Answer to Peggy Fletcher Stack of the Salt Lake tribune in her editorial on Brian David Mitchell, the false prophet:
The ignorance of the true nature of man is the problem here. Darwinism being incorrect, men are helpless to discover the moving cause of evil. Evil exists. A respect of theological principles, or the "science of theology" as Parley Pratt phrased it, would equip the world to judge such characters. This man, Brian David Mitchel, is guilty of violating the law of God as well as the laws of man. But because these laws are generally ignored and ridiculed by academia and the media, mankind is more or less helpless against these evils. This man could have been detected early on, and dealt with in the prescribe manner had mankind not abandoned the law of God individually and nationallly. According to the law of God in ancient Israel, this man would have been destroyed and Elizabeth Smart and her family would have been spared the depravity of society which passes for liberalism and the faint of heart, those whose hearts bleed for murderers. A knowledge of the law of God would have exposed this character by a simple analysis of the contradictions this man undoubtedly posed. To anti-religious bigots, all humble followers of Christ are necessarily tarred with the same brush, of instability. But this falls into the rubric of one anti-Christ who stated: 16 Ye look forward and say that ye see a remission of your sins. But behold, it is the effect of a frenzied mind; and this derangement of your minds comes because of the traditions of your fathers, which lead you away into a belief of things which are not so.
(Alma 30:16)
So anti-Christs compare true prophets to the basest of men when rejecting true ones, through ignorance.
