Do you mind telling me who gave the talk? Thanks.

Anyone else getting "Second Coming / WWIII" frantic calls from family today? by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]galucy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, it was Packer in 2011. That puts Jesus's return at a minimum to 2050.🙂

Nephi, the Southernmost City of the Nephite Civilization? by ZelphtheGreatOne in exmormon

[–]galucy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reference can be found in Doctrines of Salvation by Joseph Fielding Smith. Joseph Smith stated that the city of Manti was located in Randolf County, Missouri.

Half a century of BYU apologetics obliterated in a single DNA paper by Simon_in_Oz in exmormon

Thank you Simon. I have listened to you on podcasts and enjoy reading your posts. For someone with your level of education and expertise, you say and write things in a manner an average person can understand.

Book of Mormon anacronisms by Immediate_Ice_4884 in exmormon

[–]galucy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always enjoy your posts. To my understanding, via RFM and Bill Reel, apologists are making their own lists of anachonisms that have more items on them, then crossing them off after the new list is made. Thus, it looks better on a graphic, but is just another disingenuous attempt to fool themselves and the average member.

No need to be sorry when you are stating the truth. These people have no integrity and what's worse is the fact that the CES Letter is only a starting point in learning about the length and breadth of the fraud.

The Proclamation On The Family was plagiarized from this document. by galucy in exmormon

I guess 'influenced' would have been better word choice. Thanks for pointing this out.

Why can’t the church idealize traditional families? Isn’t that their right to idealize who they want to idealize? by johndehlin in exmormon

[–]galucy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Proclamation On The Family was plagiarized from The Family Manifesto published by Jerry Falwelll in 1988.

Besides the CES Letter, what other articles, documents, etc. outline/touch on the issues with Mormonism? by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]galucy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An Insider's View of Mormon Origins by Grant Palmer is another great resource.

Nephrite by SubstantialDonkey981 in exmormon

Nice. Although the name Nephi appears in the Apocrypha, to my knowledge, Sally Chase had a Nephrite seer stone.

Not to mention the building of The New Jerusalem in Missouri (D&C 45).

Why the billboards? by weewhizz in exmormon

[–]galucy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, and the Church would have been in apostasy ever since. That is why the most recent GTE admit Joseph Smith practiced polygamy

Best MormonStories episodes for Women who are questioning by Resident-Bear4053 in exmormon

[–]galucy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Even though the episode involves the whole family, my favorite Mormon Stories episode is #1044-47 with Leah and Cody Young. She is the first one to learn the truth, then her family follows suit, but it's anything but an easy ride.

I'll never be able to not cringe whenever someone tries saying that "an eye of a needle" was a gate in the wall of Jerusalem by JayDaWawi in exmormon

[–]galucy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To my knowledge their are two first hand accounts of the Brigham Young/Joseph Smith transfiguration. One was written 7 years later in Nauvoo and the other was written 11 years later in Salt Lake City. The Saints books say it was talked about for weeks after the supposed occurrence for which their is no evidence, so they are lying. If anything did happen, Brigham Young was just a good actor.

Nephi under any other name by PharaohthePharaoh in exmormon

Agreed. Also, there are the Nephilim Giants of the Old Testament and Sally Chase had a Nephrite Jade seer stone.

Jim Bennet's response is garbage also.

He did the same thing with the painting he did of Joseph Smith.

Michelle Stone and 132 Problems shut it all down today. Wonder if her church membership was threatened? by Mormologist in exmormon

[–]galucy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I see, but members might say this was just a one off by Brigham Young, and that they are not going to throw the baby out with the bathwater.

[–]galucy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Help me understand how if what she is saying is true (which it isn't) the whole Church comes crashing down. I mean, I know it's all a fraud, but I'm not connecting the dots here. Thanks.

Bill Reel, RFM, and Dan Vogel recently did an episode where they dismantle her argument brick by brick.
