“I'm saying that the leaders of the church have locked the sacred cow called science in the stable and they won't let anybody enter; they should open it immediately so that we can milk that cow in the name of humanity and thus find the truth.” ShouldScienceHumanityNamesChurchLeaderAccountsSacredMilkCowsStableLockedScience And ReligionSacred Cows Author:Mehmet Murat Ildan
“A society like the Church, which claims to be Divine is perhaps more dangerous on account of the ersatz good which it contains then on account of the evil which sullies it. Something of the social labelled divine: an intoxicating mixture which carries with it every sort of license. Devil disguised.” EvilSocialChurchDangerousDivineDevilAccountsClaimsCarrieLicenseMixtures Book:Gravity and Grace Source: Gravity and Grace
“There are two keys to productive missionary work -- (1) family-to-family friendshipping (when a member family shares the gospel with a nonmember family) and (2) cooperation between members and the missionaries to reach people...Every member knows of nonmembers he or she can refer to the missionaries. Every father, mother, and youth in this church should share the gospel by giving a Book of Mormon, telling the account of the Prophet Joseph Smith, or inviting our acquaintances to a special meeting.” PeopleKnowsGivingShouldTwoBookMotherFatherChurchShareSpecialYouthKeysMembersAccountsMeetingsProphetProductiveCooperationMissionaryAcquaintanceInvitingFamily FriendsMissionary WorkJoseph SmithFather Mother Author:Spencer W.

“I would advise you to get all of your blessings written and preserve them...I do feel to enjoin it upon you to make a record of every official act of your life. If you baptize, confirm, ordain, or bless any person or administer to the sick, write an account of it. If every man will do this, the Church can write a correct account of it...if the power and blessings of God are made manifest in your preservation from danger...you should make a record of it. Keep an account of the dealings of God with you daily. I have written all the blessings I have received, and I would not take gold for them.” IfsMenFeelsShouldWritingPersonsMadeChurchRecordsWrittenDangerBlessingGoldSickAccountsEvery ManPreservesOfficialsBlessManifestPreservationAdviseDealings Author:Wilford Woodruff
