Blaine, I have read anti-mormon authors, mormon standard works, mormon apologists and commentaries, including Nibley and Reynolds. Would you consider Nibley and reynolds reliable LDs sources for me to read?
I may have made an error or two that I read from somewhere that was not 100% accurate, or possibly misquoted someone here or there, I do not deny that, but I think what I have written is probably quite accurate. Accurate enough for all of us to see that something is rotten in SLC. Plus, the sources Kevin has so meticulously enumerated confirm most, if not all, of what I have written. I only hope someday, kevin, that the Holy Spirit enables you to see the truth of the LDS.

Actually, Blaine, I am looking for Mormon Scriptures that can be substantiated by facts. Quite a different thing than what you said.

Your list of "truths" about what we believe, Perry, would not stand up to any scriptures that I know of, Mormon or otherwise. You are touching on almost all the doctrines I have heard repeated by anti-Mormons in their many attempts to discredit the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They dig up some obscure commentaries made in moments of unwary speculation, and try to attach these to the official belief system of the LDS Church. If I as a sunday school teacher were to dwell on these doctrines as if they were fundamental truths, with more than passing commentary, I would soon be removed from teaching the Latter-day Saint people. If you want to know what we teach, read current commentary by current LDS writers, or go to the official scriptures--the BoM, the D&C, and etc.
