I am open to the truth. In my judgment, what you have presented is not the truth, but rather a hasty, undiscerning gathering of whatever you can find that can be seen as damaging to those who believe that the Book of Mormon is what it claims to be.
God knows your motives. I do not. But I cannot see how your sloppy attacks can do anybody any good. I think that you are wasting the days of your probation trying to tear down what you don't like, instead of laboring to build up what you love.
Open your self to the truth - it is freeing Godzilla.
Oh really John - or are you more interested in the church being 'true' than the truth? AFA the bom's claims, we've hardly scratched the surface on that point John, so far we've been discussing the false presentation of smith's so-called 'virtue' and martial fidelity shall we say. And I've hardly scratched the surface of the research and evidences that show to all with an unbiased mind that smith practiced polygamy (in addition to starting it).
You earlier stated my sources were 'tainted' because they were trying to justify their 'sin'. I've supplied sources that are free of that John - and included smith's own words as well.

My so-called 'attacks' have been nothing but the presentation of the truth. Calling them 'sloppy' is just a sad effort to deflect the sharpness of the truth they contain. Some may want to hide behind their walls of fictious reality - denying truth and holding to fantasy - and that fantasy will eventually end up being their destruction. Silence regarding Smith's own handwriting on the subject is very telling as to fact or fantasy.
Whew, just in the nick of time, too.
