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.

Tom Marr was in for Levin Friday, and he said we are idiots if we don’t accept Mormanism as being no different than Catholicism. He also said I should shut up and quit resisting the Borg.

He was a disgusting Mitt pimp the whole show, Levin should apologize.

The religion I am most concerned about is Islam, because I once lived in an area surrounded by Muslims and have studied their history going back 13+ centuries.

In conclusion let us summarize this grand key, these “Fourteen Fundamentals in Following the Prophet”, for our salvation depends on them.


1. The prophet is the only man who speaks for the Lord in everything.
2. The living prophet is more vital to us than the standard works.
3. The living prophet is more important to us than a dead prophet.
4. The prophet will never lead the church astray.
5. The prophet is not required to have any particular earthly training or credentials to speak on any subject or act on any matter at any time.
6. The prophet does not have to say “Thus Saith the Lord,” to give us scripture.
7. The prophet tells us what we need to know, not always what we want to know.
8. The prophet is not limited by men’s reasoning.
9. The prophet can receive revelation on any matter, temporal or spiritual.
10. The prophet may advise on civic matters.
11. The two groups who have the greatest difficulty in following the prophet are the proud who are learned and the proud who are rich.
12. The prophet will not necessarily be popular with the world or the worldly.
13. The prophet and his counselors make up the First Presidency—the highest quorum in the Church.
14. The prophet and the presidency—the living prophet and the First Presidency—follow them and be blessed—reject them and suffer.

I testify that these fourteen fundamentals in following the living prophet are true. If we want to know how well we stand with the Lord then let us ask ourselves how well we stand with His mortal captain—how close do our lives harmonize with the Lord’s anointed—the living Prophet—President of the Church, and with the Quorum of the First Presidency.
