that they were the aggressor from the start, and they made up a whole book of religion to ruin us

that doesn't seem very likely to me

I agree tbh

as always, far too much is being attributed to them

i hope you share these ideals at church and aren't just blowing smoke @Exilarch

Parasite elaborate

You are a church goer?

yes

sorry to interrupt, but which kind?

Mormon

ur serious?

yes, however I am now effectively inactive

You have a platfrom to speak upon at church, you have a group of people willing to listen.

they screwed up their own religion too, following the same pattern as the other christians

Do you voice your views

wow what the fuck look at this

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_James_Version
```The King James Version (KJV), also known as the King James Bible (KJB) or simply the Authorized Version (AV), is an English translation of the Christian Bible for the Church of England begun in 1604 and completed in 1611.[a] The books of the King James Version include the 39 books of the Old Testament, an intertestamental section containing 14 books of the Apocrypha (most of which correspond to books in the Vulgate Deuterocanon adhered to by Roman Catholics), and the 27 books of the New Testament.```

or do you sit there.

in the 1600s there were 14 additional books of the bible included in the KJV

now considered apocryphal

just in the last 400 years of dalitianity, they have removed 14 entire books from the KJV

those 14 books must've contradicted their platform of liberte, egalite, farternite

I discuss my thoughts pretty openly and I don't pull punches, but I don't like to do it at church anymore

primarily because they control the venue

weak

I'll happily discuss my thoughts with mormons at a neutral location

do it at church

so Joseph Smith received revelation from The Almighty?

do you believe that?

Joseph Smith was smart enough to know people are dumb and easily influenced

which is why @Exilarch should enforce his views at his local gatherings

lol. People who've been taught to worship human beings are dumb.

then Mormonism needs to be drastically reinvented.

Mormons don't worship Joseph Smith

yes I believe that @spacetimed

no, mormons worship the doctrine of Spencer W. Kimball (who contradicted every prophet before him hugely) and also the BYU honor code

and Mitt Romney and general conservadad republicanism

what actual God might have revealed to Joseph Smith or Brigham Young, these are of secondary importance, and if they contradict the former, are bitterly stigmatized

as far as I can tell, FLDS are correct

Do mormons believe his story?

Joseph Smith's? Yeah it stands to reason, but fun fact, that story is tampered as well
