What I quoted was from the BoM. Either Western powers referenced the BoM when deciding on the Jewish state, or Joseph Smith was one inspired dude.
that's what I hate about millenial thinking. The idea that when things are going to hell, they are going right.

Wake up. We're supposed to build a better world. We are supposed to be just.

I have a Jewish colleague who told me, "you know what I like about Mormons? Like Jews, they believe the world can be redeemed."

GBH has specifically counseled against this crap kind of millenial thinking.
