that Jesus himself had actually given the people, but kept my mouth shut.
But after the class I mentioned my potential comment to the teacher, and he laughed and said he wished I had pointed that out. So maybe in 2015.

Jehovah's a lot better once he started imbibing wine.
Old Testament=no mention of Jehovah drinking wine=ornrey god
New Testament=Jehovah drinks wine=benevolent god
Restoration=Jehovah forbids drinking=Mormon god
No wonder the Mormon jehovah resembles the Old Testament jehovah more than the New Testament jehovah.
lol!
Did you think that up while imbibing yourself?

One of my favs, and I wonder that it's never shown up in some form on one of the Mormon discussion boards -
No, God's Penis is not a biological organ. I never said God's Penis was the same as man's penis. Obviously it wouldn't be. That is why I pointed out God has a Holy, Righteous Penis. That is to say, it's not the same as man's corrupted, fleshy one.
As I said when this subject first came up, once again: Penises are not just for sex & peeing. It is only because man is evil that he thinks of penises exclusively in those terms.
Man is made in the image of God the Father. That is the primary reason why man has a penis.
You cannot insert your evil prejudicial ideas of man's penis onto God - which is exactly what you are doing. God's Penis is not equal to man's penis. It's really not hard to understand.

Penis aren't just for sex and peeing. They are also for exercising the priesthood, like a wizard's magic want.
I want a magic want!
Oh wait. No, I don't. I want a magic wand, but only if I can forego the wizard.
