Roadkill on the Menu for Jaredites

 February 1 — Ether 9:34 “And it came to pass that the people did follow the course of the beasts, and did devour the carcasses of them which fell by the way, until they had devoured them all. Now when the people saw that they must perish they began to repent of their iniquities and cry unto the Lord”.

Leviticus 7:24 “And the fat of the beast that dieth of itself, and the fat of that which is torn with beasts, may be used in any other use: but ye shall in no wise eat of it”.

There are times I’m convinced Joseph Smith used God’s word as a road map of how to disobey the Lord. This is obviously one of those times…

With this one I have a few questions so here we go!

1.Wouldn’t the animals be bloated and stink if they’re lying out in the open like this without any refrigeration?

2.What about the health problems this would cause for other animals, not to mention humans?!

3.Were the Jaredites perishing from disobedience or from eating spoiled meat?

If this was taking place down in Mesoamerica the problem is made worse because of the heat.

This sounds so random and out of place. Why would anyone participate in something such as this?

4.Does this sound inspired?

Ask the Mormon you know what they think about this and please, pray for them to turn to the Lord!
