Articles of Faith

13 We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul—We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

Yes Joey Smith the guy who invented the Mormonism did plagiarize scriptures from the Christian Bible for that part of his religious tenets...

but Smith was a murderer, an adulterer, an occultist, a child rapist, a thief, a leader of organized crime and he made war on the United States...

he didn’t practice what he preached...

His article 13 did not describe him...

I can only ASSUME, that since you have NOT commented on your leaders comments listed at 273; they do NOT fall into any of these categories.
