It’s still fun to see that I am related to men who translated the KJV...by last name anyways. :)

“Hey, they didn’t pay attention to Deuteronomy 17:17, Leviticus 18:18 or numerous Book of Mormon passages against polygamy”

Keep digging into the past to bitch about the Mormons. You just never give it up, do you? You know the Mormons do NOT practice polygamy any more. Just like you don’t practice slavery like your ancestor ‘Christians’ likely did.

She never said they still do. She said they ignored (past tense) the scriptures about it.

I kinda enjoyed doing genealogy when I was LDS, even took a class at BYU. Fave quote from the class:”I can’t wait till I die, then I can be in the IGI!”

I don’t do genealogy anymore because I won’t pay for Ancestry.com (owned by the LDS) and it can be a hassle to find records the records without them.

Are you bitching about me? Why is it you seem to set one standard for others, but then never seem to be able to live up to your own standard yourself?

Be consistent. Whatever's your own standard for tone, content, etc., then start with yourself.

You know the Mormons do NOT practice polygamy any more. Just like you don’t practice slavery like your ancestor ‘Christians’ likely did.

Why are you so good about claiming assumptions but being off-base. (No, no known ancestors engaged in slavery)

And, unlike Mormons and polygamy, I don't say my ancestors who are in heaven are currently practicing slavery on the other side of the veil.
Nor, unlike Mormons and polygamy, do I say Jesus is going to re-institute slavery when he returns.
Nor, unlike Mormons and polygamy, do I say Jesus thought slavery was a "holy practice".
