Great post! Thanks for sharing this great talk. Full of divine truth.

Why, that's sure "funny" that when 53,000 Lds missionaries go around asking people to "pray about the Book of Mormon," for some reason there's nary a verse in the BoM about women being divine.

And here the Lds Doctrine & Covenants says the Book of Mormon is the "fulness of the everlasting gospel."

Now here you'd think that degrees of glory; the ability to become a god; supposed highest-degree exaltation...would all be relevant to the Mormon gospel. I guess it's not. NONE of those things are mentioned in the Book of Mormon.

Isn't that called spiritual bait-and-switch? Asking people to pray about & accept spiritual content that isn't even present? Isn't that a form of spiritual fraud?

And where does it say in the Book of Mormon that you have to be married to be either pure, complete or be eligible to be in God's presence? If that's part of the "fulness of the everlasting gospel," what verse is it in the Book of Mormon?

If you were ever an LDS missionary, and you asked people to pray about the Book of Mormon, how were they to read & pray about something that's not there? How could they accept a "salvation proposal" when the proposal was lacking MOST of the vital details?

Don't Lds missionaries who do this engage in spiritual fraud?

That is a VERY apt description.
