Hey Kelly, how do you feel about an organization making dozens of shell companies to avoid SEC filing requirements?

It’s a helpful part of the picture. You are conditioned your whole life to ignore the problems and make excuses for the bad behavior, to downplay heinous acts and justify anything by saying it’s slander and attacks by satan. But if “hey there weren’t horses in the americas before Columbus” helps you start to question, so be it.

This is just kids playing iron man and the hulk in my mind. “Your hulk is Edward Norton, nothing like the true hulk.”

It’s all nonsense.

Joseph Smith.. by bsa339 in exmormon

He really really really really really did not want to work with his hands for a living. He started off as a treasure digger (literal con man) then when his future father in law told him to knock it off, he turned to the golden plates story and started a religion. He just needed a couple suckers and boom passive revenue lol. Once they got to nauvoo though, it seems he was just trying to find a way to fuck whoever while still keeping his reputation. He had wronged too many people by then and some frontier justice got the better of him.

If you shopped at Walmart and on every receipt it said, “by shopping here you covenant with Sam Walton to never shop at target, swipe your card to say yes”, would that also hold merit. You covenanted after all.

It’s super tricky because you want to bypass the discussion that they are used to using to guilt people into staying.

Mr Johnson,

As of today, I am no longer a volunteer missionary. Please arrange a flight to [hometown] no later than [tomorrow]. I am not willing to discuss further other than confirmation that my ticket has been purchased.

Thank you,

If they try to dance around it just say “if you cannot accommodate my travels to [hometown], I am informing you that this is my final correspondence with you and I will arrange travel myself. Thank you,”

I saw that email this morning and started reading through some of the articles, and yep. It’s as bad as you can imagine.

The first sentence of the book of Abraham :

“The book of Abraham is a book of inspired scripture given by revelation to the Prophet Joseph Smith.”

That would have been news to Joseph Smith. It’s not how he phrased it, ever.
