I would like to hear these discrepencies as I am in a debate on a religious forum and almost all of them agree that the BOM releases no information not already accepted by most christianity. They have a problem with Doctrine and Covenants and The POGP.
You seem to have dodged around my statement. Who knows why God wanted them back maybe they had a work to do on the other side, maybe it was God's means of bringing relief to their family maybe it was so that the Girl met you or recieved help from you. No one knows the mind or will of God but having said that I am not disagreeing that this girls life may have been terrible but to say God is evil for not intervening. I know many who have had terrible lives where their mother walked out on them their father sexually abused them and threw them through walls. where they went for weeks without a decent meal and yet they still thought that God had blessed them. Life is a trial whether anyone wants to believe it or not it is a proving ground for the religious and for the non it is an unfair existance that is ended too quickly.
All I know is that God took them home for a reason and this girl stayed for a reason it is time to find out what that reason is.

And here is my problem with what you are saying....You DONT "know" that "God" took them home for a reason. That is what I dont like about religion, there are a whole lot of assumptions and not any proof.
Clearly we aren't going to see each others point of view on this topic, so at this point the whole religious debate in regards to whether its real or not (in this thread) is over for me. I live in Utah, so clearly I know how pointless it is to keep debating with a Mormon about their religion. I have yet to ever find one who would criticize anything about their own religion or admit any of its innaccuracies or faults. And you know what....Thats fine, at the end of the day it doesn't affect me at all. I am happy with the knowledge that I have and the life that I lead.
All im going to say in closing is that if there truly is a God and he/she/it has allowed all of these problems in the world to take place. All the pain and suffering and misery in the world......The honestly I think he/she/it is sick and wacky and I want nothing to do with "God"
Some of you have reasons you can come up with as to why "God" allows these things to take place. Thats fine, I respect your beliefs. Im just saying for me that I would rather that there isnt a god, because if there is one, then with my logic its not a "nice" God lol.
