Joseph Smith was brilliant in making it so later “revelations” overruled Scripture, so any contradictions could be waved away. It’s also funny that the current LDS doesn’t even follow Joseph Smith’s words.

Exactly correct!

Just try quoting the “King Follet Discourse” or the “Journal of Discourses” to an LDS member, and they really get uncomfortable.

I remember Gordon Hinckley refuted the idea that LDS believe they will become gods. He said: “I’m not sure that we believe that...”

Just wow!
