When it comes to things like evolution/flood and other scientifically related areas the church generally has no stated doctrinal position although members and leaders have expressed their opinions.

You have been out for a while haven’t you? I find myself questioning whether you were ever fully ‘in’. 😉

Utter nonsense, you won’t be able to provide one example from a official church magazine, manual or conference talk that allows for the flood being anything other than a global event that happened. It’s taught that way in every age group in Sunday school, it’s talked about that way by every General Authority when talking over the pulpit. Consistently. That’s doctrine. Of course, you can rebut me by providing that one example…
I’m not interested in going the rounds with you IHAQ. I realize that as a fundamentalist you have a very narrow and restricted view of things. As such, this has led you out of the church. I would refer you to:

This will hopefully, but not necessarily, broaden your horizons.

Objectively, however, killing innocents is JUST WRONG. By any objective standard.
At the point Laban was murdered he was innocent - he had not been convicted of any crime. Why didn’t Nephi pursue Laban through the proper judicial channels of the day, rather than taking things into his own hands? Are you suggesting that it’s okay for us to take matters into our own hands if we feel moved upon spiritually to do so?
Time? The family of Lehi was in somewhat of a hurry to skedaddle out of Jerusalem. There may have been other reasons, but this one comes to the forefront of my mind. Also, Laban had multiple opportunities to deliver up the plates. It wasn’t going to happen.

Imagine pointing out lying, and the liar responds with accusations of fault finding.

-_-
I don’t think lying is at the heart of anything here.

Fault finding? Yes.

Critic: The global flood.

MG: The flood isn’t doctrine. You obviously know nothing about the church.

Critic: Here’s the proof the flood is doctrine.

MG: Everyone knows it's doctrine. It’s just not doctrine that matters. You always find fault.
Not that simple. Along with IHAQ, you have a fundamentalist/black and white view…when it suits you, and your agenda.

Coming up next:

Critic: Here's how the doctrine of a global flood matters.

MG: You're a humanist and an atheist and clearly hate the Creator God.
Putting words in other’s mouths. Classic.

Here is what MG believes

"Esoteric Doctrine — known perhaps by prophets or may have once been authoritatively taught in the church, but no longer are, and are not essential for salvation"
