    God Reveals Mormons For What They Are

    Praise Jesus, for He works in mysterious ways. We know from reading the Holy Bible that He lays stumbling blocks before some, and sends delusions to others. In THIS case, He cxaused a spelling "error" to pass the eyes of not one but two editors, so that the truth might be revealed. Someone shout Glory, won't you please?

    Spelling error turns Mormons leaders into apostates

    Apostles, not apostates: BYU paper’s ungodly typo

    PROVO, Utah (AP) — Thousands of issues of Brigham Young University’s student newspaper were pulled from newsstands because a front-page photo caption misidentified leaders of the Mormon church as apostates instead of apostles.

    An apostate is someone who abandons a previous loyalty (to a faith, movement, politcal party, cause, etcetera).

    Many Christians — most of whom consider the Mormon Church to be, at best, a cult of Christianity, due to the many ways in which LDS teachings deviate from historical, Biblical Christianity — would consider the mistake to be somewhat of a Freudian slip.

    The newspaper staff retrieved as many of the 18,500 copies of the paper as possible and reprinted them with the correction. And it issued an apology to the apostles. The staff also explained how it happened: an error in spell-checking.

    It started when a student misspelled the word “apostle” when writing the photo caption. When the caption was put through the editing software’s spell checker, it was flagged, and the editor accidentally clicked the first word that came up on the correct list: “apostate.” The mistake made it past two proofreaders before being sent off to the printing press.
    Every True Christian™ knows who the apostates are.
    Who Will Jesus Damn?

    Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:

    Hypocrites (Matthew 24:51), The Unforgiving (Mark 11:26), Homosexuals (Romans 1:26, 27), Fornicators (Romans 1:29), The Wicked (Romans 1:29), The Covetous (Romans 1:29), The Malicious (Romans 1:29), The Envious (Romans 1:29), Murderers (Romans 1:29), The Deceitful (Romans 1:29), Backbiters (Romans 1:30), Haters of God (Romans 1:30), The Despiteful (Romans 1:30), The Proud (Romans 1:30), Boasters (Romans 1:30), Inventors of evil (Romans 1:30), Disobedient to parents (Romans 1:30), Covenant breakers (Romans 1:31), The Unmerciful (Romans 1:31), The Implacable (Romans 1:31), The Unrighteous (1Corinthians 6:9), Idolaters (1Corinthians 6:9), Adulterers (1Corinthians 6:9), The Effeminate (1Corinthians 6:9), Thieves (1Corinthians 6:10), Drunkards (1Corinthians 6:10), Reviler (1Corinthians 6:10), Extortioners (1Corinthians 6:10), The Fearful (Revelation 21:8), The Unbelieving (Revelation 21:8), The Abominable (Revelation 21:8), Whoremongers (Revelation 21:8), Sorcerers (Revelation 21:8), All Liars (Revelation 21:8)

    It wasn't really a spelling error, it was an editing error. The editor was trying to shift the blame to the student writer, when it's the editor's job to make sure the words that are printed are right. Hiring a robot to assist in spell checking is supposed to make the job easier, but someone has to pay attention to the robot. Another editor asleep on the job.
    May you be a blessing to every life you touch.

      Although many of the faithful True Christians(tm) will see this and ask, "And Who caused the drowsiness?" The answer, of course is, "God did it." It is a sign to LDS to abandon their heretical underwear and the teachings of their false prophet.
