As much as man can know, yes. Does this remove the possibility of mistakes? No. I'm still not entirely sure he was wrong though.


If he was right, than Spencer Kimball was wrong. Either way, I think you have a problem when a prophet of God holds a fundamentally mistaken view of God.


Actually what Spencer W. Kimball said was that the way that people understood what was said was wrong.


Nope. He said Adam/God was wrong and applied it to the way LDS fundies understand it,which is how BY taught it.

I suspect the fundies misunderstood.

I suspect you need to read more about what BY said, and what the fundie believe. They are remarkably similar.
