For Charity: about your Oija board before your conversion

[_the road to hana]

Then how can you be sure that seer stones aren't the same?

The recorded use of seerstones by prophets are for revealing God's word. When the reader has a confirmation of that word as God's word, it is clearly not from Satan.

You think Satan is incapable of deception?

Other than Joseph Smith's word for the above, whose recorded word do you have?

Of course, Satan is capable of deceiving people. I try to live a lifestyle that makes that much less likely.

The use of seerstones, of which the Urim and Thummim are a type, is Biblical.

But you got sucked in by Ouija boards, which you believe to be evil?

Lucky for Joseph. Does that mean you think Satan is incapable of using them for his own ends to deceive?

Good grief.

I was a stupid teenager. What can I say?

Yes. Seerstones and the Urim and Thummim work on principles of faith. Satan can't duplicate that.

YOu can't tell what I say with a straight face, BECAUSE SHADES WON'T LET US HAVE SMILIES.

Bujt I would like to be let in on the joke. I really don't know what you are referring to with the "straight face" comment. Please clarify.

19 1/2. That is a lot different than a 14-year-old.

Why not?

Satan does not have the power to do so. He has limitations. The biggest limitation is that he can only have power that we give him.

You were incapable of being deceived at that age?

Do you think Satan was incapable of deceiving Joseph Smith? You? Anyone else?
