One nice thing about claiming to speak for God is that your biases and prejudices happen to also be shared with the creator of the universe. And God has made it clear through his chosen representatives how we should feel about marriage equality. So I’m afraid that any hope for God condoning gay marr...

Although I did roll my eyes a significant amount of times while reading President Nelson’s talk I think he deserves some points for at least trying to address the reason for the quick reversal of the 2015 revelation. The easiest and simplest path is to ignore that it happened at all. Well, I guess h...

I think the horn of Devine Command Theory fits quite snuggly and comfortably in Mormonism’s soft underbelly. It’s just that the scriptures provide so many embarrassing and uncomfortable examples of God being a monster. And the excuse that “God’s ways are not man’s ways” is pretty lame excuse to just...

I don’t understand why people get so hung up about the idea of God authorizing the killing of a passed out drunk guy or some bears mauling a bunch of kids. I sure do want due process if its mere mortals that are passing judgement but that’s not what’s going on here. We have to assume that an all-kno...

I like to imagine God flying around space with a butterfly net catching and herding all the stray intelligences, which, you know, are just floating around. Then stuffing the intelligences in a jar to save for later spiritual birth. I think it seems logical to assume that spiritual intercourse, devel...

Contains writings that cannot be revealed unto the world; but is to be had in the Holy Temple of God. I think that it’s important for leaders of cults, religions, or what have you, to tease this kind of stuff. When Jesus came to the Americas only a “hundredth part” was recorded. And don’t forget ab...

When I become a God and need to get the whole thing started, I’m pretty sure I’m going to use the “Let there be light” quote because it so badass. I don’t think I’m going to give credit to Elohim who for all we know probably ripped it off from some other God.

I like the picture of Eve and the talking snake too. Even if the artist is an anti-feminist traitor. Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined that the Mother of All Living could be a red-head. I do have one small criticism about the snake though. I was always taught that an actual talking sn...

I think Brother Millet is trying to tell us that the Holy Ghost isn’t one dimensional. As a missionary I learned that the fruits of the Spirit are love, joy, peace, kindness, goodness etc. And I used that scripture as evidence that people should believe the things that I was teaching them. You see, ...

I don’t recall Joseph saying that he shook Moroni’s hand, or even God or Jesus for that matter. This whole thing could be a Satanic deception right from the get-go.
