It would not be the first time I flunked something.
Playing with context over specific words is a nitpicking game. The fraud of the tablets among other plagiarism of Masonic rituals and other things in the book of Mormon along with the life story of Joseph Smith are the reasons I dismiss Mormonism. I did not need to play word games to dismiss it.
This is the kind of attacks the left specializes in where you can infer anything by simply changing the context. Did you believe that Trent Lott was praising the historical racism of Strom Thurmond by using nice words at a celebration that had nothing to do with views held decades before?
To me it’s the same kind of attack that is subject to interpretation. It’s not necessary given the major theological disagreements that I have with the LDS faith. I know for a fact given my families history in rural Appalachia that many elders of church congregations were active members in the KKK. They were wrong and I believe they were opposed to biblical teaching. They believed themselves to be right within the times during which they lived. That is historical context and I don’t blame my generation for the actions of previous generations. That is as silly as the idea of reparations to me, but I obviously don’t feel as strongly about all of this as you do.
Possibly so, but just how many 'voters' actually interpret ANYTHING?
Most candidates are happy if they even remember their NAME!
Tell me how many TV political ads are into INTERPRETATION these days?
