Inoculating young children

Post by deacon blues »

There is a bit of a fuss lately about a lesson on lds.org that is directed to young children. It concerns polygamy. Any thoughts?

God is Love. God is Truth. The greatest problem with organized religion is that the organization becomes god, rather than a means of serving God.

There has been a really enlightening video showing what was left out of the church videos.

Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

I would hope even a Sunbeam would be wise enough to call bullsh#t on this.

It's crazy how many people fear indoctrination from schools and universities, but support and encourage indoctrination from churches and politicians. :roll: :(

This is the same way we were taught all the stories of the religion and accepted them without question. This isn't new. Book of Mormon, Bible, the Restoration, Translation of the Bom/Abraham and on and on. It's the prime method of operation of religion.

Never mind what the archaeology shows about Egypt, the Americas, the Levant. Or the records in Egypt, the timing of a hydrocephalus as related to Abraham and so on. Or the problems of the timing of Abraham, the development of a priesthoodless egypt and the great flood. The racist underpinnings of the priesthoodless egypt and on and on.
