Bottom of the page states:

does not link anywhere
bottom of page state:

Does not link anywhere.
http://Mormon.org/rights-usage/Does not contain any disclaimer that contents are not Official Church Doctrine.

Or this site?
http://josephsmithpapers.org/Which also has "© 2011 Intellectual Reserve, Inc. All rights reserved."
Pretty soon everything Joseph Smith ever wrote or dictated will be doctrine. So do we go with the original versions of the revelations of the current versions? Both seem to be "doctrine".

Doesn't have "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints" logo or any other statement with the church's name on the front page.
But then it's not going to have the same crazy chit on it as the unedited Mormon.org has.

What say ye?
Yep. Published by the Church. Of course in context with an individual's profile, the doctrine would be, this is how that specific person feels and believes.
Which also has "© 2011 Intellectual Reserve, Inc. All rights reserved."
Meaningless.

Do I also get to contextualize the online Institute Manual with the profiles of its author(s), that is how those specific individuals feel and believe?
If not, why not?
