JOSEPH SMITH RETURNS IN A VISION

I GOT THIS OFF LARK NEWS.

Joseph Smith returns to assert finer points of doctrine




SALT LAKE CITY — Mormon faith founder Joseph Smith paid a surprise visit to the church's Council of the Twelve Apostles in May, appearing to them in a collective vision and insisting they return to key teachings which have fallen out of favor.
According to eyewitnesses, Smith insisted that:
-the church embrace its founding teaching that the "Negro race" is descended from Cain, and that "black people are black because of their misdeeds in the pre-existence;"
-polygamy is the preferred mode of living, and is acceptable to God as it was in Abraham's day;
-Jesus is Satan's brother, and their fight over this planet is a brotherly tussle for control.
Smith also commanded the Apostles to launch an "It's Your Planet" evangelistic drive to recruit new members, based on the organization's belief that in the afterlife each Mormon believer will oversee a planet or planetary system.
The Apostles emerged from the meeting ashen-faced.
"He put us in a difficult spot," said one. "Our mainstreaming efforts have not met with his approval."
President Gordon Hinckley, whom Mormons consider a prophet, immediately sequestered himself in his office, "like a whipped puppy," said one worker.
Smith's two-hour sermon also included lighter moments. Smith confided that he "wasn't getting as much tail" in the afterlife as he had with his 30-plus wives on Earth, and that the planet he'd been assigned was icy and desolate, far away from God "who finds me annoying," he said. Smith also said he'd tried to send the gold plates on which he'd received his "gospel" back to earth, but they'd been lost in the mail. He lamented that he'd declined package insurance and encouraged the elders to use FedEx whenever possible.
In recent years, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints has tried to position itself in the Christian mainstream, distancing itself from beliefs some find outmoded. Those efforts could be disrupted by Smith's latest revelation, observers say. •

GOD HELP US

California Clerks Stay Open Extra Hours to Grant Marriage Licenses to Dozens of Same-Sex Couples
Monday, June 16, 2008

Phyllis Lyon, left, and Del Martin, right, swear that the information on their marriage application is correct at City Hall in San Francisco.
SAN FRANCISCO — Dozens of gay couples were married Monday after a landmark ruling making California the second state to allow same-sex nuptials went into effect.

At least five county clerks around the state extended their hours to issue marriage licenses, and many same-sex couples got married on the spot.

"These are not folks who just met each other last week and said, `Let's get married.' These are folks who have been together in some cases for decades," said Kate Kendell, executive director of the National Center for Lesbian Rights.

The May 15 California Supreme Court ruling overturning bans on same-sex marriage took effect at 5:01 p.m.

The really big rush to the altar was not expected to take place until Tuesday, which is when most counties planned to start issuing marriage licenses to gay couples. Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of couples from around the country are expected to seize the opportunity to make their unions official in the eyes of the law.

In San Francisco, Mayor Gavin Newsom, who helped launch the series of lawsuits that led the court to strike down California's one-man-one-woman marriage laws, presided at the wedding of Del Martin, 87, and Phyllis Lyon, 84.

Newsom picked the couple for the only ceremony in City Hall Monday in recognition of their long relationship and their status as pioneers of the gay rights movement. More than 600 same-sex couples have made appointments to get marriage licenses in San Francisco over the next 10 days.

Martin sat in her wheelchair during the ceremony in Newsom's office, which was open to a few elected officials, reporters and friends.

After the mayor pronounced them "spouses for life," the couple kissed, drawing huge applause.

Newsom called officiating the wedding "this extraordinary and humbling gift."

Meanwhile outside City Hall, a crowd of well-wishers gathered to wish the happy couple congratulations.

A handful of people opposed to gay marriage were also there. Some held signs with statements including "Jesus said go and sin no more."

Just hours before the ruling went into effect, a conservative legal group asked a Sacramento court to order the California agency that oversees marriages to stop issuing gender-neutral marriage licenses.

Gary Kreep of the San Diego County-based United States Justice Foundation said his group filed a petition on behalf of five county supervisors from Yuba, Stanislaus, Nevada and Sutter counties. The petition argues the state Department of Public Health failed to hold legally required public hearings on the licenses and claims legislators must amend state marriage laws before the licenses are valid.

A hearing on the matter was scheduled for Tuesday.

Also Monday, a conservative Christian law firm and a church joined in faxing letters to county clerk offices, telling them that they do not have to do work related to same-sex marriages if it violates their religious beliefs.

Despite the last minute legal efforts, dozens of same-sex couples were married in ceremonies at city offices in San Francisco, Alameda, Sonoma, Los Angeles and Yolo counties.

Derek Norman, 23 and Robert Blaudow, 39, from Memphis, Tenn., were in the Bay Area for a conference and decided to get married at the Alameda County clerk's office.

"We might wait a long time in Tennessee, so this is our chance," Blaudow said.

First in line to pick up a marriage license in Sonoma were Melanie Phoenix, 47, and Terry Robinson, 48, of Santa Rosa. They have been together for almost 26 years and plan to wed in August.

"It's an historic occasion," Phoenix said. "I never believed it was really possible until Gavin Newsom took the first step in 2004."

In February 2004, Newsom decided to challenge California's marriage laws by issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

In the month that followed, more than 4,000 same-sex couples were married before a judge acting on petitions brought by gay marriage opponents halted the city's spree. The state Supreme Court ultimately voided those unions, but two dozen couples sued and those lawsuits led the same court last month to overturn California's ban on gay marriage.

Among the plaintiffs in those lawsuits was a couple married Monday in a Jewish ceremony in front of the Beverly Hills courthouse.

The ceremony between Robin Tyler and Diane Olson was broadcast live on three newscasts in Los Angeles.

The couple wept and pressed their foreheads together, and onlookers whooped as the marriage became valid.

Rabbi Denise Eger saluted the couple for "these many years of coming to this very place and standing on these courthouse steps year after year of being denied this right, this civil right."
