I get the BYU channel on my cable and am amazed at what the Mormon’s believe about this con artist and former fleeing felon (fled from New York and Kirtland, Ohio following a $30,000 swindle . . . lots of money back then) in that they call him a prophet and sit him next to Jesus at the Pearly Gates.
I’m absolutely amazed that this huge religion was founded on such a sleezy and almost criminal foundation. Seers, magical stones, disappearing gold plates, “reformed Egyptian” (a language even the Egyptians said doesn’t exist), gods all over the place, Central American Indian history that never existed, Lucifer as Christ’s brother, God himself as a former human being, and blah blah blah.
These are well-meaning and apparently intelligent people for the most part who, for some reason, actually believe the malarkey that this Joseph Smith, Jr., spun lo those almost 200 years ago. Incredible.
there are fallen spiritual forces behind the lds church ....
there is no accident or happenstance about it ...
