No, Wikipedia is not definitive or authoritative. As for the "god controversy," I am not sure which controversy you have in mind. Do you mean the doctrine that men may become the sons of God and therefore be called gods? I discussed that in my previous posts (27 and 32).
By the way, I’ve heard the “god” of a planet story from a couple different Mormons trying to convert me. Once it was a lawyer for the hydroponics farm where they used magic water to make their plants grow (you can’t make this stuff up).
He really said "magic water"? I suspect that someone has been pulling your leg.
“He really said “magic water”? I suspect that someone has been pulling your leg.”
It was the hydoponics farm owner who used the magic water statement. It was his lawyer who told me I could become a God on a planet with multiple Celestial wives. The hydoponics farm was just a stones throw from the Chicken Brothel in Pahrump (or maybe it was the Cherry Patch, I forget).
Which is not to be out done by the business partner who told me he vacuumed the sheeps wool on the wall at the Vegas Temple and the roller marks “magically” disappeared. He lives across the street from the temple. He and his son threatened to beat me up one Christmas, mainly because they were trying to hide the business books. They also got mad at me for trying to kill the Mormon crickets that infested the control room, apparently the crickets were magical or sacred or something.
But what disturbed me the most was the gal I dated who gotten a divorce from a Mormon and had been driven out of the church. That was the first time I suspected how cloistered most Mormons are.
