This is true of all churches, and it is at the heart of LDS doctrine, that God continued to work through other churches (as He wished) to prepare the day when Joseph Smith could restore the priesthood authority. The main thing you believe on this subject is that God works through the Mormon church a lot more than the other churches, and He has made his intentions a bit more clear... yes, God decided to restore the priesthood authority to a bunch polygamists who later became a bunch of white Republicans (generally speaking). Indeed, the Lord works in mysterious ways.
    He told Joseph Smith they were all an abomination.

      Ah, yes, the old Salt Lake City-centric chauvenism. A force to be reckoned with in the fight for tolerance. Just kidding. I thought South Park's parody "The Correct Answer: The Mormons" was an apt response.

        Must be late. Seems like everyone is just tossing mud.

                  You can say that again. He fooled Joseph Smith into thinking he was translating a document written by Abraham that was actually created 1500 years after Abraham's supposed lifetime, so that he could test that all important attribute indispensable to salvation--a capacity for unquestioning belief in absurdities (Indy has it down pat, doesn't he). The ultimate troll.

                    Does God allow messageboard posting between kingdoms in the hereafter?

                      Sincerely stating that maybe you shouldn't be making assumptions about which kingdom you'll be posting from just now. I'm not completely sure that God would agree with your assessments... tolerance is a Christlike attribute.

                      Maybe I'm confused... are you making your arguments to DEFEND God and His church and do you therefore assume that He condones your behaviors????????

                        You are confused. I'm busting SU's chops simply for the joy of doing so rather than making any persuasive argument(s) that accurately reflect my sentiments.

                            It's embarrassing to watch easily Indy can play you two.

                              Why does God need a PR guy? Because mankind are such pussies they can't handle the truth? God doesn't mince words. If you don't like it or find yourself on the outside looking in, shape up or ship out.

                                If you are shipping out, do you still get the "nice package of parting gifts?"
