....One of the most significant 2013 edition changes is the heading to the Official Declaration 2, which states the following: "Early in its history, Church leaders stopped conferring the priesthood on black males of African descent. Church records offer no clear insights into the origins of this practice"....
....The other change is the Book of Abraham Introduction... They no longer admit, as Joseph Smith wrote in History of the Church, that it was written by the hand of Abraham. (History of the Church, 2:23536, 34851). Rather, it is an "inspired" translation. This is an obvious migration to one of the several solutions advanced by LDS apologists to overcome the deficit on the proven inability of Joseph Smith to actually translate Egyptian.
Huge kudos to the writer, for coming up with the brilliant "canonbombed!"
False religion. Other religions with obvious errors need to also admit their errors and return to the Bible. However, to say so here would cause a chorus of accusations of being a ___________-basher. lol.
So...The Lds church...
Unveils its...
...duplicious reasoning as to why it took "this opportunity" to make some editorial changes in its "sacred" docs...(as if we are somehow to believe that we don't live in a digital age)...
...openly racist past from the top-down -- from men who were supposedly THE very vocal chords of God on earth...
...plus the conclusion from the Mormon church that, "Hey, I guess our 'prophets' can lead the Mormon church astray, after all"
Next you’ll doubt the gold tablets, magic glasses and the Angel Moroni.
Well, considering the thousands of changes already to the BOM and DAC to correct for errors in geography and/or history... What’s a few more?
Say what you want about reconciling small vagaries between manuscripts of the OT and NT... They haven’t needed to be “fixed”.
Amazing is in is not that this “book” which was given directly from the lds god, has to be revised again because of all the mistakes and lds god mind changes.
Well I’d say you just can’t make this up....
It seems that the great harlot in rev 17 is causing a lot of strife, so many of the big religious institutes racing like mad to be the one.
