Given The Earlier History Of The Church, Is There Any Obvious Reason That Everyone Should Have Known Better?

 Incredibly, as the graves were being dug, mounds of red potatoes were found just inches under the prarie soil.  

 

I am so glad you went this way with it, I was expecting something somewhat more gory....seeing too many commercials of zombie games lately I guess.

I would have deleted the whole thread if I could have.

 

The question concerned something James E. Talmage said about a group of Mormons who were excommunicated in 1921 (for sharing their wives in what they considered acts of sacrifice.)

 

Talmage basically said that they should have known that that were violating their Temple vows, and when I found the words to the sealing ceremony online, and read them, that seemed to answer my question (and the question I was trying to ask on another, now closed thread.)

Scholars play and jest and snort

with tales best served as children’s sport

 

Tis fictional garble - "green jello tales"

Brigham and Joseph would prefer snails   

 

I said it once - I'll say  it again

I'll say it twice - is that a sin

 

I'll say it here - I'll say it there

But I'll just not say it anywhere

 

Green Jello is only Moron spam

but I wrote the book on green eggs and ham

 

For breakfast, lunch and sometimes dinner

green eggs and ham that's the winner

 

When hungry once, Joseph prayed for food 

twas a ham delivered that lifted his mood

 

An Araucana shelled - one or two

makes green eggs and ham - that's what they'd do

 

So no more tales of erroneous stuffs

I'm Sam I am - and thats enoughs!

In other words, they're trying to say, "Church records offer no clear insights into the origins of this tradition." But everyone knows it was BY that started it.

 

Of course Brigham Young started it. Nothing was cooked up in Utah without his knowledge.

I don't buy it. It's too simple.

 

I still think you are an evil clown bent on destroying this board to frighten children everywhere. You deleted the content when you unleashed something you were unable to control.

You can think what you like.

 

I didn't think the topic was worth discussing publicly after I found an answer to my own question, and I deleted what I could.

Which is exactly what a disturbing clown would say...........

Except he probably would have included a joke about balloon animals. Next time?

Hey!  That's exactly what my regular laugh sounds like!  I don't know what's supposed to be so creepy about it! :(  Sheesh, you really know how to rip a guy to shreds! :angry:

Im so confused!?!?!?

Don't worry, Val.  It'll pass.  Of course, it comes in waves, so don't get too used to the feeling of momentary clarity you have after it passes! :D
