LOL. 12 dwarves according to these guys.
GREAT! LOL.
How would you know? Are you saying Bush is a secret Mormon?
I learned those handshakes called tokens when I attended the LDS Temple in the 1970’s.
I wonder WHY it is that Bush would know them since they are so sacred to Mormons that they make an oath never to reveal them, and what on EARTH he is doing exchanging the “Sure Sign of the Nail,” with the man who calls himself a “Prophet.”
If you don’t wonder why, it is a curious thing.
In the sum of things to worry about, a handshake between the president of the U.S.A. and the president of the Mormon Church, one of the most conservative voting demographics in the country, does not concern me one iota. Why should it?
I guess you already answered that question. The concerns of heaven far outweigh these insignificant earthly worries. I suppose it is simply a matter of priorities.
You cannot serve two masters.

Wow, always the conspiracist. Go back and read the thread. I never addressed him. I believe it was the other way around. Where do you get your ideas?
As far as his beliefs in witchcraft, that is obviously outside the doctrine and acceptance of the Church. Witchcraft is the OPPOSITE of the true power of God, given to man through the Holy Priesthood.
These opposites have been in conflict in times past, as they will again, I'm sure.
A couple examples come to mind. The Priests of Pharaoh who used the power of their gods to duplicate the power of Moses' rod. The Priests of Baal in a "power contest" with Elijah. We all know which God won, in both cases, that of the True and Living God, giving his power to man through the priesthood.
What you need to understand, and apparently Frank as well, is this verse from the Book of Mormon.
2 Nephi 2:11
11 For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my first-born in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither sense nor insensibility.
Thank you for your wonderful ping. I have never threatened to sue anyone on FR.
Yes, I’m back.
Wow that was a long vacation....
