I have challenged him to show his claims using our scriptures the doctrines he claims.

To have to refute someone who, like Walter Martin, grabbed tidbits here and there to sensationalize is ridiculous. One could spend all day doing it. It is why the proof lies with the one who makes the claim. Because we have hundreds of pages of scriptures, he has ample to go through and show our doctrine using it. If he can do it, he surely will.
I understand LDSinc. And today's TBMs wanting to wish it all away by stating, (documents and are not considered our doctrine.) However your LDSinc. Doctrine is wrapped up in all these so called historical documents.
Let's take point one of James. Do you deny LDSic. Teach members of the LDS in good standing can become god's and goddess?
