I trust you've seen my thread Question for Don Bradley in which I question him about Mormon doctrine pertaining to the dark skin curse in the Book of Mormon. But Bradley, like you, is a coward and refused to reply. YOU are more than welcome to go into the thread and take over for Bradley and offer your own sorry excuses. Ha ha ha. Will you? I'll chew you up and spit you out! I dare you! I double dare you!!

Abraham 1:26,27 wrote:Pharaoh, being a righteous man, established his kingdom and judged his people wisely and justly all his days, seeking earnestly to imitate that order established by the fathers in the first generations, in the days of the first patriarchal reign, even in the reign of Adam, and also of Noah, his father, who blessed him with the blessings of the earth, and with the blessings of wisdom, but cursed him as pertaining to the Priesthood.
