Is it a Faith Crisis or Truth Crisis Within Mormonism? BYP LIVE Show Tonight

Tonight's show with the Backyard Professor exploring a blog of one of the main editors of the BYU Studies Mormon periodical for the last 17 years. Solid insights and ideas that are difficult to grasp and for which the Sept 6 were excommunicated. Today we can talk about the real issues without that fear, amazingly enough. Now the question becomes, with all the actual problems, why stay in as this gent advocates to do? LOTS to discuss tonight! See you all there.

So many wonderful things are ahead. In coming days, we will see the greatest manifestations of the Savior’s power that the world has ever seen. Between now and the time He returns “with power and great glory,” (Joseph Smith-Matthew 1:36), He will bestow countless privileges, blessings, and miracles upon the faithful.

You're a dead man, 99 Nelson bottles of beer on the wall. You ain't gonna see Jesuz come back, not now and not ever! Prepare to be lowered into a casket and be eaten of worms you awful man. You are a false prophet and a liar for the Lord! Take the Book of Abraham and shove it down your throat!

Jesuz is not coming back. Not even in a thousand years!

Piss off, false prophet.

It's a faith crisis due to a truth crisis because of a trust crisis. Hell, they're still sending out young, ill-informed and mis-informed young men and women to teach a narrative to people who might actually be interested in this 'church' that they admitted 10 years ago in essays isn't how it actually happened. That is a HUGE honesty, integrity, trust, faith and truth problem! :lol: But if they were to be honest and tell the truth, no one would join, members would begin leaving in droves and their big nest egg would be in jeopardy, can't have that, these guys have earned their hundreds of billions and deserve every penny they can get their hands on! :x

Philo just wants to sin. He's sold his soul for a cup of something!

I would say a faith crisis or a crisis of faith is when you are struggling to believe but want to keep trying and want to find your faith. It is no longer a crisis when you get over that hurdle and that fear that you might go to hell if you choose to allow yourself to not believe.
