Sorry, KimberlyAnn but your post may go unchallenged on some boards that are for posties but now here.

Is this the true Adamic language? I can't get a fix on this even with a peepstone.

I'm pretty good at translating pure Adamic language into English. Let's give this a shot.

Sorry KA. Your post may go unchallenged on some post-mormon boards, but not here. Blah, blah, blah.

Dammit Schmo, you beat me to it. ;) Ignore my previous post.

Ya, but yours had more style. I liked the translation comment.

He lied to his own wife, Emma, and kept many of his plural marriages secret from her.

And who did "poor" Emma deceive?

Wiki quoting information from Mormon Enigma:

Newell and Avery, in their biography, Mormon Enigma, cite evidence that Emma witnessed several marriages of Joseph Smith, Jr. to plural wives. However, like all those who participated in early Plural Marriages, Emma publicly denied knowledge of her husband's involvement in the practice of polygamy.

Emma was innocent, really? Do you believe that she was unaware of this?

Why would anyone trust his claims that he was a prophet of God?

Emma apparently did. Did she ever deny the Book of Mormon? Did she ever deny that her husband was a true prophet? Did she encourage others to leave the Church because her husband "could not be trusted"?

If so, where?

I'm sorry you're dealing with a husband who feels you're tearing down his church.

Maybe sailgirl would like to answer whether she still thinks it's also her church.

If I were you, I'd stop doing callings and stop going to church and let the chips fall where they may.

But you are not her. Presumably, she can think for herself.

Tom became a staunch, fundamentalist Christian and he thinks I'm probably going to hell, but after enough threats from me, he keeps that dumb opinion to himself now.

While you share yours with the whole world-wide net.

I only hope you can do so without lowering to the bitterness and anger that so frequently affects exmos.

Way to generalize your inaccurate opinion.

I used to work at the Sears Repair call center (lots of angry customers calling in). If I were a complete idiot, I could say "All, or most, Sears customers are angry, bitter, and they hate Sears.

Or someone could look at yours or pahoran's post and generalize something about how angry and bitter Mormons are.

Take your fights to someone who doesn't mind them (i have a few posters in mind). In other words, pick on someone your own size.

Your posts never made sense to me. And this one doesn't, either.

The saddest people I know, the most deeply unhappy I know, are those "in the world". And how do they overcome this - through alcohol, denial, and believing that there is a better way. They are happy, but only temporarily, and they can't see beyond their noses.

Ray, what do you mean by this? Who are those that are "in the world"?

What I think he meant to say is 'of the world'.

As Mormons, you're counseled by the leaders to be 'in the world, but not of the world'. Meaning, don't partake of the evils of the world - alcohol, porn, pre-marital sex, masturbation, swearing, lightmindedness, loud laughter, etc.
