  ive just been listening on utube to learn about joseph smith and im wondering how our mormon friends view joseph.

  qcmbr, susanhere and others.. i saw on th emovie how joseph had a vison of moroni and joseph was supprised moroni was white and said he was a jew.

  jews happen to have dark skin like greeks or lebonese people they are semetic while the american indians are of the mongolian race.two different races altogether.. i also saw on the movie how joseph translated the plates by putting them in a hat with the two stones and waiting for the light to come so he could translate to the writer.

  I also saw on the movie how Joseph translated the plates by putting them in a hat with the two stones and waiting for the light to come so he could translate to the writer.

  When the writer hid the orininal transcript God got very angry with Joseph and said he would not allow him to translate from Lehi anymore and future translations would be from Levi. How convenient both books were the same account just happen to be written slightly different wording.

  I would like to know if you Mormons accually beleive this bull... and if as a church their are many dissenters?

  Im an SDA [Seventh day Adventist ]and we have a Prophet Ellen White who has also some baggage such as plagerising materal from other writers including Joseph and contradicting the bible by supporting the early Adventists with their erronious doctrine of the investigative judgement and the events surrounding 1844. The doctrine flys in the face of the protestant gospel of righteousness by faith and so many Adventists teach just the same as the roman church on Justification. .

  Ellen White beleive the black races were an amalgamation of humans breeding with animals.

  Ellen White was no where as colourful as Joseph she spent most of her time telling other people where they were wrong and said it was from god and telling them not to play cricket and ride bicycles.

  Also note the many references to the sharia the most horrific law known to man. This law is so evil and barbaric it is not enacted in its completeness by even the most extreem Islamic nations.

  sixofnine why dont you read youre own post? "You said at the beginning that Alquida never made demands about about America being Muslim but later in the post there is a reference of calling people to Islam?

  Beleive what you want but Bin Laden is a religious fanatic and no amount of appeasement will satisfy him he beleives the violence of jihad will go on to the day of judgement and nothing any of us do can change his murdereous ways.

  It should also be noted the palestine was never an issue with alquada until recently and the kurdish problem has never been an issue either.

  Sixofnine youre being conned.

  adam- sura 1:1 "{allah} only you we worship.

  " however, surah 2:25,26 allah tells the angels to worship adam since he can name all the animals.

  one angel refused and became satan.??

  I beleive that in the Australian constitution written about 100 years ago it gives men permission to beat their wives but not more than ones a week and not with a stick bigger than their little finger. Of course this behavour is now considered in prehistoric terms by todays generation.

  my sister-in-law is recently divorced and went to a witness online dating site.

  she mentioned that many of the witnesses specified that they wanted a white or latino only.

  of course there is nothing wrong with this (personal preference), but i found it interesting.

  Just saw on the TV an angry mob in Sudan they now want the death penalty for the poor teacher. Many said they would kill her themselves and were carrying weapons to carry it out.

  Ive just named my own teddy bear Mohamad.
