He can't answer the question because he knows if he answers truthfully, you'll have won the argument. And, by God, he can't let THAT happen! 
Really eh Betzy? Let's see, you are now an apostate mormon that now goes to a "Christian" church correct?
So does your pastor work for free? Live in a Shack out back?
Don't be a hypocrite, your pastor works for filthy lucre, and priestcrafts his work. But hey, he got a degree from a university to preach, he must be right 
That makes no more sense than for me to write your GAs work for fithy lucre and priestcraft is their work.
Go grow up, Dubbs.
There's a difference between making your living at preaching, and working for the Lord in your latter years as an apostle of the Lord, you've already worked your whole life in another career.
Filthy lucre is getting paid to preach incorrect doctrine also. Which they do.
Oh, so now you're saying the Bible is incorrect doctrine?
You're such an arrogant little SOB.
No, not what I'm saying.
what I'm saying is there "interpretation" of the bible is incorrect.
Interesting. That isn't what you've told me in the past. You've told me, quite bluntly, that you believe some of the Bible to be "incorrect". And you slammed me because I didn't agree with that.
Yes, some of the Bible is incorrect, and if you read Joseph Smith's edited footnotes in the LDS version of the KJ bible, you would know this.
Course you admitted you don't own one, so how would you know this?
Never admitted any such thing. You assume quite a bit, don't you?
Personally, I put the Bible above the Book of Mormon.
Fact remains, whether you put the Bible above the BofM (why a LDS person would do that is illogical, but that's you) The bible has many mistakes, and needed correcting, and that was done, that's the point, I have said it has many mistakes, but those mistakes if you study the Prophets have been corrected is the point.
KitKat is correct in putting the Bible above the Book of Mormon.
This is why the Book of Mormon is known as a SECOND witness of Jesus Christ...not the ONLY testament of Jesus Christ...or the REPLACEMENT to the Holy Bible.
Actually you are wrong here also, (surprise surprise) Get in bed Jaye.
The Book of Mormon is ANOTHER witness of Jesus Christ and the Most correct book of scripture on earth.
I wouldn't say either are ahead of the other, but the Bible is the one that is in need of interpretation because of the many errors, omissions, removal of doctrine, and mistakes. This has been done by the Prophets, they have replaced the plain and precious parts that were removed.
That is the LDS view on it.
Not a "second" witness, and nobody said it's the "only" testement, and it's not a "replacement"
Your views are so far off at times Jaye it's comical to see.
Joseph Smith's mother educated her sons using the Holy Bible as a primer. It was a great part of his emotional and psychological upbringing, contained most of his spiritual education, and the Book of Mormon borrows heavily at times from verses from the Holy Bible.
Don't forget...the Nephites originated in the Holy land. The knowledge, laws, and teachings of the Old Testament was their basic ancestry, and the core of their heritage.
The Bible comes first. Not only does it contain a record and genealogy of the people of the covenant,the House of Israel, it contains record of God's will and His laws for these people.
The very will, and the very laws that Lehi and his family carried with them from the Holy land.
The Old Testament also contains numerous prophesies regarding the coming of a promised Messiah, who would free Israel from the bonds of slavery, and oppression.
The New Testament contains record, within the Four Gospels, of Christ's birth, ministry, death, and resurrection.
The Bible is the primary testament to Jesus Christ.
And the Book of Mormon, is the secondary testament to Jesus Christ.
Or...as it is stated on the first page of the Book of Mormon...'ANOTHER TESTAMENT OF JESUS CHRIST'.
It does not say, nor is it meant to be considered to be a replacement for the Bible, nor to draw attention from the Bible, nor to gainsay the Bible.
Once again...you have GROSSLY misinterpreted and misrepresented my words and my beliefs.
But that is only par for the course with you.
From my understanding and readings, they are equal, one is not above the other.
Although the Book of Mormon is the cornerstone of our religion. And, the Book of Mormon is "Another" testement, that does not interpret to "secondary" in anyone's mind but yours.
You need to stop trying to speak for everyone else. As far as I am concerned, the Book of Mormon is secondary to the Bible. If I were to be stranded on an island, and could only take one Scripture with me, it would be the Holy Bible. I know you'll disagree, that's ok. But this is how I feel.
Another thing, dubs. When I took Seminary, it was a three year program. The courses were 1) Old Testament, 2) New Testament and 3) Church History. Now, if we wanted to, we could take an extra credit class after school. I did. That class was the Book of Mormon. And that's one more reason I hold the Bible higher.
If you can show me the church believes the Bible is more important, I'd like to see it, never seen that, I've always been taught their equal.
Then why was my Seminary set up the way it was? To study the Book of Mormon, we had to take an after school/extra credit class. Don't believe it was that way? Too bad. It was.Chronlogical order.

It is NOT a complimentary terminology.
So if your say to your kids, time for Bed, go get in bed kids, it's derogatory?
Always? No excpetions?
 you are delusional.
Do you comprehend anything at all you read?What didn't I comprehend? Let me guess, "never mind" (because you don't know) Your just arguing because it's me.

Was it worth 1.2 when it was built? How much was it worth?
Is it a penthouse luxury extravagent condo?
Fact is, they are not given the condo, so the worth is not relavent,
Fact is, the condo is not extravagent, it has just appriciated in value, because of it's location and it is really one of a kind in that area. Big whoop.
Have you ever been to this condo? Think about it, dude . . . if the value of a FREAKING CONDO IN DOWNTOWN SALT LAKE CITY is $1.2 mil that says a hell of a lot more than saying a 50 year old house in California is worth $800,000. My nephews house in Huntington Beach sold for $800,000 last year and it's a 3 bed, 2 bath bungalow. The same house in SLC would sell for maybe $150,000. Big difference in the markets, so don't try to compare it to your parents house. Doesn't work.
No one is arguing whether or not the condo is "given" to them. Everyone knows that it doesn't become personal property - why do you even keep bringing that up?
Like I said before, I think about it from the perspective of the average family who is struggling to pay for food, clothing, shelter, and tithing (willingly, I know) and I see it as a bit extravagant.
Why do you have such a hard time with anyone disagreeing with you even on minor little issues?
I think it's irrevelant, it's not extravagent, it's value is because it's in a high rise condo in down town area, prime real estate. But it is not given to them, it's not extravagent, and is a moot point to begin with.

How about it Dubbs? Do you consider those paid jobs as compensation for their preaching?
