Anything that is slightly alluring for its darker side. Coffee is, well, darker.
Oh for shame, how the mortals put the blame on us gods, for they say evils come from us, but it is they, rather, who by their own recklessness win sorrow beyond what is given... Zeus (1178 BC)

well café, that is the paradox. It drives me mad!

This is jumbled up thinking. The real reason we adhere to the coffee ban is lack of knowledge. We freely admit we do not know the reason. Could be that souls are in the beans, but then who among you would want to spill them?

That's NOT what the Word of Wisdom actually states. Anti-mormon perversion of our scripture is not truth and fact.
It states that "creeping things" like bugs, etc. should be "only" eaten during famine, winter, etc.
Further, other scripture makes clear that meat is to be eaten and not forbidden.
ldsfaqs. Once again you are demonstrably wrong...
12 Yea, flesh also of beasts and of the fowls of the air, I, the Lord, have ordained for the use of man with thanksgiving; nevertheless they are to be used sparingly;
13 And it is pleasing unto me that they should not be used, only in times of winter, or of cold, or famine.
Edit. I see someone else had already posted this evidence in response to ldsfaqs false statement.

What confusion does changing this...
'they are the principal ancestors of the Native Americans'
...to this...
'they are among the ancestors of the Native Amercans'
...eliminate?
I'm after both your opinion and what the Church officially said on this subject when it informed the membership of the change - which it would have done at the time of the change (2006 If I recall correctly)if the purpose was to end confusion, right?
