Never!
you spin and rail!
And once again, you show the lurkers, the inability to defend the indefensible (LDS doctrine).
I do not have to “spin”, I speak from experience.
The LDS church, however, are masters of “spin”, as evidenced by how they handled the Mark Hoffman situation. They paid all this money to Hoffman, to buy forged documents they believed were real, and were accepted by the membership in general (at least in Utah), then had egg on their face when it came to light that he was a forger and a theif, and a murderer.
Joseph Smith would have been SO proud! Hoffman was a man after his own heart.
BTW, if the LDS first presidency supposedly has powers of discernment, how come they didn’t recognize the documents were fraudlent at the beginning??
Kinderhook resty - bogus prophet translates bogus plates
Book of Abraham - bogus prophete mistranslates pagan prayer scroll.
Spin resty, spin some more.
