Allrighty.
The Mormon church drew alot of heat because the children of Cain (Blacks) could not hold the priesthood. Due to this heat, the prophet received a devine revelation saying it was ok for them to hold the priesthood. Just another flip-flop.
As far as polygamy is concerned, are you familiar with the Journal of Discourses section 132?
Your tact leaves alot to be desired. If you plan on being a God one day, you need to work on that.
"As far as polygamy is concerned, are you familiar with the Journal of Discourses section 132? "
Slight correction: It is Doctrine and Covenants 132, not the JODs. Though, there is a lot of good reading in the latter.
Besides identifying yourself as a first class religious idiot.
You have any more revelations for us.
What does this have to do with same sex marriage that is another topic or is it the LDS your bone with?
Would let same sex marriage over you ax with the LDS!
A member of the Church attended various meetings and conferences of the Church, in his own version of shorthand he copied down the sermons. Some of the talks he did not write at the time but up to a few weeks later as he best remembered them. He did this over a period of approximately 25 years. He decided that all this material should be published. So he did publish the material privately for which he recieved money (profits). To do so he had to reconstruct what he meant by his shorthand from the past 25 years. This man was not called by the church or held any position as recorder or historian. What he wrote is very valuable material for historians and people interested in the what early apostles and prophest "probably" said. It does provide a great window into some early sermons of early church leaders it is clearly not accepted as Canon of the Church.
I have personally had anti-Mormons tell me that I believe the "Adam-God Theory" and "Blood Atonement" by using quotes from the Journal of Discourses. They are both false principles. (Though I agree with the idea that a murderer's blood should be spilt. It just doesn't have any effect on his consequence in the afterlife.)

I was there (a member), and I remember the revelation. There was no heat that I remember. It was quite a surprise, because there was no “build up” the prophet just said “It is time”.
Without the heat, well you stand exposed, in your logical argument.
>>As far as polygamy is concerned, are you familiar with the Journal of Discourses section 132?
Which volume? There are 26 and many have sections 132, many of the 132’s deal with polygamy (polygamy is discussed a lot in the JOD), can you be more specific? (links are nice, try this one http://journalofdiscourses.org/ Complete text at your disposal.)

Tact: “Acute sensitivity to what is proper and appropriate in dealing with others, including the ability to speak or act without offending.” ( http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=tact )
I was not aware that Tact was one of gods attributes; he offends sinners all the time by commanding them to repent. (“A tactful God”, there’s a short story in there somewhere)
That said, I am sorry if my posts offend you, I am merely having fun with words, I assure you I am very likable in person, everybody says so, right after I pay them.
