Re: Boyd K. Packard’s little factory speech
The OP seems to be more about the fact that the missionary got a pass on decking his missionary companion, which could have been potentially life threatening. We know more today than we did back then about head injuries, and now have CT scans that may not have been around back then. I don’t know of...

I think the late Bill Hamlin went through all 5.

Yet another poll on the decline of U.S. religiosity
NPR reports on a new Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) poll, reported by PRRI in "Religion and Congregations in a Time of Social Upheaval." "Just 16% of Americans surveyed said religion is the most important thing in their lives, according to the PRRI study, down from 20% a decade ago." Here...

Re: This Sunday: IRS whistleblower to break his silence on LDS Church finances, will speak on ‘60 Minutes’
I found the only new, damaging thing for the LDS church was in how badly the church representative came across. Smug, condescending, but also a deer-in-the-headlights (the question about what's the difference between secret and confidential). Total fail for the church.

Above the law, above the truth
Joseph Smith as late as May 26, 1844 denied having more than one "wife" despite the number being north of 30. He and his bro Hyrum abused their governmental authority over the City of Nauvoo to violate free presss, free speech rights of the proprietors of the Nauvoo Expositor for having the audacity...

Re: What Is Wrong With William Schryver? Can Someone Please Help Him?
The ironic thing is that the Book of Abraham has some of the best, most original LDS doctrine of any of the standard works, yet is the one that is the most obviously just made up whole cloth from Joseph Smith's imagination. Sansfoy, I am wondering what you are thinking of here. Perhaps my memory is...

Re: What Is Wrong With William Schryver? Can Someone Please Help Him?
Will crashed and burned years ago on the rocks of facts and logic in his vain attempt to save the Book of Abraham with his ill-conceived cipher theory (and hi-res photos of the papyri and KEP). He doesn't seem to have healed, just redirected his 'efforts.' Perhaps the Elon Musk version of Twitter wi...
