WTF? Boyd Packer’s Art Testifies of Divinity of Creation?

LDS Inc posted this filler story on their main corporate website.

Divinity? Why because of the position that he has in LDS Inc leadership?

Does an atheist artist's art do the same?

Perhaps Desbooks is about to start hawking his silly paintings?

Isn't it obvious that a picture of a horse drawing a plow testifies of God, and in particular, God as a man wholives on a planet near the star kolob with thousands of wives?

I mean, how else could one interpret a horse pulling a plow?

Those who know what salt tastes like, know that a horse pulling a plow testifies that Joseph Smith helped in the creation process and was destined to marry other mens wives and girls under 18.

by the way, you know you're in a cult when believrs worship the results of their leaders' hobbies.

Sometimes a painting is just a painting.

It's nice President Packer gets joy out of his hobby, and he is obviously not without talent, but isn't that enough?

All the Best!

There is no problem with Packer's testimony through his art of the divinity of the creation.

Either that or someone spent a lot of time photoshopping out all the paint drips. I suspect you're right. A poorly staged photo. No need to be honest in a press photo. :wink:
