Celebrating King James Bible
Some others may have read the August Ensign, and noted the pages dedicated to celebrating 400 years of King James Bible. I was sort of inspired to put my 2 cents about the Bible in ordered bits as if someone else were interested in my thoughts.

Misconceptions, Testimony etc.
[Edited for some glaring grammatical mistakes, and begging for your understanding regarding the remaining ones.]
I’ve been thinking–and of course reading–about the so-called shaken faith thing. What I’m about to say, is given without documentation, just some personal observation.

The Church Condemned
