People of integrity and honesty not only practice what they preach, they are what they preach. David A Bednar


Good men sometimes make mistakes. A man of integrity will honestly face and correct his mistakes, and that is an example we can respect. D. Todd Christofferson


We believe in being honest, true, chaste....Joseph Smith Jnr.

Explain that Jesus wants us to tell the truth always, even when it is hard to do so. Primary 2: Choose The Right.


People use many excuses for being dishonest. People lie to protect themselves and to have others think well of them...These excuses and many more are given as reasons for dishonesty. To the Lord, there are no acceptable reasons. When we excuse ourselves, we cheat ourselves and the Spirit of God ceases to be with us. We become more and more unrighteous.Gospel Principles: Chapter 31
“We look to not only the spiritual but also the temporal, and we believe that a person who is impoverished temporally cannot blossom spiritually.”
Keith McMullin - Counsellor in Presiding Bishopric

"One, two, three...let's go shopping!"

No. It's just fine right here in the terrestrial kingdom. If PP says you're ignorant then you definately are.

Take heed and learn.

It's a personal attack. Perhaps, Dr. Shades will disagree with you.

PM me for the number for the whambulance.
Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions. Ideas must be distinct before reason can act upon them; and no man ever had a distinct idea of the trinity. It is the mere Abracadabra of the mountebanks calling themselves the priests of Jesus."

It's not an attack to bring up what Joseph was involved in. In fact it is an important issue for members. It shows that yes Joseph was indeed glass looking for hire with his seer stone. It's one of many things we look at when considering if Joseph was possibly a conman making up a religion. We look at he actions, behaviors, and the things he produced like the Book of Mormon, Book of Abraham, etc. There is nothing anti to look at these things or provide this information for others. Without fair and farms I may never have finally realized the church was not true. :cool:

I am aware of the ignorant statement, but I quoted your post about attacking Joseph. by the way Saying one is ignorant cannot be viewed as an attack even if he meant it that way. Now something like jerk, ass etc would be.
