This was a weird one. We've just moved from one end of the country to the other. We gave many pounds of usable items to Goodwill before the move, but since arriving, DW has been paring the load even more, and made several more boxes for Goodwill. She's been after me for a couple of weeks to get them all together for a drop-off at the big Goodwill store her.
I noticed that she had a few books in there that I wanted to keep, so I went through all of them and found out that she had jettisoned all the Mormon-published books. Fine with me. I just thought that it was weird to do so. Miracle of Forgiveness wasn't included, unfortunately. But it was odd that she had thrown out her father's copy of Teachings of the Joseph Smith. I salvaged that one because of it's potential value when having to point out doctrines that TBMs deny all the time.
Anyway, it was weird stuff for me to have her throw them all away, and I had to wonder why. I didn't ask, though. I hope that the books will now fall into the hands of some local religious leaders who can use them to teach their congregation.
