Choking on meat: A Thread
But what do the 'Mormons' really, Really, REALLY believe!?
Recently I participated in a discussion with two very courteous and well intentioned men of another Christian faith who were trying to expose the challenges the church faces today. In our discussion we covered only two topics, but in a previous discussion they covered a number.
There was in insinuation that the church has secret teachings and a checkered past that its tried to hide for far too long, and that the jig is coming up - the truth is coming out - and members of the church are checking out.
Let me start by acknowledging there's some truth to that. There are elements of our history that are controversial. The church has been very guarded with elements of its history because of treatment we've faced in the past over them. So let's look at the merits of this case.
First, I think we should ask if there are ever times it's appropriate to withhold information.
To me, the scriptures and God's actions as a whole form a resounding yes.
