problems with God
Posted: Sun Nov 16, 2014 2:04 am
having presented these issues to numerous missionaries without any response, perhaps someone here can provide a response?
1. Joseph Smith was married to Fanny Alger at the time revelation was canonized stating:
“Inasmuch as this church of Christ has been reproached with...polygamy; we declare that we believe, that one man should have one wife...” This “Article on Marriage” was canonized and published in the Doctrine & Covenants.
Canonizing scripture stating monogamy, while commanding Joseph Smith to practice polygamy means God is a liar.
2. for God to command humans against lying, while himself lying, makes God a hypocrite.

Todd Mitchell Edwards, 49, pleaded guilty Wednesday to two counts related to the assault of the teens, ages 16 and 18, Edwards held the rank of bishop in the Menifee ward of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which is an unordained and volunteer position. Church officials have said Edwards was removed from that post once they learned of the allegations against him.
by creating a calling for Todd Edwards to become bishop… so that he may use his authority in the church to molest children is absolutely insane. The practice of having a bishop interview children alone… is going to create more cases of child molestation and church members should not be complicit in the process. God is a criminal by association with a child molester.

the remaining personal property of the Baker–Fancher party was taken to the tithing house at Cedar City and auctioned off to local Mormons.
God received stolen goods taken off massacre victims at MMM… making God a thief.
5. regarding the aftermath of Mountain Meadows Massacre; Brigham Young stated "Vengeance is mine and I have taken a little". putting false words in God’s mouth, in violation of Deuteronomy 13 means the church is anti-biblical.
6. regarding the Priesthood ban, the church has admitted prophets of old were stuffing words in God’s mouth, in violation of Deuteronomy which says the punishment is death. again the church is anti-biblical by not following Deuteronomy.
7. spirit of discernment was broken in failing to prevent church leaders from getting tricked by Mark Hoffman.
8. God flip-flopped on his own plan of exaltation (polygamy was a requirement for exaltation) when the US government commanded God to bow down before man, and he did.
9. science says the universe began with the big bang. There is no place God could have been standing prior to the big bang, in order that he may kick off the big bang. A corporeal god simply cannot exist by definition of the chicken-and-egg problem.
While it is ok for church members to model themselves after a lying hypocrite criminal thief…
How can they expect non-members to believe doing so is required to attain the presence of Heavenly Father?
