Which prophet was murdered in cold blood? Joseph Smith was out gunned in a close range gun battle. Poor planning on his part. He set the stage for that.
You really are an idiot aren't you. Without even trying hard.
Sure TD, an apologetic book written by employees of LDS Inc are going discuss the temple ceremony let alone discuss the possibilities of past-since-removed oaths aiding in planing the slaughter of children, women and completely unarmed men.
Once again Boaz demonstrates stupidity in calling labeling a book that he has never read. Duhhhhhhh!

Just an outsider's view.
Just curious, do you lament the death of David Koresh?
Did the book address the subsequent cover-up of the massacre and the distribution of the party's material goods?
And what was the authors' explanation for BY's "vengeance is mine, saith the lord, and I have taken a little" along with the dismantling of the stone monument?
Thanks
I can give you a speculative thought for BYs comments. He was a human, subject to all the ranges of emotions humans are subject too. I think he was rightfully pissed off about the mistreatment the LDS Church had continually received. So he said something and did something that was spiteful because people are spiteful creatures. That is about it.

You really are a dim bulb. Think about it Jas.
This book was written by the church for the church members. Duh yourself doofus.

Sorry, nope.
He was a PROPHET OF GOD ferchrissakes! Yanno the kind who could see past things like that... He knew full well that none of these people were guilty of any mistreatment of the Mormons. And history(even this very book) have PROVEN THAT.

The book is the first of two volumes, and narrates events leading up to the massacre and of the massacre itself.
As those who've looked at it notice immediately and as the authors expressly say.

And published by Oxford University Press, a division of Deseret Book that distributes only along the Wasatch Front.
No need to look at it to know all that needs to be known about it.
Why is the incessant mentioning of "Oxford University Press" necessary? It's the largest university publisher in the world. The likelihood of academic material being printed by OUP is high. It's as if one wants to build up some cache by mentioning a movie is being produced in Hollywood. Well, whoopdee-fuckin'-doo.
That being said, the MMM is waaaaay overplayed by critics. Way overplayed. It's silly.
