Bladski, thank you. This is a very interesting discussion. However, the translation still bugs me. Joseph Smith, as you say, was a young backwoods boy, and as such, fairly uneducated, so why he should have used language such as he did I really can't understand. Why would he say 'ye' and 'thee' rather than 'you'? I know you can't answer that, and don't expect you to try. It's just an observation and something that, for me, remains a mystery I would really like to solve.
Thanks also for your offer for us to meet representatives of your church, but I must decline. I've met representatives of the Mormon church before and had lengthy discussions with them. Whilst I couldn't fault the Mormon way of life - family - healthy living etc - there was one thing that bothered me greatly. I was given quite a lot of literature, and amongst the leaflets was one meant specifically for the outreach people, and it said something like, 'If a man doesn't believe you, make him your enemy.' That to me, is not Christianity.
