'Speaking as man' scriptures

[_sock puppet]

So, TBMs and other LDS defenders, please identify those portions of the LDS canon that were merely prophets and others speaking as men, and not conveying messages from the all powerful, omniscient god?

Give them time. When things work out that show how obviously wrong and wrong headed some information is, they will then point to that scripture and say it was spoken merely as a man. The things that continue to make sense (to their own minds until they are cornered into realizing it's all pretty much bunk) they will continue spouting it was from the Lord. Time shows that God anciently spoke a whole lot less than once was supposed.

When the official doctrine says they are. For example, SWK said, in official doctrine, something to the effect of "the rib story is surely figurative". It's not a speaking as a man example, but close enough you get the idea.

I once saw a Bible in which all the words of Jesus were in red font. Might we consider a Bible that colors fonts blue where the words are only that of a man?

All the words are people either speaking as a man or reporting what they feel best reflects what they directly or indirectly feel the Lord has said to them. If you wish to know what the Lord truly has to say, seek him and speak with him and learn the truth for yourself.

Darn good idea, Zeez.

If it were to be a law, we could call Truth in Scripture Act.

Pure hokum. If God is a God of truth and cannot lie and wants all people to understand HIS will, law, and feelings, then perhaps he ought to try to start answering all peoples around the world with the same information about Him, the kind of being he is, what he actually does want, etc. Religion is a steamy morass of contradictory conceptions because it is man-made, and then God is invoked to justify and verify a man-made myopic thinking.
