Is it the missiles that make you wonder, or the Happy Meal?
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.

UT Senate Candidate Vows To Take Down ‘Least Productive Senator’ Mike Lee
I am very much favorably impressed with what I've seen and heard about Evan McMullin so far, much more so than with any current Republican candidates I know anything about for U.S. Senate (or any other political office, for that matter) and even some Democrat candidates. If I were a Utah resident, I would definitely vote for him -- perhaps even if his only opponent in the Utah Senate race were a Democrat. I think we need more competent, honest and dedicated people in government office who are not slavishly devoted to either of the two major parties.
The Utah senate race has a unique spin with incumbent Mike Lee being challenged by an Independent. Senate Candidate Evan McMullin joins Shermichael Singleton to discuss his effort to unseat Lee in his home state.
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Not sure if you meant to post this link without any explanation?

I wanted to express my views on McMullin and the Utah Senatorial race thread that started out in the Spirit Paradise forum. I used the search function to find McMullin's name, and discovered to my dismay that the original thread had been banished to the Spirit Prison forum for some reason. Here again is the link to the video that I referred to in my post that got added to Spirit Prison thread, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6Vdc_wXt88
and here is a copy of what I had to say about it.

Gunnar, you saw the split but may have missed the portion still in SP. Is this what you were looking for, below?

ETA - in case the post added to the Prison version was a mistake, I can insert that into the Paradise thread, and then merge this one with that. Let me know if you want to do this. Thanks!

Yes. That is what I was looking for, and I would appreciate you merging it as you suggested. Thanks!

Then it's a good thing he reposted it here, isn't it?
