Request for jskains

Post by _Polygamy-Porter »

Now that you are all settled into your warm loving Mormon neighborhood in Sandy Utah, perhaps you could venture over to the Tanner's bookstore to give us your impression of hefting the replica of the gold plates?

That's a good thing. I know Sandra Tanner doesn't want dead people in there.

Why not? Other Mormons have survived the experience. Afraid?

You might find it worthwhile to visit and look around. The real shame of LDS leadership is that they do not put out truth in too many instances. Many have found they have to go to the Tanners bookstore to get accurate information. Not saying some isn't way out there and very anti-Mormon, but why doesn't LDS Leadership provide this early Church material rather than forcing members outside to find it?

A few friends have been referred to their bookstore by local Bishops and Stake Presidents. Seems some of them know reality when they see it. If you can't get the truth from your leaders you go where it is available.

As for going where evil folks do business, remember that Mark Hoffman was in the offices of The First Presidency doing business with them. Maybe you shouldn't go there either?
