So what about kids adopted by Mormons? They weren’t deserving enough to be born into an LDS home. Does the family/community consider them less worthy than the “born” kids in the same family?
Adopted kids were pretty valiant too. At least they were chosen by a valiant Mormon family unlike those poor converts who had to find the truth all by themselves.
But the converts were more valiant than all the rest of the fools who weren’t predestined to become Mormons.
I would agree with Colorcountry.
When I was LDS, I would have phrased it like this:
“Those adopted by LDS families had parents who obviously used their free agency to make bad choices, but God corrected their parents poor choices by making sure the children were adopted into good LDS homes where they could grow up learning the Gospel.”
