It’s pretty obvious what “paragons” are being defended here...Joe Smith, Brigham Young, Bruce McConkie...and on and on.
Yes they are/were true Paragons I am glad you agree.
My name comes from the online game City of Heroes though. Is there any other thing you would like to try to twist to attack the Mormon religion?
Does God have a God and that God have a God, ad infinitum?
Smith, Young and McConkie PARAGONS???, ROFL.
The first two were swindlers, polygamists, thieves and dictators, and the last one was a bigot and either a complete fool or a liar.
Not exactly ‘role models’.
