Just a thought ~ if you read my background page you know I've been mounting a small campaign against a church movement many of its ex members see as a cult for many years ~ their problem is a VERY high infant mortality rate, childhood mortality rate, and adult mortality rate.

I've had family members who were members of that church die from bleeding out after giving birth. Others died of curable viral infections.

I've spent upwards of 40 years finding information about this crowd because my people LEFT THEM BEHIND ~ but now is the time to CURE THE PROBLEM.

To my delight I"ve found former members and state attorney generals who see it my way. We must cure the problem even if we have to send every single one of them to prison!

Which is fine.

Along the way I discovered that this movement or church group had a guy named Joseph Smith as a member ~ one of the congregations has a record of his membership. Some of the congregations followed after him for a while and still have their first edition Book of Mormon ~ which they all keep as an antique, but not as a spiritual guide.

Most of them never got wrapped up with the Mormons.

I'll credit the Mormons with only one thing ~ their infant and maternal death rates are certainly lower than the Apostolic Church of the First Born, but there are things that need "fixed". I see no reason to get into the details when it comes to their religious practices though, but I'll tell you if there were a guy who wanted to be the Republican candidate for President and he had a strong Church of the First Born background I'd fight his candidacy with every thing I could muster.

I am sure some Mormons would agree with me ~ and that's one of the problems that needs "fixed". ALL Mormons should agree that this particular church's practices should be squarshed like a bug ~ but they don't.

Until I see all the intramountain West attorney generals leaping on these guys there'll be continuing levels of distrust.
