It’s not even sunrise, and your post is starting my day with an “Oh, SHIZ!!” moment. I clutch my coffee mug for comfort.

We’ve joked about Mormon fantasticalisms for years, but it’s not funny anymore: how do so many intelligent people believe this concocted poppycock!!?

The 19th century was chock full of pied pipers & charlatans & snake oil salesmen, but it seems that Joseph Smith alone has maintained his horde of deluded followers, modern DNA & archaeological methods notwithstanding.

A North American empire of white & delightsome blond Hebrews wiped out by dark skinned Jewish Indians without a trace left behind.....it boggles the (non-Mormon) mind.

No mention of COFFEE without pinging one of my favorite ex-Mormons: Utah Binger.

Ironically...Laughingly...yet quite sad.
