“Well, at least I am Christian enough not to call other people names like you and Elsie.”

I said you were “willfully ignorant”, that is not a name, it is a statement of fact because you are willfully ignoring the historical statements of Gov. Ford. I will be happy to stop discourse with someone who is willfully ignorant because it is as productive as arguing with a brick. Just please don’t mischaracterize what just went on with name calling.

“Our conversations are complete since you do not have the ability to be civil with those that disagree with you or fail to heed your orders.”

I am exceedingly civil with anyone who wishes to present factual information, though we may disagree on the interpretation. I simply do not abide the willfully ignorant, they are a pox on civil discourse.

I just can’t resist one last question. Who stopped the annihilation of Nauvoo if it wasn’t Gov. Ford? ? ?

The militia had called themselves up and were well formed. The Mormon Legion was also ready for a fight. The only one who could have kept the warring bands apart was Gov. Ford - and as he states in his book, he disbanded a number of militias by his order. But go sulk in your ignorance OMM, who needs to debate someone who wears a bucket on their head.

At least I have a head. Go attack someone that cares what you have to say.
