Yep...I've noticed that articles I archived a year or so ago now have dead links...
If mormonism were legitimate, they would be shouting all the history from the rooftops instead of scrubbing it from view. Speaking of scrubbing, has your family been "called" for cleaning duty?
This is an excerpt from one of my previous posts on the matter, note that top level “prophets” are giving their followers an admonition.
“What I dont understand about the mormons complaining about us confronting you is that your own prophets and apostles issued the challenges. Dared any to challenge them on doctrine. Why then, arent the mormons of today accepting those challenges? Are the words of their prophets to be ignored?” [SZonian]
Joseph Smith - “Wherefore, confound your enemies; call upon them to meet you both in public and in private” Doctrine and Covenants 71:7 (1831)
Orson Pratt - “convince us of our errors of doctrine, if we have any, by reason, by logical arguments, or by the word of God, and we will be ever grateful for the information” The Seer, p. 15 (1854)
George A. Smith - “If a faith will not bear to be investigated; if its preachers and professors are afraid to have it examined, their foundation must be very weak.” Journal of Discourses, vol. 14, p. 216 (1871)
Brigham Young - “I have had many revelations; I have seen and heard for myself, and know these things are true, and nobody on earth can disprove them. ... I say to the whole world, receive the truth, no matter who presents it to you. Take up the Bible, compare the religion of the Latter-day Saints with it, and see if it will stand the test.” Journal of Discourses, vol. 16, p. 46 (1873)
Brigham Young - “I am here to give this people, called Latter-day Saints, counsel to direct them in the path of life. ... If there is an Elder here, or any member of this Church, called the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, who can bring up the first idea, the first sentence that I have delivered to the people as counsel that is wrong, I really wish they would do it; but they cannot do it, for the simple reason that I have never given counsel that is wrong; this is the reason.” Journal of Discourses, vol. 16, p. 161 (1873)
Wilford Woodruff - “I am willing to exchange all the errors and false notions I have for one truth, and should consider that I had made a good bargain. We are not afraid of light and truth. Our religion embraces every truth in heaven, earth or hell; it embraces all truth” Journal of Discourses, vol. 18, p. 117 (1875)
Yeah, wife and son spent an entire Saturday scrubbing the nursery a couple of weeks back. When she went to leave, doing a bldg. check, she kept finding trashcans full, rooms dirty, food in areas, etc. They ended up spending an additional 3 hours cleaning up other peoples mess.
They didn't get home until after 8p.m.
