Tell me then why did the curtain tear from the TOP to the BOTTOM?
So that no man could say, a man did that. I was from God, revealing the temple - IE no more secrets.

This verse still stands no matter what you feel your version is on the torn curtain svcw.
Matthew 7:6
6 ¶Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
In other words in this situation do not give unto those who have ill will towards you, who lack reverence, so they can trample on Holy things even those in their own ignorance.
Jesus also taught to Love those who you think are you enemy or see or understand things differently from you
Even those of us who feel we have the fullness of the Gospel, meaning for Salvation, it does not mean we have nor know every thing, the LDS know there is more of the Book of Mormon to come forth, and we surely are witnessing today floods of stuff is surfacing or coming forth out of the ground, pertaining to lost Biblical things in relationship to the Bible.
Jesus has mercy for those, who for some reason could not receive, did Jesus not say, Forgive them Father for they know not what they do?
That was not only for Crucifying their Lord but also contenting His word.
What you replied has zero do do with what I asked.
Why was the curtain torn from top to bottom?
Why did you mention Crucifixion?
It is the Garden that mormonism teaches, the Cross is but a footnote in mormonism.
What floods of stuff are you talking about? Links please. And what would this "stuff" have to do with the BOM?
It sure seems like there would be some mention on FR about all this "stuff".
We may talk of men being redeemed by the efficacy of his [Christ’s] blood; but the truth is that that blood has no efficacy to wash away our sins. That must depend upon our own action.”
[ LDS Apostle Amasa M. Lyman, Journal of Discourses, Vol. 7, p. 299, 1859]
the mormon god drove the mormons out of OH and MO because of their sins
D&C 98:19-20: “Behold...am not well pleased with many who are in the church at Kirtland; For they do not forsake their sins, and their wicked ways, the pride of their hearts, and their covetousness, and all their detestable things...”
D&C 50:4 — what Smith told the LDS church at Kirtland in May, 1831: “Behold...have looked upon you, and have seen abominations in the church that profess my name...”
“...the inhabitants of Zion are terrible...” (D&C 45:70)
Also, Smith said that the affliction, persecution and being cast out of the land of inheritance (D&C 101:1) was because God “suffered the affliction to come upon them, wherewith they have been afflicted, in consequence of their transgressions...” (D&C 101:2)
Mormons declared war on the United States
Sally Denton’s 2003 book entitled: American Massacre: The Tragedy at Mountain Meadows, September 1857 (Vintage Books, division from Random House):
“...small guerilla forces on swift horses and under the direction of Danite chiefs William Hickman and Porter Rockwell began harassing the army. Setting fire to the government’s wagons and stampeding its cattle herds, the Avenging Angels created havoc for the already demoralized American troops. On October 3 the Danites burned Fort Bridger, then set fire to the grass surrounding the army post, threatening the survival of the government’s grazing lifestock. On October 5, fourty-four Danites raided an army supply train, burning the seventy-five wagons loaded with three thousand pounds of desperately needed bacon, coffee, flour, ham, and other foodstuffs, and running off fourteen hundred head of the army’s cattle. The army troops moved two miles away and from the smoldering Fort Bridger established a new camp, which they named for the army’s commanding general, Winfield Scott.” (Sally Denton, p. 168)
