Is Accepting Christian Evidence Special Pleading?
#22
RE: Is Accepting Christian Evidence Special Pleading?
But even with the Mormonism evidence, even the MORMONs have a problem with their own evidence!!

Joseph Smith's hand written account of his first Visitation contradicts the 'official' Mormon version of that event. And unfortunately for Joseph Smith, it's the 'official' version they require belief in to avoid excommunication. Poor old Joe, by committing his version of the First Visitation to paper he has committed a grievous error for which he would be tossed out onto the street.

Given the Mormon predilection for schisms, however, (over a hundred in less than 200 years, BTW) I'm sure Joe would just move on and start another religion.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
