One thing we have learned about mormonism is that they dismiss as “just opinion” of their leaders if it contradicts with what the current leaders are saying. IE The lds god changes his or her mind frequently.
So wouldn’t that make the lds god not a perfect being, I mean really a perfect being would have no reason to change his mind - just saying.
But hey, when you are not eternal and just progressed I guess it’s ok to make mistakes.

No different than Catholics confronted with the socialist claptrap spewing from bishops and Vatican officials: “They don’t speak for the Church” and “They’re poorly catechized”.

The refrain I continue to hear is “There is a historical LDS and there is a Doctrinal LDS”.

Doesn’t really help their case when I think of all those poor horses that died, on a hill in Cumrah under the weight of steel armor and weaponry some 2,000 years ago.

And those poor Laminites.

Convenient doublespeak ain’t it?

the absence of a formal creed means that each generation must produce a new set of gospel expositors to restate and reinterpret the doctrines of Mormonism."

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the Gospel of Jesus Christ, it does not need "reinterpretation" nor to be added to or detracted from. The Gospel (Good News) of Jesus is forever.
