#1...Per the article itself, Bott reduces it to "principles." With Mormonism, that's a key word. Everything is reduced to "principles."

In true Christianity, the Gospel is "good NEWS."

In Mormonism, it's Mormonistic "principles."

What other point here...even tho the Mormon church cracked down upon Bott, this one writer in the Trib asked these relevant questions re: what Bott taught:

"But did Bott teach false doctrine? Were his views incompatible with Mormon theology? If so, how did a man who gets paid to teach students at an LDS university about Mormon theology not understand this crucial theological point? This is a man who spends the better part of his adult life immersed in the writings and teachings of the men who run The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints — someone who asserts on his university web page that he’s an expert on the "doctrines of the gospel."
