You all know the look someone has when all the blood drains from their face. Blood, being red, contributes to the color of the face. When it drains the look is quite disturbing--people can, to me, even look sort of greenish. Of course, a more detailed story would entail bringing up norepinephrine etc.

Also, the blood contributes to the volume or fullness of the face and that makes a difference too.

Now we are told that resurrected beings do not have blood in their veins but rather a spiritual fluid which I had always assumed was transparent (presumably not even properly physical).

I wonder if Jesus looked sick to Joseph went he first saw him in the grove. Maybe Joseph initially thought God was viscerally upset with having been disturbed or that interdimensional travel made Him queasy.

You assume poorly. Why?
Jesus took up his life again and was NOT resurrected to a celestial glory. That there are still scars for Jesus to witness to worlds without number that he is the God of the gospel power means he still has a translated sort of body more than a glorified one regardless what is in his blood vessels.

You guys are making it very difficult for yourselves. When you die and get to the other dimension where the light and love of God are constantly manifested whacha gonna do? Better to repent now and subject your free will and agency for an acceptable sacrifice and obtain salvation and grace with Christ in God. He will forget all your blasphemies and they will not count or be recorded on the roll of your life's history. Those who own the greatest arrogance here will reap the most shame there as you will not be able to hide it from anyone who looks upon you. Where will you go?

What am I going to do? I'll just ask why God made His true religion look exactly like a second-rate fraud and why His prophets were either self-promoting charlatans or crazy.

So the spiritual fluid I am told about is actually thick red stuff with all the outward properties of blood?
OK, why not call it blood then?

Sorry, but that wont wash. Mankind is under the obligation of obeying the Son of God alone. We are a knowledgeable generation who have read the words of Jesus Christ. What Joseph's hangers on made of the restoration is an abomination that even the Lord predicted in the Book of Mormon. All that the Lord spoke to Joseph Smith is counted against you as well regardless of the hypocrisy of the world.

Besides, you should have gotten the gospel RIGHT before you "learned" and became ashamed of the prophet Joseph Smith.

Who says I'm ashamed of Joseph Smith? I know who and what he was. Why would I be ashamed of someone else?

You are assuming that the appearance of God, who made the glorious likenesses of all things and counts even the spacing of the feathers of ducks, would leave himself putrid and abhorrent. The Lord is all about aesthetics. Why would you assume less? Open your eyes man.

If he did not perform all the wonders of life then he is not God, which is also as your prefer. Poorly again.

Okay, well, you know what I mean all the same.

I know what you mean. Whether or not I'm ashamed of a fake prophet is of no consequence.

I'm in a mood so here is another "deep thought" (lol).

Artists who want to graphically represent the human body will often study anatomy and, in particular, the shape of the skeleton and individual bones.

This makes common sense. After all, this does look like nothing more or nothing less than flesh covered bone. (There is a reason things look like they do)

But I tricked you. There is no flesh or bone in that picture! It is the "hand" of a spirit person who has not yet received a body of flesh and bone.
There is a complete and jaring mismatch between form and function. Hope it doesn't bother you.
