How can you possibly spew that stuff. Are you chuckling to yourself as you type.
Reverse human progress???????? Is the mormon church really that pro-found an entity that it could reverse human progress.
Surely you aren't so full of yourself as to believe you can narrow it to individuals and decide for them whether the church advances or hinders their progress.
Perhaps I should add you to the illustrious threesome. Now it is Seattle Ute, Indy, Tex and Lingo.
