I used to be married to a Mormon and I’ve had enough up-close-and-personal exposure to that so-called religion to know that its public façade is nothing like the mumbo-jumbo cultic behavior that goes on in private. Calling them “Christians” is like calling the Norks “democrats” because their country’s official name is the “Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.”

Total hogwash. And, if the Heavenly Father is not a created being, how could he be a “glorified man?” Aren’t men the product of divine creation?

Forget about using reason with them. Mormon “theology” is a mish-mash invented by a corrupt, fallen Baptist preacher-—Sidney Rigdon-—and what he cooked up with his willing and gullible pupil, Joe Smith.

The whole thing is a scheme about sex, power, and money. A chance for men to have nearly unlimited sex, own tracts of property, and develop political power by playing the right pseudo-religious game. Their “theology” developed among Smith and Young and their “disciples” while they sat around pot-bellied stoves drinking whiskey. And, yes, they drank like fish. Joe Smith was known as the “Jolly Prophet” by his neighbors for his state of almost constant inebriation.

With the Mormons, what was good for the goose was never good for the gander. How many of todays teetotalers have any idea?

Worth a repost. You get it.

And some Mormons eventually get it and get out (see tagline).

Well, a big yes, on everything you said in #133. The truth and nothing but the truth, You couldn't print the "whole truth" about Mormonism and their false prophet(s), you wouldn't have had room.
