The answer yesterday was the perfect example. It was chosen because it fit the issue exactly.
The answer did not attempt to explain whether “Adam-God” was right or wrong, true or false, or to side Brigham Young, Orson Pratt or President Kimball. The point is that “doctrine” becomes “false doctrine” depending on who you listen to and when you tune into the teachings.
Which is the point of the answer. YOU must sort it out, because the church will ebb and flow, and cannot be relied upon to have stable doctrine. Indeed, the reason Bruce R. McConkie’s Mormon Doctrine is now out of print is because of shifting positions.
Yesterday’s post did not explain my view on Adam as God, nor have I ever explained what I think on the topic or why.
I appreciate the many comments. Clearly there is a lot of interest and strongly held opinion on the subject.
