The angel who helped deliver the message? I like to think that was me getting a glimpse of mortality a few months before I tried it out for real. In which case I thank you for the compliment. I like to think I did a good job.

Two things:

This guy couldn't have thought he would do anything other than provoke the Church when he sent letters suggesting he was sparking rebellion among the lower-level leadership.

Like Nehor, I seriously wondered whether this guy is Scratch.

Will the details appear on Scratch Watch?

In twenty years, when SSA no longer an issue, members will deny the church ever spoke out against SS marriage.

It will all be just the opinion of a few elderly men who were out of touch.

Apologists will claim anti-mormons are just making up stuff to criticize the LDS church.

Message boards will be discussing how there was never any official doctrine that SS couples should be denied the rights of other couples.

Further light and knowledge and all that!

Just watch... :-)

Scratch actually presents himself in a much more polished fashion. I doubt that if he was putting together a video, it would be that scattered. Scratch is also obviously very well-read, and has a flair for the written word, which this guy seems to seriously lack.

However, I did sense some of the same paranoia there, which is why I teased him slightly. ;)

Scratch is smooth as he writes. However, I have no idea how he functions as a speaker.

Indeed, one is not necessarily talented in both areas.

Still, I think the overall evidence that we at Scratch Watch have is against this particular theory, which is, nevertheless, fun.

God? The Prophet? The Apostles who hold the keys to make such a change?

Yes, I think it was a good thing.


You are truly delusional if you think the impetus to change in the Priesthood Ban came from within the the Corporation of the Presidency for the COJCOLDS.
God has the right to create and to destroy, to make like and to kill. He can delegate this authority if he wishes to. I know that can be scary. Deal with it.
