Be ready for a nuke attack before inauguration.

It may be, for instance, that nothing except the power of faith and the authority of the priesthood can save individuals and congregations from the atomic holocausts that surely shall be.

Funny how the underlined part is always ignored when this quote gets thrown about. It completely changes the context of the quote.

It also seems that many do not know how to read English. As stated, the meaning is that the atomic holocausts "shall surely be" and that it "may be" that nothing except he power of faith and the authority of the priesthood can save individuals and congregations from said holocausts.

But as usual, people see what they want to see.

You are, of course, correct, Original Intent. As it appears the issue is the inflammatory nature of the subject, i.e., atomic holocausts, let's change the wording to something nobody will deny exists, shall we? Here it is with the wording changed as highlighted in red:

It may be, for instance, that nothing except the power of faith and the authority of the priesthood can save individuals and congregations from the lying politicians that surely shall be.

Now how does that sentence read? Well, it's obvious that there will absolutely be lying politicians and the only way to save ourselves from them MAY BE by the power of faith and the authority of the priesthood. On the other hand, we may save ourselves through constant study and vigilance. Or there may be other ways to save ourselves from the corrupt politicians.

If George Albert Smith saw a black man in his vision, he would have certainly used the word "negro". "Greek extraction" would have meant Greek.

I have not studied George Albert Smith in detail yet so I have to ask: Can you point to examples from Smith's talks or writings where he uses the word negro?

The entire country called black people negros back then. That a negro would ever be president would have been ten times more notable than someone merely "of Greek extraction." I'll leave it to you to perform the utterly ridiculous task of determining whether George Albert Smith actually did or didn't ever use the word "negro".

[Chip]

How's this scenario:

MSM has accused Russia of helping Trump. Jill Stein recount is used as occasion to falsely confirm Russian involvement. Hostilities whipped up against Russia in the MSM. The PTB nuke an American city and blame Russia. The neocons get their war with Russia, after all.

Wow Chip, you are onto a realistic and utterly evil scenario. Shining a light on this now for all to see.

I was born in the South and can tell you for a fact that in the first half of the 20th century another word was popular down there. It begins with N and rhymes with Digger. It's a fairly popular word in modern rap "music."

Except Obama and our intelligence community has already said there was no cyber attack or manipulation of the election results.

Well, I know Joseph Smith used the term "negro", so I would suppose George Albert Smith would have, too.

I thought you were supposing maybe George Albert Smith was politically correct before his time, being a prophet and everything, but you were imagining the opposite. I was worried I had triggered a snowflake. I'm relieved now.

I'm not big on cartoons. I prefer real life:

Gotta love those seven seconds of stunned silence!

You are, of course, correct, Original Intent. As it appears the issue is the inflammatory nature of the subject, i.e., atomic holocausts, let's change the wording to something nobody will deny exists, shall we? Here it is with the wording changed as highlighted in red:

It may be, for instance, that nothing except the power of faith and the authority of the priesthood can save individuals and congregations from the lying politicians that surely shall be.

Now how does that sentence read? Well, it's obvious that there will absolutely be lying politicians and the only way to save ourselves from them MAY BE by the power of faith and the authority of the priesthood. On the other hand, we may save ourselves through constant study and vigilance. Or there may be other ways to save ourselves from the corrupt politicians.

You make a good point here.

I have few question for you: Why do you think that BRM was the only apostle before or since to have stated that there would be an atomic holocaust? Is is possible that he was a product of his cold-war era when everybody assumed the US / Russia would be involved in a nuke war? Is it possible that that statement was his opinion like when his FIL JFS said men would never get to the moon?

I have few question for you: 1. Why do you think that BRM was the only apostle before or since to have stated that there would be an atomic holocaust? 2. Is is possible that he was a product of his cold-war era when everybody assumed the US / Russia would be involved in a nuke war? 3. Is it possible that that statement was his opinion like when his FIL JFS said men would never get to the moon?

Those are all fair questions to which I have no response other than:
1. Not sure.
2. Yes.
3. Yes.

I only joined the conversation because I thought the meaning of BRM's comment was being misinterpreted.

I had a martial arts instructor explain the best defense for a strike by an opponent this way: Don't be there.

Good advice, but where is "there"?

That is for you to find out, Grasshopper.

Apparently it would be better to be a cockroach.

Yep, Cockroaches can survive anything. Move to the welsh mountains and live in the cavity of a rock...worked for Ether!!

You are. The USA is bound to defend Taiwan and Japan and South Korea when any of this countries are attacked by treaties with each one.
