they aren't my nation
they have their own thing
It's a book by James mason
They seem to be one of the last bastions of whiteness left in America, even though they're a bit off
for example, to make any progress politically here, even in local politics, you have to be mormon
and you have to signal it really hard, which is kinda lame
I think I could get along really well with christians, as long as wel have the same values... mormons are kinda cucked
they literally believe we'll have world peace once we all become mormon
they're universalists
that up load failed
READ
to be fair every religion believes that Marlow
yeah but mormons are particularly adamant about it
it's a great community
but it's kinda culty
like you have to really buy into all of it... all of the weird stories
and when you don't, it shows... and it's hard to really "become one" when it's so odd
people joke around about Christians like, "you believe in zombie jew, kike on a pike lol"
but that's not really what Christianity is about
Christianity is a community rooted in tradition... it's a way to see yourself and the world. It's a conversation you have about reality and morality across generations
"Yeah, Joseph Smith! Totally bro!"
but with Mormons, before you're baptized, you're interviewed and asked if you really do believe the crazy stories
Wanna snort some coke, drink some rum and fuck some bitches? Mormons do that right?
like you need to really believe Joseph Smith saw God and Jesus, and an angel gave him gold plates written by ancient trans-oceanic sea-faring jews from 600 BS, who sailed to America from the Arabian Peninsula, and that Joseph Smith translated these gold plates by putting a rock into a hat, and reading the words god put on the rock
like, there are sooooo many leaps of faith you have to make
And for me it was becoming difficult maintaining my faith in all of that
like there was this long-standing policy where blacks couldn't hold the priesthood in the church
they were basically second class citizens if they did join
Ayo I'm gunna leap into dat mormon virgin pussy
who cares about anything else?
is that a bad thing marlow?
the bit about blacks
and the justification for this was that before we were all born we were spirits who fought a war in heaven against satan and the spirits who allied with him, and the spirits who were kinda on the fence about it all were punished in this life by being black
no it's not bad to believe all that
I get it
but in 1978 the church reversed it's stance on it
and now they pretend like it never happened
like all that shit was just some kind of glitch
Well we can recruit the ethnostate by saying we'll revive the system
and they go really really far into the whole "w're totally not racists!" shtick
