""""BTW, they also ‘married’ and ‘endowed’ Jesus Christ.""""

Oh yes, I did read that one. I believe they also Dead Dunked HIM as well.

Still dunking the Jews? How pathetic, these people are literally CRAZY, CRAZY, CRAZY.

Do you think many new converts really know this stuff? How long did it take you to figure it out? I am a curious sort, lol, and I enjoyed reading the EXmo's discussing this on that link I just gave. Some of them are really mad about being LIED to.

I just had a theory and it goes to Control of the peons. You know when you get something in the mail, and it has all those scratch off thingys, or stickers to attach to something on another page? It is all designed to give you something to do, thinking you have done your job and you are going to win. Keep them occupied and no time to think.

Depends on how you define ‘new’. Under a year? No they usually have no idea. After a year, esp in the US? Probably. After about 5 years (like Beck)? Definitely.

I started learing things like Jesus was married at about the one year mark, but I was also lied to by the missionaries (like about polygamy and becoming Gods) under the guise of ‘milk before meat’ and yeah I was mad too later, when I was leaving. When I found out though I make the excuse of ‘milk before meat’ rather than realizing at the time I was lied to. That came later after a christian bookstore owner in Provo got me mad enough to prove him wrong about some early teachings.

And your control of peons theory is spot on. Mormonism is all about ‘busy work’ and keeping the members from thinking/researching for themselves.
