AUTHOR PROFILE
Susan Easton Black
Susan Easton Black is described in biographical records as an American historian (born 1944). The selections gathered here touch on apostate. This profile brings the attributed quotations together with their available source information.
Perhaps it is helpful to note here, with respect to apostate movements, that in any apostasy there are the deliberate initiators and perpetrators of lies (see 1 Nephi 13:27; Jacob 4:14; Moses 1:41), but there is usually also a larger group of innocent and well-intentioned victims (see 1 Nephi 13:29; D&C 123:12). Not all promoters of false ideas have malignant intent; most are to some extent the victims of those who have gone before.— Susan Easton Black
