And for the lies they may realize, they brush aside because it doesn't make sense to what they've been taught growing up. Which, you should not, most of the general authorities in the highest of positions were all born and raised inside the church. Sounds odd, doesn't it? Especially since God sometimes people like Samuel the Lamanite to be a prophet, a person who is not even OF God's people.<br><br>Anyway, I personally find history and science to be VERY deceptive. Perhaps science more so than history, as I can honestly say a lot of their theories DO fall through. Example? Did you know that they recently learn E DOES NOT equal MC square? Well all be, Mr. Einstein was wrong. Lord knows how many more scientists who are! Probably all of them. They're no more deluded than the priesthood leadership of the church is.<br><br>How on Earth does one come to know the truth when everything is so....corrupt? The answer is simple: God alone, and he DOES speak to us if we will only but listen with a humble heart.<br><br>Man will lead you astray no matter how much "credibility" they claim to have or speak according to the world's standards. (And yes, that includes laying on of hands, MLA crap, research sources, science, history, etc.) But when when you hear God speak with his almighty power, you can know most assuredly that HE'D never lead you astray.Tohru Hondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17604683908315139747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8223497504999189608.post-69342119371141044822013-06-08T09:28:31.603-07:002013-06-08T09:28:31.603-07:00How reliable is this insider?

The forthcoming articles will be as frustrating as any announcement that comes from LDS, Inc. it will be great to have them make official efforts to answer questions.

I was rather disappointed when there seemed no effort to correct the assumption that heresy accusations had much to do with a political campaign.<br><br>I think the conned-men/conmen dichotomy might be simplistic. GAs were carefully selected and put into a role upholding a facade. Many of the conmen accusations apply to missionaries as well, but I think ignorant 19 year olds would have to be considered more in the conned-men category. We'll see what happens. I will be pleasantly surprised if the church does come clean.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8223497504999189608.post-4529079068341538762013-06-03T09:45:25.586-07:002013-06-03T09:45:25.586-07:00Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!
