At the time you are speaking of there were a lot more than Mormons in
Salt Lake City. You on the other hand havn't explaned Stone Cambell.
What happened all the sudden influenced him to create your church in
the 1800's?
Why don't you beleive in the Old Testament? Why are Babies punished
for Adam and Eves mistakes? Why don't you just stand up to your wife
and just tell her your going to the bar? How does your magical Bible
transfer power to you. Can you feal this power inside when you receive
it? You my brother(I called you that because I know it bothers you.)
You can't have it both ways brother. If you want to play in the sand box,
your going to get sand in your adult diaper.

You have gone over the edge, Skippy. There is no such person as "Stone Cambell" (or Stone Campbell)in the history of the American Restoration Movement.
I have never held that babies are punished for Adam and Eve's sins. If you want to dispute the doctrine of "original sin" and its alleged effect on innocent children, find yourself a Catholic to dispute with.
I have never held that the Old Testament is anything but the inspired Word of God and you can scan all the posts I ever put up on this forum and you will not find anything that even remotely suggests that I hold or ever held that view. What is your source for this accusation? Thin air?
Skippy, when I allege something about Mormon history or beliefs, I post documentation to support what I claim. Where is YOUR evidence that I believe any of those things you have falsely attributed to me. Let's have the EXACT source, too, not some vague reference to some inept web search you claim to have made.
Put up or shut up, Skippy. Put up the documentation, the evidence, the goods, or continue to look like the blithering dupe you have thus far shown yourself to be.
I am not at all surprised that you dispute the Mormon *****house sting. Here is more on that:
"14 June, 1900 - First Presidency and apostles agree to give $3,600 to Brigham Y. Hampton for his prior "detective work" in which he paid prostitute to allow him and nearly thirty LDS "Home Missionaries" and policemen to spy on anti-Mormons engaging in sex acts in Salt Lake City brothels in 1885. Although first counselor denies it at this meeting, in private meetings of First Presidency George Q. Cannon refers to Hampton's brothel work as "services rendered the Church" and "work in behalf of the Church." Hampton has been set apart as a Salt Lake temple worker since 1893, and another coordinator of brothel spying is the temple doorkeeper (1893-1910)."
