These guys have no trouble lying to keep the charade going, especially when they are all benefiting so much financially from a multi hundred billion dollar real estate corporation.Yep. It's the money they look at to determine growth or not, no longer people. People continue to become irrelevant to it all.BeNotDeceived wrote: ↑Mon Oct 09, 2023 7:14 pmHe also recently said that the 'church' is not a corporation even though I'm sure he knows the legal name of the 'church' is the 'Corporation of the President'.
Which, if that's the case, why continue to send missionaries out into the world to try and convert people to a con-man's made-up religion??? If 'church' historians know Smith was a charlatan and the FP from 2014 knows he was a charlatan (hence the birth of the essays, which remain largely unknown to the general membership), how can these men atop this garganrtuan corporation not know??? Unless they know but are afraid of what the truth would do to them financially? I've seen a video where Russell Nelson and a female interviewer are having a little discussion on how Smith 'translated' (err, fictitiously orally dictated) the B of M where Nelson purports to show the head in a hat method used but pulls back before putting his head into it almost certainly out of embarrassment and silliness. If these guys know it's all a big sham, yet, still have no problem sending out young people for 1.5 to 2 years wasting their life at their own expense as they sit on hundreds of billions, then that is unrighteousness on a scale that is unfathomable as far as I'm concerned!Philo Sofee wrote: ↑Tue Oct 10, 2023 1:44 amYep.

Deceived, It seems to me more likely that the leadership and church historians think Joseph was a true prophet and the Book of Mormon real history revealed by the power of God.BeNotDeceived wrote: ↑Tue Oct 10, 2023 7:39 pmWhich, if that's the case, why continue to send missionaries out into the world to try and convert people to a con-man's made-up religion???

My own opinion is that conversion of the missionaries themselves is an important part of the equation.BeNotDeceived wrote: ↑Tue Oct 10, 2023 7:39 pmWhich, if that's the case, why continue to send missionaries out into the world to try and convert people to a con-man's made-up religion???
