Seems fake to me.
I think so to. The Mormon bubble can't be that impenetrable can it?
He's got 1 year of posting history on Reddit so it should be fairly easily to spot if so. Hell of a commitment to make an account and sit on it for a year in anticipation for a single troll post.

His posting history has some colorful language that would make a TBM blush. Maybe he is a NOM of a new sort.

It's not fake. A similar thing just happened to me. I was agnostic 10 minutes ago, now I am a TBM who feels the Holy Ghost.

Okay. You have a point there.

Drumdude, I'm a member. How is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints controlling my mind?
Why do you believe in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints?

They don’t have to control a mind that controls itself. You don’t read crap and you choose tribalism because *reasons*. You’re the perfect Mormon.
Doc, are you saying you don’t have reasons for believing the way you believe? What's wrong with me having reasons for believing the way I believe?

KEVIN Would you still belief if it was shown that Smith's intrepretations of the facsimiles were wrong?

6 hours? I bet he would have left the Church in 3 hours if he had visited SeN and read some posts by Midge and DCP.

Back in Autumn 1976 as a seventeen-year-old, I asked God if the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was true, and God told me yes. That's why I believe in that Church.
