I think it’s a sign that they should renounce the weirdnesses of their founder and become orthodox Christians. I think many Mormons actually want to be orthodox Christians but don’t know where to go.

Being an orthodox Christian doesn’t mean they have to abandon their cultural customs (like their nice Family Home Evening), but it does mean that they have to shake off some of the nutty accretions of 19th century “spiritualism” brought by Joseph Smith and Brigham Young. Not to mention the beliefs about Indians arriving in cork submarines.

IBYOPIP ... in before your ‘offending’ post is pulled. Resty runs a tight ship in caucus service.

I’m wondering what the painting depicted before God obliterated the other parts and preserved His ‘likeness’?
