It can be interpreted in a variety of ways, but I do think it was a shot over the bows.GeeR wrote: ↑February 24th, 2022, 11:16 pm I'm starting to feel some legitimacy to these kinds of signs or should I say omens. At first I brushed then off as happenstance but I've done a little more studying into what is called divination and I feel like the church has been neglect at worse and ignorant at best in the subject of divination. They've emphasized revelation when I see that divination is just as valid. I'm taking this negligence in divination as a sign of church apostasy because there are two forms of knowing Gods will: (1) Revelation and (2) Divination! But the church doesn't teach divination, in fact it denigrates it and associates it with of occult. The casting of lots is Biblical and scriptural and is in the Book of Mormon and it falls under the category of divination, not revelation.
Anyway the thought has now occurred to me that if the stature of the angle Moroni atop of the Salt Lake Temple is an omen or sign of things to come with it being struck down by lightening, is this a harbinger of the coming down of the temple itself if indeed the endowments are just copies of Masonic rituals that have been plagiarized by we Mormons, because it is an insult to God?
Remember also that curious tornado that hit Salt Lake City over twenty years ago? Most LDS who've heard of it emphasise that it avoided the temple
Let's read a neutral source on this:
Generally speaking, atmospheric conditions are rarely favorable for the development of tornadoes in Utah due to its dry climate and mountainous terrain. On fact, Utah ranks as having one of the lowest incidences of tornadoes in the nation, averaging only about two tornadoes per year, with only one F2 or stronger tornado once every seven years
https://www.weather.gov/slc/SLC_TornadoFrom the Wyndham Hotel, the tornado continued its northeast track, knocking down scaffolding and shearing off a crane at the site of the LDS Church's new Assembly Hall that was under construction. Next, it went up Capitol Hill and along the southeast side of the Capitol, through Memory Grove, and up along the northwest portion of the Avenues–just barely missing the LDS Hospital. It then lifted off the ground at about Edge Hill/Terrace Hill (20th Avenue and P Street). Along its path through the Avenues, houses experienced from minor to major damage, with hundreds of trees either uprooted or damaged. Throughout much of the tornado's destructive path, vehicles were tossed around and many were damaged or totaled by falling trees.
So you're telling us this thing just happens to touch down in downtown Salt Lake City (where tornadoes hardly happen), and then lifts off again on the edge of the urban area?
