Determined to be Bad

If you’ve ever wanted to be bad, really bad, think about what happened to these two guys, Coriantumr and Shiz.

They fought literally to the death and caused the death of millions of people in wars just because they chose to be bad and wouldn’t stop being bad.

Coriantumr actually tried a couple times to fix things up but he just went right back to his bad ways.

“He saw that there had been slain by the sword already nearly two millions of his people, and he began to sorrow in his heart… and [he] repented not of [his] iniquity.”

Being determined to be bad, is bad.

- Ether 15:1-34
