Conservatives Against Corn
Biofuel biofoolishness. Occam sock 'em. Welcome back, Diane Smith. Jilting Joseph Smith. What about Arnold? Plus more.

p>Many Mormons like to claim that Joseph Smith went to prison for
his belief, but he went to prison for denying what he called a “new
and everlasting covenant” that was essential to exaltation. He was
arrested for his persecution of those that opposed and exposed his
polygamous practices, and he died in a blazing gun battle in which
he killed at least two of his attackers and wounded another. While
the people who attacked the jail and murdered Joseph and Hyrum
Smith committed a despicable crime, don’t bring that story about
Joseph’s innocence to me because the historical record tells the
true story. And if you are so worried about due process, then why
weren’t the leaders of the Church concerned when they were
perjuring themselves in an effort to destroy a newspaper that dared
criticize them?

It’s a hoot, that quote of “sad, truly sad” in Richard Morlock’s little note at the end of yesterday’s letters.
p>Innuendos and no facts. But that’s pretty much typical of those who’d advance his cause(s), never anything even close to offering proof of his claim. br> — Jack Frost /p>
