Polygamy

[_Lemmie]

OMG grindael, that is some fascinating history. Thank you and keep posting.

Great work grindael.

My friend Mak is a great historian. I'm just a guest on this thread, and glad he's posting about all this and that I can add a bit here and there to keep you all apprised of the real history of Joseph Smith. I keep learning new things all the time, and it all goes into my head and will be spouted out at a later time as I digest and contemplate it. This place is the best, and Shades is a genius. Long after I am gone, this place will be the destination of the curious, the needy, the hurt, the believer and critic of all things Mormon. It will be the icon while all others will fade and be forgotten. Mark my words. Our contributions will live on, and future generations will see the Mopologists for what they are, sad defenders of a dying dinosaur. (The Mormon Hierarchy).

I almost let the trolls here get the best of me, and I assure you all, that will never happen again. I will keep posting, I guaran-fucking-tee it.

don’t worry about the trolls, they only makes themselves look bad! (For example, what on earth does the weasel intend by the phrase “ilk/kind”? )

And yes, I agree, this place is really quite the repository for some amazing thoughts- thank you for what you add to that!

...what on earth does mentalgymnast intend by the phrase “ilk/kind”?...

Ilk: a certain breed, class, or type.

Kind: a group united by common traits or interests.

Yes, indeed. I posted several pictures of your ilk above.

These people when they committed their heinous activities were not acting in accordance with the teachings/practices of the CofJCofLDS.

I don't "own them" or their choices in any way, shape, or form. It's on them, not the church.

It's on Joseph Smith and anyone who defends his polygamy. That's you. You're here defending it. It doesn't matter how many times you lie. Your words are your witness. Lying for the Lord is a compulsion for you because you have so many other brethren's lies and misdeeds to defend.

I notice you have no refutation of the pages of events posted. All you have is your emotional, irrational blather to try and change the subject and demonize those who bring you facts and history. Of course.

Your D & C still has Section 132 in it. The church has never really disavowed it and that's why Nelson and Oaks are already practicing it.

Go on, lie some more. Do it in a really passive aggressive, whiny poor me way and see if it works.

People like Mentalgymnist are often found in church on Sunday.

Mentalgymnist and his ilk are to be found in church on Sunday.

I do not think it is just me, I hear a change in communication in the above phrases.

The sad fact is that Russell M. Nelson today could have dozens of secret teen brides with whom he enjoys sexual relationships, he could lie about it from the pulpit, he could add scriptures to the D&C that state that Mormons don't believe in polygamy, and all of this would be completely within prophetic precedent set by Joseph Smith.

Yes, I agree. Mentalgymnast’s slash use is frequently of the passive aggressive variety. That way, if he’s caught he thinks he can argue the slash means they are the same, when it’s clear from his usage he intends something to be a slur. He just can’t commit!

His silly overuse and misuse of the slash, however, in double, triple, and even occasional quadruple groupings just renders him funny-slash-buffoonlike-slash-trollish.

Mark my words. You highly over rate/over state the effects of your doings as anti-Mormons and detractors of the Prophet Joseph Smith. The Gospel of Jesus Christ and the CofJCofLDS will continue to fill the earth before the Second Coming of the Savior. The lowly in heart and meek of the earth will come into God's Kingdom. You and your ilk/kind will melt away as the morning dew and there will be nothing of any value left to see except for some broken testimonies and hearts of those that have left the church.

As I've said before, you and your kind are a necessary part of the 'program' in that it is needful that there is opposition in all things so that folks are left to either choose to believe in Jesus Christ/Heavenly Father and adherence to gospel ordinances/commandments or go their own way. Faith and belief in God is an act of agency which entails real choices.

I don't count myself as a Mopologist as much as I count myself as a disciple of Christ and seeker of truth. And that seems to bother you to no end. For the times that I may have offended/hurt you, I apologize. I could have been better.

And by the way, if the Apostles and Prophets are indeed called by Jesus Christ, they're not going anywhere as did the dinosaurs. In fact, they will hand over the kingdom over to Christ when He returns.

Carry on, as you must.

You accuse people of all kinds of evil and give your "regards"? Hypocrite much? That's not very Christlike. In fact, your constant pontificating and empty platitudes to those on this board are also phony and also not what Jesus advocated people to be like. In all regards, you fail the test as any kind of Christian. You have a cult mentality (unlike other Mormons who don't) and would have been right there with Jo's Danites burning down the homes of the Missourians because he asked you to. You give other sincere Mormons a bad name. You would do or say anything, to protect YOUR crazy, made up cultish beliefs. You are a complete moron and can't stand the fact that you don't understand Mormon History, can't comprehend who Smith really was, and want to believe in leaders that are as hypocritical and empty of any power as you are. In fact, your "priesthood" is a joke, because it is based on lies and made up BS.

Your leaders (past and present) have never been able to show anyone they have any power to speak for God, act for God, or have God's power as those who were written about in the Bible. You have men like Parley Pratt (an "Apostle" like Peter so they said) cursing people and winding up dead themselves, and his curse was as empty as the vacuous rhetoric you sling here. Prophesied by that same "priesthood" that if the "gentiles" were not all destroyed in 5 to 50 years from 1838, then the Book of Mormon was false. Well, it is. It's a joke, like what you post here. A nineteenth century con that you swallowed, hook, line and sinker. And I can and have posted proof after proof of the fraud you peddle, and you just can't stand it, so you have to make up lies about me and troll me and claim I'm going to melt away. And my dog Toto, too!

On this forum, I'm gonna be on you like fleas on a dog if you spout your apologetic drivel here. That's what it is and that's all you do.

by the way, Jesus said his kingdom was not of this world, stupid. He hated the moneychangers and that is all you and your leaders care about. They misuse the money, pay themselves handsomely and never work at anything and have since the beginning when Smith set it up that way. Monson was a leech that milked the church his whole life. An insincere phony that Jesus would have laughed at and told to give up all his riches and really act like a disciple of God. But they don't do that, they wall themselves off in their condos and houses and pontificate... just like you do. Nothing positive will ever come from you or anything you do here. And everyone knows it. What bothers me to no end is your lies and hypocrisy and false conclusions. And I have the evidence and the discipline to know what and where it is and how to share it, you do not. You are a lazy dog who can only cut and paste and link to other people's work because you can't string two coherent sentences together without contradicting yourself or something you posted five minutes before. Lies built on lies and a Mopologist to the core.

My work will be here forever and be lauded (as it is now) as good, solid research while your links were disappear and the crap you copy and paste will be laughed at by future generations. I love how you can judge others when Christ told you not to. You claim to follow Jesus but always do what he says not to. Worship men, love money, lie, judge, live in hypocrisy the list goes on and on and I'm pretty sure that Jesus did not like that crap and so it is you who will be out of luck if you ever meet up with him. He'll be like who the “F” is this anonymous troll? “F” off, dirtbag, I never knew you. Yup, those will be Jesus' exact words. He told me to tell you that. Lowly in heart? You? The jokes just keep coming.... Oh, and Jesus said your priesthood is a joke too. He laughed and laughed about it because he said you know it is, but won't admit it to yourself. He's an amazing guy.

Bring it, dirtbag.

I don't think, as long as you and your wife both are judged worthy, that there will be any worries about having to take additional companions/wives. You and your wife will be able to live exclusively with one another. Is there a church doctrine/teaching which would negate this?

D&C 132, . And the fact that Joseph taught over and over and over and over and over and over again the PARABLE OF THE TALENT in relation to "eternal marriage".

But you wouldn't know that because you are so ignorant about Mormon History and read exclusively only Mopologist trash. You lie about reading anything else. Over and over and over and over and over again.
