[The evidence of his philandering is overwhelming.]
LeGrande is making an extremely tenuous legalistic argument that Joe Smith was a serial adulterer, just not a polygamist. Given that Smith gave sermons and was the rootsource of the polygamy doctrine as well as a philanderer, this would be similar in form to arguing Hitler was not a mas murderer because no one ever saw him gassing a Jew.
But such is the type of obfuscation we can expect. Perhaps Legrande needs his own Ecumenical thread so he doesn’t have to be called on inconvenient points of logic.
If you would have made the analogy of Marx to communism I would have agreed. The Hitler anology primarily fails because it was the use of the State and Law that caused the Jews to be gassed.
This is a very important point, because running dog is advocating using the very same principles that the Nazi's used against the Jews, and hundreds of thousands of other undesirables, against the FLDS. The technique is identical, vilify and then deny their fundamental rights. After that is accomplished, the State has total control and can do anything it pleases.
We are not immune and it amazes me that you 'Christians' don't recognize the danger that you are in. Religions make very good targets.
