Re: Guess the age group...

Well it was actually from the Primary 5 manual which covers kids in the year group above your guess. However, further research shows that it may be me that's behind the times in my viewpoint... (my question to myself was, "why are we teaching this in Church to such young children?") Almost...

Re: Great question - "Why are facts Anti-Mormon?"

I note you use the word 'some' and the word 'mentioned'. What about some quotes from the teaching and student manuals about Joseph being on trial for "glass looking" or perhaps the unsuccessful dash for cash to Canada? 1. I learned it first reading Church history. But yes, it's been menti...

Re: President Uchtdorf at CES

For you consideration President Uchtdorf said this at CES today. Starting at 33:00 I transcribed this, so I apologize if there are any errors and I will correct them as needed. For those who already embrace the truth his primary strategy is to spread the seeds of doubt. For example he[The Devil] ha...

Re: Misconceptions about the Mormon Church (U.K.)

Joseph most certainly "willingly" died for his beliefs rather than renouncing them. How does firing a gun at the people who were going to kill you for your beliefs constitute "willingly"? It seems (rightly so) that Joseph was doing all he could to prevent his own death. Was Jose...

Re: Myth: Gun Control reduces crime

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_co ... death_rate

According to the data on the above link:
The USA has 10.2 firearm related deaths per 100,000 of population per annum.
The UK has 0.04 firearm related deaths per 100,000 of population.

Do you really feel safer because you have the right to carry firearms? Really?

Re: Great question - "Why are facts Anti-Mormon?"

I don't know what Church you've gone to but I've attended some 30 Wards in my life, and various events from Joseph's life including some of his charges and incarcerations have often been mentioned. After all, they are faith promoting, because they show your kinds evil and our kinds innocence. I not...
