Such a supremely dumb religion. If you’re ever bored, look into its history and be completely dumbfounded by the fact that people believe this shit in 2023.

    Decolonized Buffalo podcast had a fascinating episode on Mormons, who, in addition to their numerous bizarre beliefs, believe they are the true indigenous peoples of the Americas. Also want to do a shoutout to the Mormons in the FBI currently reading this while dying of boredom without a single drop of coffee.

      Imo, believe whatever bizarre shit you want, but these goons have control over an entire US state and have reached positions of influence in the government

        The Mormon church should be dismantled and its congregation persecuted to the fullest extent. I bet they would make nice organ donors.

        The church also controls vast amounts of real estate and assets. Not "secrelty controlling the world" conspiracy theory stuff, but definitely "This is a business pretending to be a church and they need to be taxed and regulated" stuff.

      They dont believe they are the true indigenous people. They believe the indigenous people came from Israel, and that the book of Mormon was written by them

      Who knows. A few times a year they might be involved in horrific spiritual warfare by going to Starbucks.

        I'm told that Utah has a thriving set of soda shop franchises to meet the needs of an entirely sober, caffeinated, and repressed population and that's very something.
