I guess I haven't made the ignore list again quite yet.

I wonder where Brigham Young got the idea he could have sex with his plural wives?
Anyway, one of the more bizarre instances of Joseph Smith's secret marriage was to Zina Jacobs. Mr. Smith married her when she was 7 months pregnant? Whaaaat?

Hang on to it for a while. It looks like you will soon earn it.
This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.

Same place as Joseph, the spiritual promptings from between his legs.
That said, with the Book of Mormon, we are not dealing with a civilization with no written record. What we are dealing with is a written record with no civilization. (Runtu, Feb 2015)

It seems pretty obvious why Mormon god would not want Tobin to possibly replicate any of his genes. What doesn't make sense is why Mormon god would insist that JSJr have extra sex, and then not preserve much righteous seed in the process.
So you're chasing around a fly and in your world, I'm the idiot?

I like to think my Blazing Saddles reference yesterday somehow led to this, but it's probably just a coincidence. :-)

Can't get her pregnant when she already is?
