Allow me to provide a quote or two from the original Hubris artist himself, Joseph Smith, re: where Mormons get that from...
Now...I don't have to go to some deep and dark obscure archive to find it. The Mormon church thought it was so important it to include it in their "best of" Joseph Smith quotes, it got inclusion in the 2007 book, Teachings of Presidents: Joseph Smith.
THERE IS A SUPER INTELLIGENCE bestowed upon such as obey the [Mormon version of the] Gospel with full purpose of heart, which, if sinned against, the apostate is left naked and destitute of the Spirit of God, and he is, in truth, nigh unto cursing, and his end is to be burned. (p. 321)
So there ya have it, Joseph Smith spouting off about Mormon "super intelligence" that if such a Mormon is sinned against, why an "apostate" must have done it, and God's Spirit will be withdrawn from such a person who will be cursed -- and burned -- in hell no doubt.
(Earlier in that same book (p. 219), Smith is going on and on how revelations to him are "records from the eternal world"...and then concludes that a given vision is "so much beyond the narrow-mindedness of men, that every HONEST man is constrained to exclaim, 'It came from God.'" ... Well, of course that means that if you happen to disagree with Joseph Smith, then Smith and the Mormon leadership presumes our very DIShonesty)
Elitims to its core...No wonder Elsie posts that "I'm superior" list by Mormons.
