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

in exchange for infinite women

they signal so hard

and therefore they cuck on immigration and on race identity really hard

they didn't use to

That's because they were threatened by jews

that migth be the case

we'll hide from the jews in the trees

but they were also being boycotted

other schools wouldn't play BYU in sporting events

and speak wood elf

fam we should become the wood elves

I think it’s fine for groups like Mormons to be some kind of semi-autonomous entity within an ethnostate.

@Orchid unusual choice of pin

why that of all things?

But normal existence side by side probably isn’t desirable.

why not? If its not pinned this conversation will be buried forever

ah ok

I repsect mormons and love them

I just feel like I've grown out of that community
