How many of us, if we had lived in the time of Joseph Smith, would have believed a 14-year-old boy had been visted by Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ?

I thought you always preached that mormons don't believe in the trinity and that they only believe that Jesus is God? Then how could a 14-year-old boy be "visted by Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ"? I think you accidently exposed a constradiction in your zealotry. Doh!

Oh my! SOMEbody was exposed and it wasn’t Colofornian.

999, Do you know what the trinity is? Are there two personages in the Holy Trinity?

Brilliant.

Not.

The old "better to remain silent..." meme comes to mind...

No on the latter. (They teach Jesus is one of many, many gods...they reduce Jesus to just one god among a multi-level marketing divine scheme...they don't even know who's head of their grand "council of gods"...and obviously if you are a polytheist, you are by definition not a trinitarian).

Then how could a 14-year-old boy be "visted by Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ"?

Well these were the journalist's words -- not mine. Even in the official Mormon account of this, these "beings" are only identified as "personages" and one as the "son" of the other. (It's the Mormons who read into who it was, if it even happened at all, which I don't believe it did).
