It's nice to see things like this. It looks like there are other members that are embracing the truth and discarding some very bad doctrines that have been preached in the past.

Such as men will have their own planets. I'm not sad to see that false doctrine die.

When was it ever doctrine and how is not doctrine now seeing as how the official doctrine is that we are to become capital G Gods?

bcspace, why is it not doctrinal?

Joseph the prophet spoke it and it was recorded.

Other prophets and apostles after him regarded it as doctrine as well.

I haven't said in this thread it was or wasn't doctrinal. I'm simply waiting on you guys to use the tools that have been given to determine what is and is not doctrine. So far, that hasn't happened. Unsupported claims have been made though and you need to break that habit if you want any respect.

Now I'm off to bed and perhaps sometime tomorrow, I might be able to check in and see the results of your homework should you decide to accept the challenge.

The problem is that church leadership won't say what is doctrine and what is not. They could make it easier on people by actually acting like prophets seers and revelators.

On one hand we have something the prophet said that is not doctrinal(deification).

On the other, we have something the prophet said that is very doctrinal, but it has not been canonized, the specific identification of coffee and tea as the forbidden hot drinks.
