New LDS Online Scripture Search Utility- Conspiracy? Part Two

As a follow up to the last post, I still have not done much playing around in the new scripture searching software and therefore still do not have an opinion on it, however, I did go to an old article on the anarchist site regarding priesthood and clicked on one of the live links.

I was delighted to see that the links still work!

Interestingly, they don't take you to the old software, they take you to the referenced verses in the new software.

Here is the paragraph from an old article

For behold, by the power of his word [priesthood] man came upon the face of the earth, which earth was created by the power of his word [priesthood]. Wherefore, if God being able to speak [priesthood] and the world was, and to speak [priesthood] and man was created, O then, why not able to command the earth, or the workmanship of his hands upon the face of it, according to his will and pleasure? (Jacob 4: 9)


Here is the actual URL it took me to-

http://lds.org/scriptures/bofm/jacob/4.9?lang=eng\#9

I am obviously not a programmer, but it appears that the new program is really just a variation of the old program for the two of them to be able to seamlessly interface with each other... although I guess with some additional programming they could have still accomplished the same thing.

I had heard that the old software would still be online for a few months. If anyone knows how to access it please let men know.

This is really good news and it just goes to show that there is not a communist under every single rock!
