Proof the Church Misleads and Deceives about History

Post by _Kevin Graham »

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xVw6PsSinI

Check out the poor innocent, falsely accused prophet being murdered for absolutely no apparent reason other than the fact that he, like Jesus, was too perfect for this miserable world.

I couldn't stop laughing throughout this movie. Joseph Smith holding back the door with his bare hands as the mob shot bullets from every direction. Black folks walking "900 miles" to see Joseph (wtf?) and then have the honor of him washing their blistering feet (right!!). Two bounty hunters taking Joseph to Missouri, only to be stopped by Mormon militia and then invited by Joseph to be their "guest of honor" at dinner that same night. Every clip had Joseph giving pearls of wisdom to everyone, including lazy husbands who didn't want to do any chores. Joseph Smith in this movie was better than Jesus ever was in the Bible.

The most amazing thing about this is that Mormons are so naïve and have already started praising this as an accurate portrayal of the historical Joseph. They'll hear the hymns constantly playing in the background, and watch the professional actors approach Joseph with sincere eyes as if he were Jesus on the Mount.

Funny how they decided to skip over the Nauvoo Expositor, any mention of polygamy, or the gun Joseph Smith fired back at his attackers, etc...

Proof positive that Red Kevin Graham is not only insane, but willfully so.

Some people are insane, and some people are "unsane." Agency can be used, perversely, in this way.

Yes...perversely.

Nothing is going to startle us more when we pass through the veil to the other side than to realize how well we know our Father [in Heaven] and how familiar his face is to us

You meant "solitary confinement" of course.

Yes, thank you.

At 8:00 one of the "personages" says a complete lie. Meaning it is not contained in the JSH AT ALL

"I am Jesus Christ".


BS!


Then the bull keeps on pushing and out pops more bull manure at 8:15

"I saw God the father, and his son Jesus Christ, they did in reality speak to me. I knew it and I knew that God knew it and I could not deny it."


Solid chunks of bovine excrement become straight diarrhea as it shoots straight from the anus at 8:43
I was told, in the vision, to join non of the churches, but that gospel in it's fullness WAS ABOUT TO BE RESTORED


Go ahead Loran, show us in the JSH where this is recorded.

And some others can (or cannot) spell.
I detest my loose style and my libertine sentiments. I thank God, who has removed from my eyes the veil...

Kevin,

Might I suggest that Mormons in general are not naïve. They do not accept these ridiculous ideas due to a lack of experience and knowledge in general. It is due to 1. Misinformation regarding some specific historical events and 2. A huge desire/fear to believe

Why is it, when you're not able to refute any of his points, you go straight to the ad hominmen? Do you think that makes your position any less weak?

Uh...apathy has got to be up there too. Most LDS, it seems to me, just don't consider the details and specific as all that relevant.
