Private discussion area

The Journal of Discourses and the Journal of Wilford Woodruff could well fall into this category. You won't find those publications in Deseret Book today - and yet they were there in the 80's.

You can read the entire JOD online for free at byu.edu

It appears to be the site of an anti researcher.....so hopefully nothing has been changed....

Just before his death, Cleon Skousen spoke about the church having a list of forbidden books and publications, some of which the church had gone to the trouble of buying up all the copies and then destroying them.

Are you insinuating someone had Cleon killed for divulging this information? And who bought up these books? Got any official references? And destroying them? Is that not just another way of saying "they were moved to the Private Discussion area of the forum"!

No, I'm afraid making things up is not one of my weaknesses. Cleon died of natural causes as far as I know. Listen to a copy of a 'Conversation with Cleon Skousen' recorded in 2006. Brian had it on LDSConservative for download but then took it down for other reasons which I fully understand. At 1.30.00 Cleon speaks about a book called 'Selected Manifestations' which the church had sent to Cleon for him to review and then they decided to buy up all the available copies and burn them anyway. Im sorry. I know a lot of people on this forum have a hard time dealing with the TRUTH. But thats what he said.

Yes he is. Jim Huston is a vehement anti-mormon/ex-mormon. He had posted a YouTube vid called 'Lying For the Lord' which got thousands of hits. I spent many months in a war of words with him but he appears to be past the point of no return. His ex-wife is the great-grand-daughter of one the original Twelve.

And it is available at Deseret Book. Just saw it today.

Benchmark is a much better LDS book store though.

Thats great. For a number of years it wasn't available. Thats a good sign.
